This new ultra-compact electrolysis and grinding machine uses WALTER's 14-year-old "two-in-one" design concept, which is specifically designed for the production and re-grinding of PCD tools. More than 165 mm, for end face machining, the machined length is no more than 185 mm, and for external machining, the machined length is no more than 255 mm.

HELITRONICDIAMONDEVOLUTION

HELITRONICDIAMONDEVOLUTION can electrolyze and/or grind PCD tools on a floor area of only 4.2 square meters. The machine tools include end mills, profile cutters, disc cutters and hobs, step cutters and sinks. Hole drills as well as cutting inserts and forming inserts. Grinding of such tools requires high drive power. With a drive power of 9 kW, HELITRONICDIAMONDEVOLUTION introduces the most powerful grinding spindle drive on the market. Like other WALTER other "two-in-one" electrolytic machining and grinding machines, the HELITRONICDIAMONDEVOLUTION comes standard with DIAMOND-PLUS for optimum cutting edge and machining time.

Scalability

The HELITRONICDIAMONDEVOLUTION can also be equipped with a robotic loader that can be equipped with up to 72 HSK tools or up to 7,500 cylindrical tools (depending on the diameter), with this perfect solution for unloading.

Innovative technology that keeps pace with the times

The trend in the PCD market is very clear. Lightweight and sturdy materials have become the darling of the aerospace industry and the automotive industry, such as high-strength aluminum alloys and carbon fiber reinforced plastics. In order to machine these materials, tools with polycrystalline diamond (PCD) superhard inserts and complex geometries are required. There is a clear development in the design of such tools: the tools become smaller and the geometry is more complex and more varied. In addition, for cost reasons, the tool manufacturing machine area should be as small as possible, and the machine tool payback period should be short.

Now, with the development of HELITRONICDIAMONDEVOLUTION, WALTER has found an ideal solution: this is a cost-effective machine with minimal floor space for electrolytic machining and grinding of hard alloys. Flexible software is ideal for producing common PCD tools. For this purpose, the world-renowned grinding software HELITRONICTOOLSTUDIO has been expanded for electrolytic machining. 3D real-time simulations, collision analysis, and applications such as negative chamfers and variable spirals are just a few examples of PCD tool programming flexibility. WALTER's HELITRONICTOOLSTUDIO will continue to evolve based on customer requirements and tool processing technology. This will ensure that toolmakers and grinding processors can apply the best machine solution today and in the future.
