MRSE (Massachusetts Rebuild Service & Export) has launched a new grinder control system, specifically for Cincinnati Milacron-Heald grinders.
Heald grinders have long been a mainstay of the bearing manufacturing industry worldwide; endless thousands are in service as both ID and OD bearing race grinders.
The company says its retrofit platform, employing an integrated digital servo system with a custom-programmable automation controller, will breathe new life into the legions of older Heald grinders still in service.
MRSE's system is patterned after Milacron's 700/750 Series operating systems, but adds an array of new capabilities -- a high-speed, multitasking controller, integrated motion control, a color touch screen interface, and intelligent motor control.
Grinder cycle time can also be minimized using the software's cycle optimization tools.
The company said its Heald retrofit can be done in the field, or as part of a more complete grinder rebuild / reconditioning program.
