GT-610 CNC: Infeed/Thrufeed Precision CNC Centerless Grinder
The Glebar GT-610 CNC Infeed / Throughfeed Precision Centerless Grinder is the complete “lights-out” solution for applications where a high degree of automation, data gathering, and gauging feedback is required. The fully automated system is capable of grinding and gauging multiple components per cycle. The GT-610 CNC excels in high production or frequent changeover operations with the assurance of automatic size compensation and 100% inspection. Challenging components such as arthroscopic shavers, bone drill blanks, small powdered hard metal components, aerospace fasteners, transmission bushings, and more can be easily processed.
