Tool Concept
Non-dressable CBN profile grinding wheels consisting of a hardened and precision ground steel base body with a single layer of CBN galvanically applied to the wheel form.
|
Features
The grinding adapter of the machine carries two exchangeable grinding spindles shifted into working position via the Z-axis. This arrangement enables the stock removal to be divided into rough and finish grinding operations, and also to grind workpieces having two or more dissimilar gear members in one single setup. The grinding spindles are available in different sizes so that CBN profile grinding wheels ranging from about 20-200 mm (0.8ìn-8in) diameter can be used.

Options
For the use of dressable grinding wheels the machine can be equipped with a CNC-controlled dressing unit. The dressing unit can generate any desired grinding wheel profile.[ VAS P ]
On-board gear measuring system for in-process inspection of the following gear elements (per DIN 3960):
- Profile
- Lead
- Pitch
- Tooth thickness
Values are measured by a touch probe installed in the working area, then processed by the machine control D200 and displayed on the screen, or plotted and printed out.
Topological grinding:
KAPP has developed the necessary software for topological modifications of the tooth flanks to meet specific gear requirements. Modifications of this type can be introduced on the profile (involute crown) and on the lead (lead crown) of the gear.
