The SBS Internal, 'In-Spindle' or 'Spindle Type' automatic balancer is designed to be mounted into a bore within the grinding machine spindle. Integrating into the spindle provides mechanical optimisation and space saving.
The Balance Head contains two electric motors, gearboxes & correction weights. Spindle bores ranging from 28mm - 175mm can be utilised. Contact & non-contact transmission in front & rear side configurations are options, providing operating speeds from 300 - 30,000rpm.
The system is controller using the SBS SB-5500 modular controller, and acoustic emission monitoring for grinding gap touch detection and crash prevention can be integrated into the balance head for optimum grinding process control.
Installing an SBS Internal automatic balancer removes variation in the process caused by the grinding wheel, and can provide:
*Reduction in chatter & grinding burn *Improved part geometry; roundness, run-out & lobing *Improved surface finish *Increase in wheel & dresser life *Extended spindle life *Higher cutting speeds & productivity *Time saving
