Abstract

LeBlond Makino Machine Tool Co has developed the technology for carrying out finish grinding and machining operations on a single computer-numerical-controlled machining center. This has led the machine tool maker to enhance grinding capabilities and consistency, improve efficiency and lower leadtimes during the manufacture of metal parts. However, precise process engineering is required for both operations to be integrated.<br />One machine tool builder is using grinding tools on a machining center to finish-grind workpieces. This concept has many attractive benefits, but it calls for the kind of careful engineering [...]
