Hagerstown, Maryland – The Landis-Bryant UL2, designed for high-speed, high-precision grinding of internal diameters, features a torque tube bed design combined with a flow-thru system that circulates oil and coolant through the base. The combination provides rigidity and thermal.
Independent slides in X-axis and Z-axis, each mounted directly to the machine bed, make for a low center of gravity. The machine’s round-bar hydrostatic slide ways in each axis provide stiffness with minimum friction. High-resolution servo motors directly coupled to super-precision ball screws provide precise positioning.
The Landis-Bryant UL2 allows for various machine configurations. Options include automatic workpiece loading solutions, in- and post-process gauging in a very compact setup, acoustic emission monitoring system (AEMS), automatic taper adjustment, Fanuc i Series controls, and various dressing options. Infinitely variable speeds go up to 120,000rpm.
“We were able to secure a multi-machine order from a leading manufacturer of high precision engine components following the acquisition in 2015,” says Ron Wood, Executive Director Business Development at Fives Landis Corp. “All machines have successfully completed the run-off at our Hagerstown facility and being currently commissioned at the customer’s production plant."
