CAM.2: Micro Grinder
The Glebar CAM.2 Micro Grinder is the perfect machine for grinding small, complex, precision medical applications such as complex medical guidewires, radiuses, needle points, and non-linear shapes. Previously unproduceable parts can be made easily, with minimal setup time, and with limited operator training. Glebar’s patented dual-carriage linear motor part feed system ensures that the position, speed, and rotation are under absolute control at all times controlling the grind with a high degree of diameter and length accuracy.
Key Features
- Absolute control over the lengths and diameters.
- 3D visualization of part and wheel shape.
- Glebar P4K Gauging System available to feed diameter measurements to the control system for automatic size compensation.
- Secondary Spindle Assembly can be used as a cutoff wheel to grind slots, angular slots, or generate sharp internal corners.
- In-line grit blasting for marker bands or general abrasion.
- OPC or OLE server connection to SCADA or other ERP and data management systems.
- Collects production data and machine status in real-time.
- Available Spool Feeder System feeds Nitinol and SLT wire from a spool and cuts the wire to length.
- CNC work wheel dressing.
- Variable part rotation speed.
- 15” touchscreen HMI with underlying G-code control.
- Fully customizable software.
- Unlimited part/recipe library.
- Available with CE Certification.
- Remote connectivity simplifies troubleshooting and maintenance.
- Patented Multi-Axis Positioning System.
- Continuous feed system.
- Laser interferometer ensures sub-micron accuracy.
- Software interface allows an unskilled operator to run multiple high precision machines simultaneously.
- Available wheel balancing system.
