VOLLMER expands the VGrind 360 series machines
with 360E model
V
OLLMER will offer a new model of the grinding
machine and add an E to its name. As an entry-
level model, the VGrind 360E is geared towards the
specific requirements of service companies and smaller tool
manufacturers.
With the VGrind 360E VOLLMER expands its portfolio for
machining carbide tools such as cutters, drills or reamers.
The E model possesses all the key functions and highlights
of the previous VGrind 360, but has been adapted in the
area of automation and is offered without a tool magazine
but has internal workpiece automation. The model also has a
modified design and a more compact control panel.
The VGrind 360E boasts the tried-and-tested double spindle
technology of the previous machine and the interior is
also identical to that of the VGrind 360 – i.e. it offers the

same dimensions for tool machining. Thanks to the proven
precision technology, tools can be machined in the same
quality and time as with the VGrind 360. With the adaptations
to automation, design and control panel, VOLLMER can
introduce the E model to the market at a considerably lower
price. The machine was primarily developed for tool grinding
in service companies, tool manufacturers with smaller
batches and end users.
“We adapted the VGrind 360 to different requirements and
markets in order to make tool grinding flexible”, states Dr.
Stefan Brand, CEO of VOLLMER in Biberach. “With the VGrind
360E we can achieve high precision at the cutting edge and
do this at an attractive price-performance ratio for all markets
worldwide.”
