![]() | Recently, a Saudi Arabian energy equipment company contacted the Shanghai ANTISHICNC team. The company designs, builds, and supports the world's most advanced drilling, production, and energy conversion solutions, providing integrated systems and equipment to the global energy industry. They were looking for equipment to grind nylon PA-66 rods with a diameter of 16 mm and a length of 3000 mm. After confirming their processing requirements, accuracy, and production efficiency, they determined that our FX-18S center-less grinding machine would meet their external cylindrical grinding needs. |
The ANTISHICNC FX-18S center less grinder's spindle is constructed from high-grade Japanese SNCM-21H alloy steel, offering high precision and rigidity. The automatic lubrication circulation system utilizes high-quality spindle oil, which is temperature-controlled in the oil tank and filtered through two oil filters. A pressure controller ensures that the spindle operates at a constant oil pressure, ensuring spindle life and accuracy. The machine's highly rigid structure achieves exceptionally high roundness and finish, and the stringent production process standards ensure long-term precision and stability.

The customer's processing requirements were as follows
1.The machine needed to grind nylon PA-66 rods to precise dimensions that met the customer's specifications. Because these rods are relatively long and have a small outer diameter, they tend to be somewhat flexible. Our equipment needed to address this issue.
2.The ground nylon rods needed to achieve the customer's required surface finish, as these rods would be inserted into GRE pipes, and a smooth surface would prevent any insertion issues.
3. The customer wanted to know if our machine could taper one end of the nylon rods. What was the required run time per rod to achieve the finished product? The customer's processing parameters were as follows:
Unfinished Specifications: 16mm Diameter x 3000mm Length
Required Finished Specifications: 15mm Diameter x 1800mm Length
