Interform grinding machine

摘要

A grinding machine having a fixed wheelhead and a biaxially movable workslide. The workslide is mounted on a cylindrical slidebar for axial sliding motion as well as pivotal motion around the bar. A dresser assembly is also mounted pivotally on the slidebar for selective dressing operations. The workslide may be moved axially into an overlapping relationship with the dresser such that the workslide is carried with the dresser over a range of pivotal displacement thereof. An hydraulic cylinder is used to pivot the dresser and a precisely positionable stop is used to control all lateral feed motions. Axial speed is programmed by a control valve. The dresser is pivotal on its base to produce a true circle wheel profile.
