GPD-20-43

Advanced Double-Drive CNC Grinder for High-Precision Applications

The Shigiya GPD-20-43 is a state-of-the-art double-drive CNC cylindrical grinder designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern manufacturing. Its innovative double center drive system eliminates the need for a drive carrier or chuck, allowing for all-step grinding without setup changes. This design significantly reduces setup time and maintenance, enhancing overall productivity. Equipped with NC movable workheads on both the left and right sides, the GPD-20-43 offers adjustable distances between centers, accommodating workpiece lengths ranging from 30mm to 430mm. This flexibility makes it ideal for high-mix mass production lines, where quick adaptation to different workpiece sizes is essential. 

High-Precision Grinding with CBN Wheel and In-Process Gauge

The GPD-20-43 utilizes a CBN grinding wheel in conjunction with a multi-step sizing in-process gauge, ensuring consistent processing accuracy and high precision. This combination allows for real-time monitoring and adjustments during the grinding process, maintaining tight tolerances and superior surface finishes. The machine’s swing over table is 200mm, with a maximum grinding diameter of 80mm, and it supports a weight capacity of up to 20kg. These specifications make the GPD-20-43 suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive, aerospace, and precision engineering industries. 

Optimized Design for Enhanced Productivity

The GPD-20-43’s design focuses on improving processing accuracy and maintenance efficiency. Its double-drive system not only simplifies the setup process but also contributes to improved maintenance by reducing mechanical complexity. This results in increased machine uptime and reduced operational costs. Furthermore, the machine’s compact footprint and robust construction ensure stability during operation, minimizing vibrations and thermal deformation. This stability is crucial for maintaining high-precision grinding over extended periods.
