Offering high productivity, flexibility and precision, but with a carbon footprint smaller than similar machines on the market. The LandisFLEX provides a sustainable cylindrical grinding solution attuned to the demands of today’s climate-conscious society.
The benchmark for sustainable productivity, precision and flexibility
The energy efficient LandisFLEX is designed for traverse, plunge or contour grinding of cylindrical components. Like all our machines, it boasts exceptional flexibility, productivity and accuracy.
However, it has the added advantage of low-energy hydrostatics, instead of hydraulic units. This results in a 25% lower energy consumption than comparable machines. The machine design also eliminates ball screws and minimizes lube oil consumption. It all adds up to lower total cost of ownership.

supporting multiple axis configurations
The Landis 6400 open architecture control software supports multiple axis interpolation, including a B-axis, for flexible processing of eccentric, concentric and traverse configurations. This includes straight, angle plunge and single- and dual-spindle configurations in addition to left or right headstocks.
The LandisFLEX has the flexibility to use conventional or CBN grinding wheels with a polishing capability as an additional option.
machine highlights
Linear motors on all feed and traverse mechanisms, hydrostatic wheel spindles and anti-friction linear guideways ensure exact positioning for high-accuracy dimensional and geometric part tolerances.
A range of additional features further enhance product quality, including:
- Polishing head
- Protomar in-process gauge
- Gauging and probing
- Hydrostatic workheads
