The machine can be equipped with up to 2 grinding spindles and a sensor in the grinding head.
Various tool changing systems are available for the RP 8 model.

Today, complete work piece machining has become an important feature.

The following operations can be machined in only one set-up:

  • All machining applications of the Ri grinding centres
  • Horizontal machining
  • Grinding of guide ways
  • 3-axis jig grinding
  • Flat grinding in oscillating movement
  • Machining of special materials, for example special types of class or ceramics

All diameters and faces can be measured automatically by an optionally integrated measuring unit. For noncircular and jig grinding, this measuring unit can also be used for the localisation of a work piece.
