Complete tool grinding capacity from 3/32” to 1-1/8". One inch/minute for solid carbide in one pass flute grinding. Fully automatic with 3D probing. Custom auto-loader capabilities
The MCT5000 CNC Tool & Cutter Grinder is the most
affordable 5 axis advanced CNC tool & cutter grinder. The cost just a
little over one year of an experienced tool grinder’s salary, but will produce
three to four times more than an experienced tool grinder with a manual
machine!

- G code on/off line programming form-tool grinding
Machine System
The machine body of the MCT5000 Tool & Cutter Grinder is
a fully enclosed grinding machine. It is built on a strong steel base with a
6" thick granite on top for dampening. All X, Y, Z axis are built with
precision linear guide ways and ball-screws for providing smoother control and
long lasting machine life. The machine has two rotary axes. The C axis is
mounted on top of the Y axis and carries the X, U, V, and A axis. The C axis is
capable of swiveling within 230 deg. around the rotary center for radius, ball
nose and left/right hand rotary or flat tool grinding without sacrificing tool
grinding length. The machine is also equipped with 3/4 horse power coolant
pump, a 30 gallons coolant tank and a filter system.
Spindle Power
The MCT5000 series 5 axis CNC Tool & Cutter grinder
provides a standard variable speed 5 hp spindle motor. The spindle is belt
driven for easy maintenance.
Air collet closer
Standard 5C air collet closer for quick and easy tool
changing by hand. This capability improves operator efficiency while running
the machine.
Software
The Machine Control Technology's MCT5000 series 5 axis CNC Tool & Cutter
Grinders have built-in macro-programs for end mil, reamer; counter-sink
step-drill, step O.D. and engraving tools with spiral or straight flute
grinding, Just fill in the tool grinding information, no expensive grinding
software are needed to run the machine. Custom built-in special programs are
also our advantage over the other expansive CNC tool grinders, only Machine
Control Technology is flexible enough to do that. Besides all these built-in
software, the MCT5000 Tool & Cutter grinders are also allowing you to write
your own programs with G-code in edit mode.
Automatic Probing
The optional automatic probe is provided for faster, easier
and more accurate checking on helical lead length, flute length and flute
position for regrinding.
Lead Length Probing
The automatic lead length probing capability is an optional feature which allows setting the touch probe to touch two points on the tool flute edge. The machine will automatically calculate the lead length and place the lead length value in the auto-programming menu as one of the menu input data.
Programmable Reload Pointer
The programmable reload pointer is also a standard feature
designed as a 3 dimensional stop for locating the reloading tool to the
starting position without the automatic probe. When the machine finishes
grinding the current tool moved to the packing position, then you unload and
load another tool, press the "Enter” key, a reload pointer will move to
the reload position to tell you where you should lineup and lock your reloaded
tool. Then press "Enter" to start another cycle.
Autoloader Capability
The MCT integrated optional autoloader is a patent pending
advanced auto-loader that is capable of loading different size and shapes of
tools or parts, for the MCT5000 Tool & Cutter Grinder. And it can also be
designed for custom applications and requirement.
CNC Controller
The MCT5000s CNC controller is perhaps the most compact, dedicated and yet flexible CNC controller for tool grinding machines you can find. It is specifically designed for the tool & cutter grinding machines by Machine Control Technology with lots of experience in electronic controller design. The controller is easy to use and is a reliable controller, with machine control technology's free phone technical support, you can count on it.
