The perfect machine for the entry-level segment
STUDER S100 universal internal cylindrical grinding machine
High-precision, flexible and reliable: with the new S100,
STUDER presents the ideal universal internal cylindrical grinding
machine for the entry-level segment. Its excellent price-performance
ratio makes it the perfect machine for a wide range of internal
grinding applications.
“The S100 internal grinding entry-level machine perfectly complements
our comprehensive internal grinding portfolio”, explained CSO Sandro
Bottazzo, when presenting the S100 at BI-MU Exhibition for Machine Tools
in Milan.
Like all STUDER cylindrical grinding machines, the S100 has also a
machine bed made of Granitan®. Its outstanding dampening, and thermal
characteristics ensure consistently good
grind ing results and the renowned STUDER
precision. During the development special
attention was given to a simple and efficient
design of the components, making operation
and maintenance easier for the operator.
However, the equipment of the S100 also
makes it suitable for grinding a universal
spectrum of parts comprising of geometrically
defined basic forms and contours, which
can be generated with interpolating axes.
Flexible equipment ensures a
diversity of parts
The machine can be equipped with up to two
internal grinding spindles or one internal and
one external spindle. In addition to a fixed
wheelhead, it can be equipped with a manual
with a 2.5 degree Hirth and, in its optimum
configuration, with an automatic wheelhead
with 1 degree Hirth. A synchronous motor
drives the grease-lubricated internal and external
belt spindles. The machine is operated
by the Fanuc 0i-TF PLUS controller, together
with the proven STUDER operating system.
A further advantage of the S100 is the automation
option. On request it can be equipped
with a loading interface and an automatic
sliding door, enabling automatic operation
and the production of large series.
Typical workpieces for production on the
S100 include collets for toolmaking, bearing
rings, ball bearings and cylinders, as well as
hydraulic control valves in small series.
External and internal machining of flange
parts or grinding of threads or non-circular
forms is also possible. The competent and reliable
STUDER Customer Care is naturally
also on hand to provide advice and technical
support for the S100.
