Frequently Asked Questions

What is the EMTU series hydraulic cylindrical grinding machine used for?
+

The Elitech EMTU series hydraulic cylindrical grinding machine is used for precision external OD grinding of cylindrical components including automotive shafts, bearing components, rollers, spindles and general engineering parts in both tool room and production environments.

What grinding lengths are available in EMTU series?
+

The EMTU series is available in six standard models — EMTU 450, 600, 800 for shorter components and EMTU 1000, 1250, 1500 for longer shafts up to 1500mm grinding length. Maximum component weight is 60kg for smaller models and 90kg for larger models.

What is the workhead speed range of EMTU series?
+

The EMTU series workhead spindle speed ranges from 50 to 450 RPM with variable speed control — suitable for grinding a wide variety of component materials and sizes with optimal surface finish.

Can the EMTU series perform internal grinding?
+

Yes. An optional internal grinding attachment is available for the EMTU series with Ø60mm or Ø80mm spindle operating at 18000 RPM — enabling both external OD and internal bore grinding on the same machine.

What is the difference between hydraulic and CNC cylindrical grinding machine?
+

A hydraulic cylindrical grinding machine uses a hydraulic system for table movement and is manually controlled — ideal for tool room and small batch production at lower cost. A CNC cylindrical grinding machine uses servo motors with CNC controller for fully automatic, repeatable grinding cycles — ideal for medium to high volume production requiring consistent accuracy.

Is the EMTU series suitable for tool room applications?
+

Yes. The Elitech EMTU series hydraulic cylindrical grinding machine is specifically designed for tool room applications requiring high precision. Its rigid construction, white metal bush wheel spindle and fine feed control make it ideal for precision grinding of tools, gauges, dies and fixtures.

What optional features are available on EMTU series?
+

The EMTU series is available with optional internal grinding attachment, in-process gauging system, hydraulic rapid approach and larger centre height configuration for wider swing diameter components.

Does Elitech offer hydraulic cylindrical grinding machines for export?
+

Yes. Elitech Machine Tools manufactures and exports the EMTU series hydraulic cylindrical grinding machine worldwide with service network across India including Rajkot, Ahmedabad, Pune, Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru and export internationally in Singapore, Turkey, Africa and UAE.
