DM-9CNC: Standalone CNC Grinding Wheel Dresser

The Glebar DM-9CNC is a standalone dressing machine designed to dress 9″ (229mm) diameter by up to 10-1/8″ (257mm) wide wheels used on the PG-9BHD and PG-9DHD Plunge Grinders. It allows a wheel to be contour dressed in the same method employed on the grinder. Using linear encoders attached directly to the slide, the DM-9CNC ensures accurate positioning under all conditions so the resulting contour is always true to form.

Key Features

  • Standalone machine, available for both 9″ and 10″ work wheels, that CNC dresses precision contours in vitrified grinding wheels.
  • Powered by a brushless servo motor, it offers high torque and closed-loop velocity control at up to 10,000 RPM.
  • Built on a granite bed for optimal thermal stability and vibration control.
  • Wheel contour can be generated in CAD or entered directly as linear and circular positions on the large 15″ touchscreen interface.
  • The roll dress spindle on the DM-9CNC is extremely rigid and precise, with runout less than 0.00005″ (1.3 µm).
  • The two servo-driven slides feature 0.1µm glass scale feedback for accurate formatting.
  • The DM-9CNC uses linear encoders attached directly to the slide, ensuring accurate positioning under all conditions so the resulting contour is always true to form.
  • Linear roller ways deliver ultra smooth motion and long life.
  • Dresser path, wheel shape, and dresser position are all rendered in real time on the screen.
