Product catalog summary
Overview: The ORBIT Series offers flexible and economical solutions for high-accuracy surface and profile grinding. It is designed to cater to both single part and small batch production, as well as cost-effective mass production.
Specifications: The ORBIT Series includes three machine sizes with grinding ranges of 200 x 500 mm, 300 x 600 mm, and 400 x 800 mm. The machines feature a modular saddle type design, high-precision ball screw drives, and a newly developed hydrodynamic sliding guideway system called EasySlide.
Design and Construction: The machine components such as the bed, column, saddle, table, and wheel head are made of cast iron, optimized for rigidity and weight. The EasySlide guideways provide high wear resistance and increased precision.
Control Systems: The ORBIT Series is equipped with the BLOHM EasyProfile control, which combines Siemens 840D hardware with an intuitive user interface. It includes features like a portable control unit, canned cycles for various grinding operations, and an optional Adaptive Dressing Control (ADC) system.
Software and Upgrades: The EasyProfile control can be expanded with software packages for additional grinding cycles, profile dressing, and grinding wheel management. These upgrades enhance productivity and flexibility.
Technical Data: The machines offer variable speed grinding spindle drives, with maximum speeds ranging from 5,000 to 6,500 rpm. They support a range of grinding wheel sizes and have specific dimensions and weights for each model.
Applications: The ORBIT Series is suitable for the die and mold industry, tool manufacturing, mechanical engineering, and precision parts production.
Contact Information: Blohm Jung GmbH, with locations in Hamburg and Göppingen, Germany, provides sales and support for the ORBIT Series.
