The Oliver Automatic CV Joint
Grinder has been designed for fast, precise, automatic grinding of the ball tracks and
cage windows of a constant velocity joint. One machine can be set up to grind all
three parts of the joint in three different setups or a dedicated machine can grind just
one part of the joint.
MORE ACCURACY
Rebuilders can correct worn out
joint to more precision than new in many cases. All six balls and grooves when ground on
our machines will do equal work creating a smoother running and much longer lasting joint.
REDUCED LABOR COST
Due to the automatic grinding cycle,
the operator is free to set up the next part and/or run more than one machine.
REDUCED GRINDING TIME
Because of machine rigidity, high
horsepower, CBN plated grinding wheels and high pressure coolant, full depth stock removal
can be accomplished in one pass grinding. This means the grind cycle time for all
three parts of the CV joint, ready for assembly, is less than five minutes total. |
OPTIONS
Options include coolant mist
collection system and special low priced gages are available.
COOLANT AND COOLANT FILTRATION
The machine comes equipped with a 60
PSI water soluble coolant system with a Whirlstream Hydrocyclone Filtration unit.
With this state-of-the-art coolant system, no heat is generated in the grinding process
eliminating the possibility of overheating the ball groove and annealing the part.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Package is complete with an air
operated hydraulic system.
GRINDING WHEELS
The latest technology in CBN
grinding wheels is used on this machine. Special coating and make up of the wheel
blank is used to enhance chip removal and provide a longer lasting wheel. Wheel
blanks can be stripped and recoated up to four times. |
