New to the Wadkin grinder family is the VISION bench mounted
profile grinding and sharpening machine. Ideally suited to all those using
spindle moulders and smaller four side planer moulders, the design of the
VISION, particularly when used in conjunction with the Wadkin LCP Grinding
Fixture, meets the requirement for production and re-sharpening of limited
cutter projection tooling used on both spindle moulders and single end tenoners.
The VISION has a unique arbor assembly utilising a simple sleeve arrangement
to accommodate different bore sizes which offers minimal downtime when mounting
or dismounting tools. As with all Wadkin profile grinders, the arbor assembly
is mounted on quality engineered linear bearings ensuring an accurate blend
of position and "feel". The tilting head mechanism allows the
operator to add side relief without affecting the cutter profile.
With linear table movement and a 150 x 200mm grinding capacity, the VISION is dimensioned to fit easily into the workshop environment and is a logical step towards a totally independent machining operation.
