Example of pinch/peel grinding of a long and thin
component on the Rollomatic ShapeSmart NP50
grinding machine.
As the original inventor of pinch/peel grinding, Rollomatic maintains its global leadership position by showing a new model within its line-up of grinding machines at EASTEC 2021. The ShapeSmart model NP50 is designed and dedicated for cylindrical grinding of carbide, HSS and stainless-steel blanks and components with emphasis on highest achievable surface finish and concentricity.
The patented process for grinding non-round parts includes full pinch/peel grinding which ensures extremely high tolerances, form accuracy and the lowest TIR achievable. This is particularly important for exceptionally thin and long parts. Oblong punches, form punches, squares out of center, corner radiuses and any other shape can be produced with this method.
This machine is also ideal for blank preparation of cutting tool blanks in the industrial, medical, and dental markets.
