OCTOPUS 100 CNC tool grinding machine

Product catalog summary
Overview
The Octopus 100 is a versatile and ergonomic CNC tool and cutter grinder designed for the grinding process of small to medium-sized cutting tools, such as end mills, drills, and single-point cutting tools. It is compact, easy to use, and requires minimal maintenance.

Design and Kinematics
The machine features a 7-axis configuration with 4 linear and 3 rotary axes. The linear axes (X, Y, Z) and rotary axis (B) are mounted on a solid cast iron tower, while the workhead unit (A) is on rotary axis (W) with a linear positioning axis (U). This setup allows for efficient grinding of ball nose or corner radius tools.

Spindle and Tool Compatibility
The double end spindle on the Z axis can swing 255°, accommodating both right-hand and left-hand tools. The workhead is equipped with an ISO 40 taper and clamping collar, supporting various toolholders, including manual or automatic hydraulic spindles and chucks.

Software and Control
The Octopus 100 is equipped with a SIEMENS SINUMERIK 840Di control unit and OCTOSOFT programming software, which simplifies the process of tool sharpening and construction. It includes two software packages: OCTOSOFT MILLS for end mills and OCTOSOFT DRILLS for twist drills. Customized software is available upon request.

Coolant and Filtration System
The machine can connect to a central coolant system or a dedicated filtration system, featuring a 300-liter tank and high-pressure pump. The system ensures a 100 l/min filtering capacity at 5 microns using pure coolant oil.

Efficiency, dynamism, technique, high-tech Efficiency, dynamism, technique, high-tech The kinematics of Octopus 100 is composed of 4 linear and 3 rotary axes assembled in two clearly defined areas of the machine base. Linear axes X, Y, Z and rotary axis B are assembled on a solid cast iron tower on the back of the machine base, while workhead unit A is assembled on rotary axis W, which contains linear positioning axis U. Linear axis U has been designed to make ball nose or corner radius grinding: U axis positions the center of the tool radius in the center of rotation of W axis.

coolant oil filtration system OCTOPUS 100 is ready to be connected to a central coolant system or to a dedicated filtration system for the machine. The cartridge filtering system includes a 300 liter tank, pump to re-circulate the oil and the high pressure delivery pump. The high pressure pump provides a 60 l/min flow rate at a pressure of 6/8 bar. The filtering system only functions with pure coolant oil and guarantees a 100 l/min filtering capacity at 5 microns.
