FC-200D and FC-500D Polycrystalline Tool Grinders from Rush Machinery, Inc. (Rushville, NY) allow the economical manufacturing and regrinding of PCD, CVD, PCBN, carbide and HSS tools. These machines grind angles and radii on standard and special turning and milling inserts, boring tools, milling cutters, grooving tools, reamers, and other special tools. Their rigid construction and use of a 3 hp variable speed grinding spindle provides vibration-free grinding and fast stock removal.
Both the FC-200D and the FC-500D use a unique video optical system with 15X to 120X (zoom) magnification and a black-and-white video monitor that provides higher magnification and/or a larger field of view than most machine-mounted optical comparator systems. The video camera also moves with the worktable for easy set-up and inspection during and after grinding.
The FC-500D is the larger, more versatile machine of the two tool grinders, with all of the capabilities of the FC-200D but also featuring vertical grinding spindle travel, a wheel travel range of 500 mm and an oscillation stroke of 70 mm. The FC-500D is also designed for grinding reamers, drills, end mills, and multi-step form tools.
