We have sold more than 70 onsite crankshaft grinding machines all over the world, we understand the importance of training and the essential skills involved in operation and maintenance of the machine. We ensure that the client technicians are thoroughly briefed about the operation and maintenance of the equipment.
The onsite crankshaft grinding machine manufactured by RA Power Solutions is designed to have minimum vibration resulting to maintenance of close tolerance in terms of taper and ovality within 0.02 mm or depending on the diameter of crank pin and main journals.
Heavy-Duty Precision GrindingThe CGM-1500 excels in high-precision crankshaft grinding for demanding applications across automotive, marine, generator, and industrial sectors. Its durable construction and advanced features ensure stable performance even with continuous heavy workloads.
Versatile Operation and AdjustabilityWith adjustable working and spindle speeds, operators can fine-tune the grinding process for different crankshaft sizes. The semi-automatic control and manual operation offer flexibility and straightforward handling, while the recirculating coolant and automatic lubrication systems maintain optimal grinding conditions.
Robust Construction and SafetyCrafted from cast iron and weighing 3500 kg, the CGM-1500's box-type slide way and magnetic chuck provide reliable stability. The hydraulic tailstock and three-jaw chuck guarantee secure workpiece holding, minimizing operation risk and supporting precise machining even for large crankshafts.
FAQ's of Crankshaft Grinding:
Q: How does the automatic lubrication system in the CGM-1500 enhance its grinding performance?
A: The automatic lubrication system ensures consistent delivery of lubricant to critical components, reducing wear and maintaining precise movements throughout the grinding process. This leads to smoother operation and prolongs the machine's lifespan.
Q: What types of crankshafts can be ground using this machine?
A: The CGM-1500 is suitable for grinding crankshafts ranging from 50 mm to 600 mm in diameter and up to 2500 mm in length. It is designed for applications in automobiles, generators, marine engines, and industrial machinery.
Q: When is it appropriate to use the hydraulic tailstock feature?
A: The hydraulic tailstock should be used when securing long or heavy crankshafts to ensure stable support during grinding. It helps maintain alignment and prevents vibration, especially for large or high-precision jobs.
Q: Where is the CGM-1500 typically installed for optimal use?
A: This machine is best installed in industrial workshops or manufacturing facilities with sufficient floor space (minimum 3500 mm x 1700 mm x 1600 mm) and access to a 415 V power supply. Its robust construction makes it ideal for heavy-duty production environments.
Q: What is the process for adjusting grinding speed and spindle speed on CGM-1500?
A: Grinding and spindle speeds are manually adjustable according to workpiece requirements. Operators can set spindle speed from 100 to 600 rpm to match the size and material of the crankshaft, ensuring efficient and precise grinding outcomes.
Q: How is the recirculating coolant system beneficial during crankshaft grinding?
A: The recirculating coolant system keeps the grinding area cool and prevents overheating, which helps maintain surface integrity, reduces thermal distortion, and extends the life of both the crankshaft and grinding wheel.
Q: What benefits does the box-type slide way design offer for this grinder?
A: A box-type slide way ensures superior rigidity and stability during operation, minimizing deflection and vibration. This promotes accurate grinding and enables the machine to handle heavy-duty tasks with reliability.
