Cinetic Landis Grinding Corp. is introducing its new LT1-1200 flexible CNC cylindrical grinder with infinitely variable swiveling wheelhead. The new Landis LT1-1200 grinder is suitable for single machine/single setup grinding of complete camshafts and small crankshafts, as well as general grinding of concentric diameters, eccentrics, profiles, tapers and chamfers. The LT1-1200 grinder overcomes the tooling limitations encountered in hard-turning. This grinder also features a turret with two-spindle pod mounting positions. The pods, which can be fitted for the use of different size grinding wheels, may be optionally equipped with left or righthand wheels adapted to specific applications. The grinder's turret has infinitely variable positioning with a 230º working range. The incorporation of fully hydrostatic bearings in the turret enables a low profile, rigid swiveling wheelhead design that is stiff, accurate, and reliable due to the elimination of mechanical couplings.

Other features of the new Landis LT1-1200 grinder include hydrostatic wheelhead bearings and linear motor positioning of both the X- and Z-axes. A swing-down rotary dresser is provided for increased machine capacity. The LT1-1200 can accommodate a 1200 mm maximum work part length with a 150 mm maximum swing.
