INCREASE PRODUCTION
Spring Makers Report up to 40% Increased Production with Moyer Grinder
- Reduces Dressing Frequency as High Cutting Speed Generates Less Heat
- Improves Squareness Results from Less Compression of Spring During Grinding
- Increases Production as Stock is Removed Faster When Springs Can be Ground at Higher Surface Feet Per Minute.
STABILITY = CONTROL
Elimination of overhung grinding head spindles
- Two direct drive vertically opposed spindles are mounted on precision machined plates which are aligned by linear ball bushings sliding on three hardened columns 120 degrees apart.
- Both top and bottom wheel heads are raised and lowered by three lead screws next to each of the three columns. This triangular mounting arrangement provides the necessary rigidity to set the two heads parallel within .002" and to hold this setting for the life of the machine.
PRECISION SPRING CARRIER PLATE DRIVE SYSTEM
The spring carrier plate is comprised of a ground 2.750" drive shaft located in a 1800:1 reduction anti-backlash cone drive. The cone drive is driven by a .5 HP adjustable speed motor. This precision drive keeps the runout of the carrier drive to a minimum so that the ends of the springs are held perpendicular to the grinding rings to ensure squareness.
The dresser arm is a permanent fixed height swing dresser mounted to one of the main columns. This design keeps moving parts and deflection to a minimum.
