Product Summary

Glebar Advantage

Incorporating a new NEMA 4 rated touch screen control with built in networking capability and removable flash card memory for simple in the field software updates. Built in interface for diameter gauging equipment such as laser gage micrometers give this machine the capability of automatic size compensation on the fly.

A linear glass scale on the regulating wheel slide closes the control loop insuring positioning to 50 millionths. The improved super precision regulating wheel housing offers a superior spindle performance over the 8-1/4" work span.

Built in automatic cycling and infeeding.

Now available with automatic dressing and automatic insert sizing.

Built in software features to allow you to:

  • Take advantage of 1.5" up to 8" wide work wheel for single taper work. With the optimized feeding system, produce stylets at a rate of 5 sec piece to piece unattended.
  • Profile grind up to six tapers automatically or complex curves using built in 12 sensors detecting the wire proximal end or distal end.
  • Automatically compute the trajectory of the taper during the grind producing such shapes as concave or convex forms.
  • Built in paddle grinding; in some cases without the use of a paddle stop.
This compact machine is ideal for catheter and guidewire grinding as well as small metal components. Feeding systems available for this machine are displayed in the TF-9DHD Brochure (PDF)
