- ELECTROMAGNETIC TABLE - Republic rotary grinders come standard with a forty-inch (40") diameter electromagnetic chuck. With a work height of 14" under new grinding wheel segments and 17" under used segments, this allows a large capacity to meet your requirements. Table speeds are 0, 9, 12,17rpm.
- GRINDING WHEEL - Republic rotary grinders are equipped with a twenty-one inch (21") diameter grinding wheel. Segment pockets are designed to accept all standard wheel segments. This grinding wheel head has rapid up and down, automatic feed or manual feed.
- CONTROL PANEL/DRESSER - For operator convenience, the controls are mounted on a control panel mounted to the right of the access door. Functions that are controlled from the operator's panel are: Start/Stop of the grinding wheel, drive unit of the grinding table, rapid movement of the grinding wheel, control of the electro-magnetic chuck and coolant system. A main motor amp-meter is mounted on the headstock. The wheel dresser unit is placed next to the main motor and uses standard "star-style" dressers.
- COOLANT SYSTEM - Republic Rotary Grinders are designed as a dry base machine with the coolant discharge located at the rear of the machine. This discharge can be used with a 210 gallon coolant tank, or connected to a central cooling system.
- MAIN SPINDLE - A forty (40 horsepower main spindle motor is supplied as standard equipment. This motor is dual voltage and will be set to each customer's electrical requirements. (220/440/3/60). Other voltages may require a transformer. (Option).
- BASE AND COLUMN - The stress relieved cast-iron components are manufactured with rigid box high-grade construction generously ribbed for strength. One flat and one "V" way provide bearing surface.
- ELECTRICAL CONTROL - All starters and protective relays for the motors are mounted in a steel cabinet on the back of the machine, completely wired to motors and push buttons. Just one connection to the power circuit is necessary for installation. The wheel motor has reduced voltage (Star Delta) starting and plugging, and full voltage running on 60 cycles, 3-phase current. Depressing the "Stop" button will quickly bring the spindle to a complete halt. A disconnect switch is included, interlocked with the door of the control cabinet. Pushbutton circuits are 115-volt and clearly marked for quick, easy identification. An ammeter for the main motor is conveniently located for ease of operation. This is a useful guide for maximum rate of feed, and shows when wheel dressing is necessary.
- LUBRICATION - The upper and lower spindle bearings are grease-lubricated periodically. Lubrication of the table ways, feed mechanism, lead screw and rotary table is continuous and automatic. The head ways and in-feed mechanism are lubricated from a semiautomatic pushbutton. Table rotation gears operate continuously in oil, in a casing sealed against dirt and water.
