Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document introduces the UW I D, a versatile tool grinding machine by SAACKE, highlighting its compact design and integrated chain loader for enhanced efficiency and flexibility. The machine is designed to accommodate up to 320 workpieces and features a rapid grinding wheel change mechanism that reduces change time to just 12 seconds.

Key Features
  • Grinding Wheel Changer: Fully automatic with 6 magazine positions, optionally 12, allowing simultaneous changes of cooling nozzles.
  • Automation: Integrated tool changing system for high automation and accuracy, positioning the grinding wheel at the center of the grinding head's rotational axis.
  • Software: NUMROTOplus® software for programming special tools, featuring a built-in database, 3D collision monitoring, and machine simulation.
  • Drive and Control: Digital control and axis drives provide high dynamics across all axes, with a work head suitable for cylindrical grinding up to 600 rpm, optionally 1,000 rpm.

Technical Specifications
  • Tool Capacity: Varies by shank diameter, with a maximum of 320 tools for the chain-driven loader.
  • Grinding Capabilities: Suitable for straight and spiral fluted hobs, with integrated dressing and a nominal drive motor rating up to 36 kW.
  • Dimensions and Travel: Grinding table X-axis with a longitudinal traverse of 625 mm, cross slide Z-axis with 305 mm, and vertical travel Y-axis with 305 mm.
  • Spindle and Motor: Grinding spindle speed is infinitely variable from 2,000 to 12,000 rpm, optionally up to 20,000 rpm, with a peak grinding motor capacity of 16 kW, optionally 26 or 36 kW.

Applications
The UW I D is suitable for a variety of tools including cylindrical and tapered cutters, drills, step drills, and woodworking industry tools such as disc type milling cutters and shaper cutters.

Conclusion
The UW I D by SAACKE is a highly flexible and efficient tool grinding machine, ideal for industries requiring rapid tool changes and high precision. Its compact design and advanced software make it a valuable asset for modern manufacturing processes.

UW I D-2

Several sophisticated developments make the latest generation of the UWI D a true master of flexibility and a space wonder. Instead of optionally docking the chain loader to the machine in a separate unit, the UW I D skilfully integrates the complete chain loader with up to 320 workpieces volume right inside the machine. This not only makes the outer dimensions of the machine much more compact, but also reduces the tool change time. The greatest time savings are, however, achieved by the UW ID during the grinding wheel change. The completely newly designed mechanism causes the machine to quickly...
