Record 2 2015-04-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Precision Grinding
CONT

Surface grinding is performed on two basic types of machines. These are the horizontal spindle and vertical spindle surface grinding machines. Either type may be obtained with a reciprocating or a rotary table. As with other types of grinding machines the spindle should run true so that there is a constant pressure between the wheel and the work.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Rectification (Usinage)
CONT

Rectifieuse horizontale. Ainsi appelée parce que l'axe de l'arbre porte-meule est horizontal. Ces rectifieuses utilisent des meules plates et servent à exécuter la rectification des surfaces planes, d'évidements ou d'arbres cannelés. La meule peut se déplacer de haut en bas [...] Elle peut, en outre, se déplacer parallèlement à son axe, afin de rectifier la pièce sur toute sa longueur. La pièce, au contraire, possède un seul mouvement dans le sens de sa longueur.

Record 8 1987-12-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Precision Grinding
DEF

A machine developed as a means for accurately locating and grinding holes to size, particularly in hardened steels and carbides; while utilizing the principles of rectilinear positioning as employed in jig boring machines, spindle motion is planetary; the wheel can be outfed accurately while grinding; straight and tapered holes and contours of simple or complex nature can be ground.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Rectification (Usinage)
CONT

Quand la pièce est de forme ou de dimension telles qu'il est impossible de la faire tourner autour de l'axe de l'alésage à rectifier, on a recours aux rectifieuses à mouvement planétaire. On imprime alors un mouvement de rotation à l'axe de la meule.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Rectification (Usinage)
