DANOBAT surface grinder installed for the Dutch company De Rooy
01-03-2016Milling and measuring workpieces up to three metres in width has been quite common at the company De Rooy Slijpcentrum from Nuenen (the Netherlands). Grinding operations, however, were another story. Until now! With the purchase of a new DANOBAT surface grinder, the company can now also machine the largest workpieces with the utmost accuracy.
"We managed to handle wide workpieces for milling and measuring, but for grinding we were limited to a width of 1700 mm and a workpiece weight of 10 tonnes." says Dirk De Rooy, who leads the company together with his brother Adam. Now, with the arrival of the brand new DANOBAT surface grinder this February, that limitation is overcome.
