Abstract :
It is shown that software coupled with proven hardware provides the solution for controlling the grinding variables for roll grinders. The control system presented provides the user with the following benefits: (1) the ability to grind rolls with precise motion control to obtain predictable accuracy and surface finish with a minimum of operator input; (2) computer control of the four main grinding variables, i.e. wheel speed, infeed, roll speed, and traverse; (3) reduction of machine downtime by the computer-based control interface that monitors critical operations and provides diagnostics for troubleshooting; and (4) optional on-machine caliper with display of measured roll data that enables the operator to make online corrections of the roll profiles (printout of final grind profile to specified tolerance).<>
