Composite Strips | DD-7
Challenge: To grind both sides of composite strips (fiberglass), fully automated at high speed with tight tolerances. Solution Using Glebar’s DD-7 Double Disc Grinder (one of the smallest on the market), the composite strip material was successfully ground from spool to spool. The machine’s tractor feed extractor and 10” grinding wheels were instrumental in making this […]

Thrufeed Grinding Steel Tubes | TF-9DHD
Manufacturers use grinding machines with a narrow work wheel requiring several passes to reduce the diameter and achieve acceptable surface finish. Thus creating longer cycle times. Machines are difficult to adjust for setup and changeovers requiring highly skilled technicians. Heavy material removal in a short distance deforms thin walled tubing and causes burns. Deliver a […]
Steel Taps | GT-610 CNC
Challenge: Customer wants to increase output for steel taps used to drill threaded holes as used in the machining and tooling industry. In addition to speeding up the throughput time, achieving the exact tolerances is critical for the component to create the proper threads. Solution Solution: Glebar’s automated GT-610 CNC Infeed Centerless Grinder configured with integrated […]
Carbide Rods (Tungsten) | PG-9X20DHD
To establish a process whereby pre-sintered carbide drill blanks processed in a hot isostatic press (HIP) can be pre-sized to produce straight rod stock for long blanks. The existing method of manufacture involves sintering the carbide rods in a hot isostatic press then grinding them to size in a hard state before the fluting operation […]
Tungsten Carbide Pin (Roughing) | PG-9DOD
Challenge: The customer wants to decrease cycle time while maintaining tight concentricity specifications for roughing a tungsten carbide pin. Solution The Glebar PG-9DOD addressed the challenge. The system was configured with dual fixtures, a six-axis robot and bowl feeder – decreasing cycle time by 50% by grinding two parts at a time with dual fixtures. This machine excels […]
Tungsten Carbide Pin (Finishing) | GT-610
Challenge: Satisfying the high volume finishing requirements for the complex form geometry on a hard carbide pin application. This compliments the PG-9DOD Carbide Pin Roughing Operation. Solution Solution: The Glebar GT-610 Infeed Centerless Grinding System addressed the challenge. As the second process to thePG-9DOD grinding operation (see case study), this machine excels at precision finishing small carbide pins at […]
Precision Punches | GT-610 CNC
Challenge: To grind a variety of tooling punches to extreme precision, while accommodating small lot sizes with short changeover times. Solution Hydraulic punch machine tooling goes through punishment when forming and stamping materials of variable thickness and hardness. The punch design is more about stringent material hardness properties, although geometric tolerances are just as important since […]
