Modernize or a new grinder?
It is understandable that every roll shop manager would like to have a new roll grinder instead of a revamped machine. However, with the high cost of a new roll grinder and the cost of a new foundation, it makes more economic sense to opt for the revamping of an existing machine, as there is an immediate saving by not having to construct a new foundation. Upgrading an existing roll grinder also means lower capital outlay without sacrificing performance and accuracy. An existing machine can be upgraded mechanically and electrically to perform exactly the same tasks as the most modern roll grinding machines. The grinding capacity of an existing machine can be more than doubled by switching to a fully integrated automated CNC grinding package.

- no foundation reworking or new foundation required
