 LT2 Twin Wheelhead - Crankshaft Pin Grinders 

LT2 

 

The highly productive Landis LT2 Twin Wheelhead crankshaft grinder provides the flexibility needed in today’s global automotive manufacturing industry by allowing multiple operations to be combined in a single grinder, thereby minimizing the number of machines and reducing capital expenditure.

The LT2 grinder’s two independently programmable wheelheads can be tooled with cBN grinding wheels to perform several different processing methods:

 

  • Finish grind two main journal diameters simultaneously
  • Finish grind two crankpin journal diameters simultaneously
  • Finish grind main and crankpin journal diameters in a combined operation
      • Finish grind other concentric diameters and thrustwalls by various sequencing of twin wheelheads

 

This capability allows tremendous flexibility in developing highly productive processes. In certain applications, it is possible to grind all of the concentric and non-concentric diameters on a crankshaft with only one fixturing using different width wheels on the separate wheelheads as necessary.

 

 LT2     

    Key Features Include:

     

    • Hydrostatic ways on the X-axes for high stiffness and improved contour accuracy
    • Wear-free permanent magnet linear motor wheelfeed drive system for faster workspeeds and improved part quality
    • Hydrostatic wheel spindle that improves finishes and provides consistent maintenance-free accuracy
    • Motorized headstock drive Motorized spindle dresser for precision wheel truing and wheel profiling capability
    • Available in 680 and 1400mm grindable lengths
    • Available in 2500 mm single wheelhead option
    • Brushless servos on all axes
