GrindingHub NEWS 4/5: Quinto Qg1 Form Reamers on a new Level
A new way to program Form-Reamers with the CAD/CAM software Qg1: Fewer parameters, greater efficiency. Read the insights given by SCHNEEBERGER engineers, directly from GrindingHub
How has the software changed?
“Programming of Form Reamers has been completely redesigned. It is streamlined, simplified and enhanced.”
What are the main advantages over the previous version?
“The new form reamer design software allows for simplified management of different profiles within the same tool. The definition is done via DXF, which can be easily viewed and modified using SCHNEEBERGER’s EasyProfile. Indicating the nominal dimensions is enough, undercut definition and grinding diameters are automatically taken care of by Qg1.
The initial overmeasure value is to be defined, roughing and finishing processes are handled by Quinto. Several roughing processes have been added, such as plunge OD grinding with a 1A1 wheel or profile grinding with an 11V9 wheel. Last but not least a new in-process measurement with custom-defined probing points was implemented. The operator can rely on a controlled sequence in achieving the desired tolerance.”
The detailed and precise 3D simulation of the machine and grinding processes, calculation of grinding times and an instructive simulation make this package ideal for your needs! See yourself and book an online software demo with your favorite SCHNEEBERGER application engineers.
