ADVANCED GRINDING SOLUTIONS MACH 2020
Stand No: 17-320
Advanced Grinding Solutions (AGS) has booked one of its largest ever stands, stand 17-320, at the
forthcoming Mach show where it will be exhibiting no less than 6 machines and additional associated
products. Most of these machines have never been exhibited here before and therefore many UK
engineers will be getting their first opportunity to see this range of advanced grinding and finishing
machines.
After its great success at the last Mach show, that
resulted in several sales, Rollomatic has again decided to
also exhibit its NP pinch-peel cylindrical grinding machine
as used by many UK cutting tool manufacturers to quickly
and easily cylindrically grind carbide and HSS tool blanks
to diameter and form shape rather than to do so on multiaxis
tool grinders whereby the blank preparation process
on those machines takes considerably longer, is more
expensive and is generally not as accurate. Cutting tool
manufacturers are invited to receive a demonstration on
the many advantages of the Rollomatic NP machine for
blank preparation and to understand more about
Rollomatic’s wide range of multi axis CNC tool grinding
machines.
Rollomatic Tool Grinding
Rollomatic, a leading manufacturer of Tool Grinding machines, is
demonstrating its intention to increase its UK market presence by
exhibiting two grinding machines including one of its multi-axis
cutter grinding machines that’s being shown in the UK for the
very first time. These machines are used by many of the leading
cutting tool manufacturers to manufacture rotary tools such as
end mills and drills to the tightest possible tolerances band one
has never been shown at a UK exhibition before.
New to the AGS range, and also receiving its UK debut,
is a DLyte machine produced by GPA Innova; The World’s
First Dry Electro
Polishing System. The
DLyte range of
machines use a totally
unique, single step
automated process,
for polishing metals
by ion transport using
free solid bodies. This
is a revolutionary dry
non-abrasive electro
polishing process that
does not use any
liquid as the
electrolyte. These new

by the DLyte system
and precious metal
alloys components for the Dental, Medical, Aerospace,
Automotive and other industries. Typical applications
include bone screws, artificial hip and knee joints, turbine
blades, cutting tools, and any similar component whereby
fine surfaces finishes to under 0.09um Ra are required
without altering key part geometry after the previous
grinding or milling process.
Unlike traditional polishing systems, the DLyte system obtains
a consistent finish avoiding any polishing marks on the surface,
such as those generated by conventional machining, and is able to
process complex geometries without generating any micro
scratches on the surface. Chris Boraston, Managing Director at
AGS comments that “After seeing the DLyte machine we
immediately recognized just how unique and special it was and the
many advantages that it brings for the polishing of a wide variety
of parts; many of which are ground on the grinding machines we
