Amazon bottom blade grinders.
Designed to save time without compromising performance, engineered to deliver fast, accurate sharpening with a guaranteed quality finish. All of our grinders are CE compliant meeting Health and Safety requirements for noise, vibration and airborne dust particles.
The all new Amazon boasts two powerful motors which drive the twin wheelheads, both fitted with cup stones to allow the removal of metal quickly and efficiently.
The new variable speed traverse motor provides fast traversing for the speedy removal of material from the bottom blade. At the press of a button, the traverse will slow down gently to a polishing speed without disrupting the operation in progress. This will also reduce machining time.
A fixed inclinometer provides quick and easy setting of the front face motor to the correct cutting angle, whilst a portable magnetic inclinometer ensures quick and easy setting of the top face angle of the blade.
The tailstocks provide positive and quick adjustment in both planes for ease of horizontal and vertical alignment. In-feed is automatic and down-feed is manual, for ease of operation and time saving for the operator. The new Amazon is easily operated from an accessible, simple to use digital control panel. The all-new electrical installation includes safe single phase control and a carefully positioned Emergency Stop to maximise operator safety. The Amazon is fully enclosed in a roll-back canopy with clear viewing window.
