Optical profile grinding technologies by AMADA GLS-5T The top-selling optical profile grinding machine in the world with high-precision projector. Fast implementation of the required tasks through teach-in playback technology. Optimum suitability for small batches, single item production and repairs. DV-1 The fully automated profile grinding centre with CCD camera technology. With a CCD camera, CAD-based digital data can be memorized and automatically processed. A built-in robot enables fully automated production, i.e. high-precision profiles can be manufactured in small and large batches....

OPTICAL PROFILE GRINDING GLS-5T The GLS-5T is the world‘s leading optical profile grinding machine: Using a projector and a magnifying glass, the grinding area is enlarged by factors up to 100, i.e. 1µm is visible to the naked eye. Minute details on the workpiece can be recognized at a glance. Once again, the most recent generation of the GLS series excels with maximum quality, high stability, ease of operation of the AMADA Fanuc CNC unit and the versatile capabilities to machine even the most complex shapes are all outstanding features.

Speed-stroke grinding head ensures mirror finish Dressing operation Ultraprecision parts The optical profile grinding machines meet the highest quality and operation demands Ultra-precision machining with in-process optical inspection via the projector. This unique technology is the basis for the success of the GLS-5T. Contour accuracies of down to 1µm are achieved and the operator may choose the most suitable method of operation – manual, NC assisted, CNC controlled and with up to 5-axis interpolation. Using the teach-in playback function, even grinding wheel wear can be easily...

OPTICAL PROFILE GRINDING DV-1 The AMADA DV-1, which has been awarded with various innovation prizes, opens up groundbreaking possibilities for automated profile grinding. Based on the principle of optical profile grinding, the machine can measure both the workpiece and the grinding wheel using a built-in CCD camera. The results are then compared with the required dimension. Differences are immediately calculated and the machine regrinds the workpiece to the finish dimension with µ accuracy and with the highest surface finish.
