CSM-10

Chamfer grinding machine

Quick overview

• Chamfer grinding
• Face grinding
• Tip grinding
• Diameter: Ø 6–25.4 mm
• Automated

The CSM-10 is a fully automated production system for grinding chamfers, machining workpieces to length, correcting axial runout and grinding tips. Linear motors move the grinding axes, allowing rods to be processed at any angle. An optional chamfer measuring station checks the chamfer angle and length in-line and automatically corrects deviations.

The production range is Ø 6–25.4 mm, with blank lengths of 50–200 mm. The system’s dynamic performance and stable construction enable short cycle times. The integrated P&S SL-25 step loader automatically loads and unloads large quantities. An optional turning station enables machining of both ends of the workpieces.

Technical specifications

Loading

• Load rods into the step loader manually or automatically.
• Capacity at Ø 6 mm: approx. 2,000 pieces
• Capacity at Ø 10 mm: approx. 650 pieces
• Capacity at Ø 20 mm: approx. 250 pieces
• Rods are separated and lifted into the internal magazine.

Input check and sorter

• A single rod is loaded into the prism.
• The rod’s length and diameter are checked.
• If the length or diameter is outside the required range, the optional input sorter removes the rod and loads the next one into the prism. This keeps production running if a rod with incorrect dimensions is loaded by mistake.

Grinding

• A servo axis positions the rod automatically and a collet clamps it.
• Two fixed stops are used for chamfer and length grinding.
• The next rod is positioned in the prism while grinding is in progress.
• After grinding, the rod is collected and transported to the removal station.

Unloading and quality control

• Ground chamfers are measured and the grinding axes are corrected if necessary.
• This provides high repeat accuracy.
• Parts are transferred from the unloading magazine to the P&S SL-25 step loader.

Options

• Input sorter
• Chamfer measurement
• Turning station for machining both ends of the rods
• Machine data acquisition (MDA)
• Oil mist extraction
• Compact fire protection system
• Coolant filtering system
• Coolant return pump tank
• Further options available
