For fast & precise micro tool manufacturing The Helitronic Micro combines a radically new design with linear motors to create the optimum solution for grinding micro tools.
Benefits of the Walter Helitronic Micro:
30% faster than ball-screw machines
50% better surface finishes & best accuracy
Tools 0.02-0.50" (0.5-12.7 mm) in diameter (optimal range for high precision production; can handle smaller and larger tools)
Regrinds 0.1" and up (2 mm+)
Easy setup on the machine or an office PC so machine stays productive
Features:
Linear/Direct drives in all axis with incredible accuracy, acceleration & speed (up to 2,000 IPM)
Automatic shank steadyrest
X2 axis automatically moves tool to center during grind for better accuracy on corner radii and ballnose forms on the tiniest tools
Tilting B-axis automatically positions the wheel to swing radial clearances with the same point on the wheel during the grind
Helitronic Tool Studio software combines ease of use with infinite flexibility
Super-reliable Fanuc 310i control
Integrated Fanuc robot for fast changes of up to 1,500 tools
Vibration dampening, temperature stable, 13,500 lb mineral casting
