Description

Large-scale forgings and special alloy products need to be conditioned at various stages of their manufacturing processes, e.g. by cutting the cast or forged material to intermediate or final lengths as required free from heavy burr and surface hardening.

For cutting-off the deformed end pieces, for taking samples to check the material quality but also by removing scale, cracks, or other defects from the product surface the temperature of the workpiece could be in a range from ambient to forging temperature.

In additon, prior to further processing of semi-finished steel and special alloy products, it must be also ensured that the surface of the work pieces is free from scale and flaws.

For both applications, even for increasingly large product dimensions and regardless of if the product to be ground or cut is cold or hot, a state-of-the-art solution, either with the multi-functional HP (high-pressure/high-performance) grinding machine or with the dry abrasive cut-off machine is required.
