Rollomatic ShapeSmart NP50 pinch/peel grinding machine has new capabilities for high‐ accuracy punches and pins.

The non‐round process includes full pinch/peel grinding. Oblong punches, form punches, squares out of centre, corner radiuses, and any other shape can be produced with this method. The NP50 is designed and dedicated for cylindrical grinding of carbide, HSS and stainless-steel components.

Pinch grinding offers concentricity, particularly on long and thin parts. The rough and finish grinding are performed in one pass. The machine utilizes two different grinding wheels running on separate spindles and positioned on independently controlled CNC linear slides.
