Rush Wheel Truing and Dressing Machines

Ideal for tool manufacturers and grinding wheel manufacturers and production grinding facilities, the economical Rush Wheel Truing and Dressing Machines are designed for the truing and dressing of flats, angles and radii on diamond and CBN single wheels and multiple wheel packs. The machines are simple to operate, highly accurate, and cost effective. The customized, easy to use, ExVision video software makes high-tolerance truing and dressing easier than ever before and ensures accurate generation of wheel forms. The ExVision software program is specifically configured for the Rush wheel truing and dressing machines and their various applications.

Fully enclosed slides and ways result in minimal wear for long machine life. The solid cast iron base provides rigid, vibration-free wheel forming. Machines are available with capacities up to 42" diameter to meet every application’s size requirement. Conveniently located controls allow speed and efficiency when dressing wheels. A digital angle reader for pivot axis with 0.03 degree increments is standard. All slides have linear ways and ball screws and are fully enclosed.

Options include an AZP (Automatic Zoom Positioning) computer controlled 2-axis slide for camera positioning, an automated version with PLC and servo control for truing wheel infeed and pivot axes, a dust collection system, and quick-change spindle adapters for most CNC and manual grinders.

Rush Grinding Fluid Filtration System

Ideal for the grinding, honing and lapping industries, the Rush Grinding Fluid Filtration System is a high performance filtration system that utilizes edge filtration technology. Balanced clean and dirty fluid tank sizes ensure separation of clean and dirty fluids, even during the automatic regeneration cycle. Unlike other systems, this system can filter either oil or water, resulting in a high degree of filtration with minimal customer maintenance. For use with carbide, HSS, stainless steel and other materials, the Rush system allows reclamation of high value materials.

Single and multiple pump configurations are available for clean fluid delivery and make the system highly flexible to meet customers' requirements. For dirty fluid handling, the system uses seal-less cast iron filter pumps that extend pump life.

Rush Machinery offers customized systems designed for specific machines and shop floor layout. Single and multiple machine and centralized configurations are available. All pneumatic and electrical controls are housed in conveniently located enclosures. Grinding Fluid Filtration System options include pre-filters for removing steel swarf when filtering steel or a mix of carbide and steel, as well as a selection of large capacity cooling systems made specifically for oil or water.

Rush “Auto-Cut” CNC Carbide Rod Cut-Off Machine

The Rush Auto-Cut CNC Carbide Rod Cut-Off Machine gives tool manufacturers and carbide rod processors the capability to automatically cut carbide rod into precision lengths. Because the machine automatically loads and cuts rod, it is ideal for unattended operation. Unlike other cut-off machines, this machine offers full enclosure of the work area and a flood coolant system.

To accommodate long production runs, the machine features a large capacity magazine with an automatic loader. A wide variety of length/cut combinations are possible. Parameters can be quickly set for rod diameter and length with easy-to-use CNC controls featuring a user friendly operator interface. An optical edge detection system monitors and compensates for wheel wear.

Diameter capacity from .55" to 1-9/16", a 5.5 hp spindle motor, and the flood coolant system are standard on the Auto-Cut Carbide Rod Cut-Off Machine. A fire suppression system for use with oils is optional.
