hey everyone,
as i am usually good at reverse engineering any machinery, a friend of mine came to ask my help on repairing the feed speed rate on his surface grinder. Never having played in one before i tried to find more information on the machine, but all parts and tags have been sanded down to have a nice water-soluble paint applied.. like this will last long!
More detail. the x feed rate is adjusted by a small lever arm on the apron, and rotating it around will bring 2 sweet spot where it crawls around. He tried to adjust the speed of his hydraulic pump in the base, and got a marginaly better speed increase, but this came from 100psi and bumping it up to 140psi! Not good. Now i have to figure out the guts and innards of the new beast sitting in front of me.
Can anyone point me either in the direction of a few schematics or better yet figure out the type of machine it is?
thanks everyone!
