HORIZONTAL GRINDER [4 records]

Record 1 2015-04-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Industrial Tools and Equipment
  • Waste Management
CONT

Horizontal grinders also use hammermills or fixed knife mills to grind materials, and a set of grates to control particle size. Horizontal grinders have a large, horizontal, conveyor system that moves material laterally towards the mill. Immediately in front of the mill is a large, cleated, feed drum that grabs materials and forces them against the mill. The grinding chamber itself is fully enclosed within the machine.

CONT

Les broyeurs horizontaux utilisent aussi des broyeurs à marteaux ou des broyeurs à couteaux fixes pour broyer des matières, ainsi qu'un ensemble de grilles pour contrôler la taille des particules. Les broyeurs horizontaux ont un gros convoyeur qui déplace la matière vers le broyeur. Un grand tambour d'alimentation à taquet est placé directement devant le broyeur; il coince les matières et les force contre le broyeur. La chambre de broyage elle-même est totalement enfermée dans la machine.

Record 4 1987-11-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Precision Grinding
CONT

The horizontal spindle grinder with a reciprocating table is probably the most common surface grinder for toolroom work. The work is reciprocated under the grinding wheel which is fed down to provide the desired depth of cut.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Rectification (Usinage)
OBS

Rectification par meule de profil. On utilise la partie cylindrique de la meule. Pendant la coupe, les génératrices de la meule sont à tour de rôle tangentes à la surface coupée.
