Application:

The tool post grinder allows valves of large diesel engines to be reground on a lathe.

Operation:

The tool post grinder is clamped into the lathe’s tool holder.
A setting arbor clamped in the lathe chuck is used to set the grinding angle corresponding to the valve seat angle.
The compound rest of the lathe, carrying the tool holder and tool post grinder, is then swiveled until the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel runs parallel to the conical surface of the setting arbor. Next, the setting arbor is replaced with the valve clamped in the lathe chuck and ground at the preset seat angle.

Features:

The grinding wheel is protected by a safety-compliant protective guard. The grinding spindle is completely maintenance-free.
The conical surface of the setting arbor features a locating bore for the dressing diamond, allowing the grinding wheel to be dressed effortlessly after
adjusting the grinding angle. A switch for turning the grinder on and off is mounted on the motor terminal box.
