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.
