HydroRound™ Rotary Axis
(1.0 MB) |
|

Introducing the HydroRound™, hydrostatic rotary bearing, featuring a self compensating restrictor design with industry leading accuracy and moment stiffness. The HydroRound™ is designed for our Nanoform® and Freeform® systems to perform both 3-axis tool normal diamond turning and parallel grinding, as well as high performance, 4 and 5-axis raster milling and grinding.

Key Features
- Designed in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT).
- Unique self compensating restrictor design contributes to improved moment stiffness (best in the industry).
- High stiffness both horizontal and vertical.
- Higher damping characteristics vs. air bearing designs.
