Grono 250: The evolution of gear Finishing
With Grono 250, Sicmat enters the field of honing technology.
Born from G.R.E.T.H.A. (Gear Related External Teeth Tool Honing Application) project in cooperation with the Faculty of Engineering at Turin Polytechnic University, this machine represents the latest frontier of post-hardening fine finishing.
The “mission” of Grono 250 is to keep the advantages of Raso range in honing: constructive simplicity and use practicalness, which mean a lower initial investment together with lower exercise costs in the production process for the Final User.
The main characteristics of Grono 250 are the following:
- External toothing honing wheel design;
- Easy accessibility for maintenance and operations;
- Vertical workpiece axis for an easier link to automation;
- Main machining axes operated by direct-drive motors;
- Workpiece/tool synchronization;
- Honing wheel axis and workpiece axis operated by electrospindles;
- Integrated pre-process measuring station.
