Centerless Polisher/Buffing Fixture | MSD-P-15
A sturdy 2” x 4” tubular frame (standard frame length is 15 ft.) consists of two sets of polyurethane rollers.
The polishing head is driven horizontally the length of the fixture by a vector A.C. drive. A rack and pinion drive system is used for smooth traversing of the carriage. The head is supported by four Teflon lined guides, which slide on aluminum support rails.
Our centerless polisher/buffer features a sturdy 2” x 4” tubular frame consists of two sets of polyurethane rollers. The gear motor drives one set, and the other set is easily adjusted to accommodate shafts from 1” to 14” OD.
MS-D’s centerless polisher uses a “G & P 72” abrasive belt polisher Model B372-3 as its polishing head. The head uses a 3” X 72” belt and is driven by a 3 HP 230/460 volt, 3 phase, 60 hz. motor.
We also make a 5 HP head with a 3” x 90” belt available to increase the time between belt changes. A larger horsepower head with a longer belt is available to increase productivity and increase the time between belt changes.
A vector A.C. drive runs the polishing head horizontally the length of the fixture. A rack and pinion drive system smoothly traverses the carriage. Four Teflon lined guides that slide on aluminum support rails support the head.
You can add a remote jog can to speed up set time or to manually polish and area.
As an option, we can offer these in a buffing wheel only or buffing wheel & belt combination.
