Worm Wheel Generating Grinders

CNC Worm Wheel Gear Grinding Machine

The model #7236 model represents the most produced version QC manufactures. The 'A' model generating grinders have literally hundreds of installations around the world, with many having been retrofitted multiple times! A rugged workhorse, the #7236 utilizes the NUM Axium Power 1050H control system with conversational programming, SBS balancing and acoustics equipment, and Heidenhain rotary encoders and glass scales. A world class machine, the #7236 is rugged and simple enough to work day in and day out in a production or job-shop environment. With 360,0mm tip diameter (14") capacity, automatic stock dividing, on-board dressing and single-start threading capability, the #7236-A is always a stock machine at QC American!

Almost identical to its 'A' model sisters, the #7236-B is not a replacement to the 'A' but a more 'feature-rich' generating grinder platform. Also with hundreds of installations around the world, and utilizing the venerable NUM Axium Power 1050H control system, the #7236-B maintains the same footprint and overall specifications, but is well stocked with automatic features more amenable to higher throughput production grinding work. With up to three-start threading capability, the #7236-B has automatic stock sensing and dividing, grinding wheel braking, a more compact, a higher speed spindle than the 'A' model and CNC controlled workpiece angle setting. 360,0mm Tip Diameter (14") capacity.

The largest generating grinder in the QC line, the #7250 features 500,0mm tip diameter workpiece capacity (20"), a NUM Axium Power 1050H control system with NUM drives, conversational or g-code programming, SBS balancing and acoustics equipment and Heidenhain rotary encoders and glass scales throughout. The #7250 was a major innovation when introduced in 1998 and raised the bar for subsequent QC generating machines (like the #7236-B) with a multitude of innovative, world-class features. With standard automatic stock sensing and dividing, lead crowning, automatic wheel dressing and grinding wheel braking, the #7250 is a world-beating generating grinder platform and QC American can deliver one to order inside of 16 weeks.

QC American Model #YK7230 is the newest addition to our broad range of Generating grinders. During our review of high production automotive gears, it became very apparent that truly integrated, on-board automation was absolutely critical to increase throughput of the machine in question. The #7230, with a Siemens 840D control, 300,0mm capacity (12"), direct drive spindle, and multi-start capability fits this need admirably. With a small footprint and large enclosed area to accommodate a flexible load and unload station of workpieces, the #7230 is well positioned to provide outstanding service in a dedicated, high-production grinding environment. QC American can deliver these machines in 16 weeks or less.
