SOE
More Convenient, More Accurate, More Versatile: The SOE Single-Lip Cutter Grinder.

View the brochure in PDF format

The SOE performs faster and more accurately than the SO. It features a time saving axially adjusted grinding spindle, a fly-mounted tool carrier and an advanced dressing attachment. With its unique measuring projector, the SOE allows you to drastically reduce setup time while accurately measuring clamped tool.

The SOE, a further development of the standard SO version, features a totally enclosed housing with built-in drive system, a dust exhaust, an axially adjustable grinding spindle, a special wheel dresser and a fly-mounted tool carrier. The SOE can also be supplied as a bench model or on a pedestal.

Ingenious Wheel Dresser:
The built-in wheel dresser for reconditioning the face of the grinding wheel, ensures optimum results in all grinding operations. An eccentric disc limits the swivel motion of the dressing diamond, in such a way, that thesmall projecting rim remains on the wheel face, thus avoiding overheating of the cutting tool, on particular grinding operations.

Axially Adjustable Grinding Spindle:
The grinding spindle, which is held in sturdy, high-accuracy bearings (as on the SO), is additionally arranged for play-free axial adjustment by means of a knurled knob. Dressing is performed by moving the grinding wheel towards the diamond. This affords the advantage that the position of the wheel, relative to the tool to be ground, always remains the same, thus saving the time and trouble of tedious readjustments thereby helping to avoid grinding errors.

Powerful Dust Exhaust:
The exemplary dust exhaust unit is accommodated in the housing and switched on together with the machine. The wheel is virtually enclosed by a rotatable guard in both grinding and dressing operations thereby ensuring efficient removal of all dust particles. The dust is retained by a filter, arranged for easy replacement with the aid of a quick-clamping lever.

Higher Precision and Greater Convenience:
Apart from the additional axial spindle adjustment, the SOE has the same setup and adjustment features as the SO, but the tool carrier is fly-mounted on the sturdy locating tube and thus provides greater handling ease and faster setting-up.

For moving the tool in contact with the wheel, and for feed motions, the locating pin with the tool carrier is coarsely adjusted axially. Fine adjustment is by means of a guide sleeve preloaded by cup springs for play-free, high-accuracy positioning in steps of 0.01mm (0.0004"). As on the SO, two swivel bearings permit rotary adjustments of the tool in two mutually perpendicular planes. The vertical swivel bearing is held in needle bearings for obtaining a higher degree of accuracy.

Greater Versatility:
In contrast to the SO, the index head slide can be vernier-adjusted within a range of 10mm (0.4") to both sides on a transverse guide member. This permits the grinding of off-center radii greater than half the tool diameter.

Greater handling ease, higher precision and a wider range of adjustments - the SOE is the ideal machine for high-accuracy grinding of large numbers of single-lip cutters.

Accessories:
The comprehensive range of accessories shown on this page extend the scope of usefulness of your machine.
  • Twist Drill Grinding Attachment: For reconditioning twist drills from 3 to 18mm (0.12 to 0.7") diameter.
  • Pedestal: For the convenient storage of collets and accessories.
  • Collets: Shank diameter 20 mm (0.8"), ID from 0.5 to 17.5 mm (0.02" to 0.7") in steps of 0.5 mm (0.02") and square-shank tools of 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm (0.16", 0.24", 0.32", 0.40" and 0.48:).
  • Special Cutter Locating Fixture: For cutters of 16, 18, 20 and 25 mm (0.6", 0.7", 0.8" and 1") diameter and Morse 1, 2, and 3 taper shanks.
  • Toolholder: For economical reconditioning and manufacturing of turining and forming tools with any desired profile on the SO and SOE. For rectangular and square tool cross sections up to 20 mm in height. Also allows trouble-free clamping of reversible carbide tips. In conjunction with the SOE's measuring projecors, you can gauge radii and profiles (up to 8 mm cutting edge height) in mere seconds, drastically reducing set-up times.
  • Dust Exhaust for the SO: To adapt your SO to today's environmental requirements. Available either as a complete exhaust system with dust-exhaust, or only with exhaust funnel for connection to your central exhaust system.
