SNI Announces New Lineup
of Bearing Grinders
copyright © 2003 eBearing Inc.

Service Network Inc. (SNI, USA) announced it has added to its lineup of grinding equipment specifically designed for the bearing industry.

SNI's new machines, the SN200/400/800-E series, are high performance grinders for bearing race OD's.

The E series grinder lineup compliments the company's line of ID grinders, introduced in 2001. The SN400-I found rapid acceptance and leveraged SNI's position as a vendor to all of the world's largest bearing manufacturers. As a result, the company said it already has firm orders for the new SN-E series OD grinders.

The grinders use high-precision hydrostatic slides for positioning, built on a "super-stiff" machine base and platform which maintains accuracy even in high horsepower applications.

In addition to high-precision capabilities, the new OD grinders are flexible. They can be set up as shoe centerless machines or chuckers; races up to 190mm OD can be set up for autoloading; races up to 750mm OD can be hand loaded.

Founded in 1984, SNI not only manufactures a wide range of single and multi-spindle grinding machines, but also offers rebuilding, upgrading and parts services for older Heald machines -- hundreds, if not thousands, of which are still floating around bearing factories. SNI also offers its own custom grinding software, designed to interface with a variety of standard control option packages.
