Höfler MEGA 1600 grinding machine
| With the introduction of the Mega 1600 CNC gear
grinding machine and HF 1600 gear cutting machine - both manufactured
by Höfler - the gearwheel production time has been halved.
Subsequently this leads to a significantly shorter delivery time for
both servicing and repairing gearboxes. The Mega 1600 gear-grinding machine was chosen by Stork Gears & Services especially due to the hobbing-principle of this machine. Gear hobbing offers more flexibility than contour grinding for one-off products and small series. When the product table rotates, the grinding-stone is manoeuvred by the control system to all necessary positions needed to carry out the correct profile corrections. With the Mega 1600 Stork Gears & Services can guarantee a grinding quality up to class 4 and, depending on the gear, sometimes-even class 3 (according to DIN 3962), whereas formerly only class 6 was obtainable. The machine is suitable for product diameters up to 1600 mm and a maximum width of 800 mm.
