Precision Rebuilding. Restore Performance.
Based on the conventional “U” series, AMC-SCHOU introduced PLC control systems to its crankshaft grinders, including the K 1200-P, K 1500-P, K 2000-P, K 2700-P/PF, and K 3700-P models. In response to market requirements, the 900 mm swing-diameter PMR machine line and the 1,200 mm swing-diameter PMD machine line were also launched.
PLC-controlled crankshaft grinders make the grinding process manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic with simple operations such as pressing buttons, selecting switches, entering parameters on the touchscreen, and turning the handwheels. Less experience in manual handwheel operation is required.
With the additional AMC Electrical In-Process Measurement (AEM) system, the machine can automatically achieve the required size and roundness.
PLC-controlled crankshaft grinders are recommended for medium-volume production, performance vehicle applications, high-horsepower diesel crankshaft regrinding, and similar applications.
