I noticed you did NOT balance the wheel assembly, ie the flange hub and the wheel for true running, most metal grinding machines ( cylindrical or otherwise) of this size wheel require balancing, just like your car tyre's rims, is there a reason why?, does this "dressing" do the same job?; also noticed unlike above mentioned wheels, you didn't torque the screws on the hub with a torque wrench, why.
Thanks for the video , I just purchased a profile grinder and noticed that all the brand new 10 inch wheels looked like only one side was dressed . Is that common , If so please let me know . Thank you , Pete with woodworking and Metalworking supplies in Fresno California
Hey Pete, From what you’ve supplied I’m assuming you’re talking about 225 x 5mm Aluminium Oxide wheels? These wheels need to be dressed for thickness anyway to suit the tracing pin/stylus. All wheels need to be dressed to ‘true’ them up. The visual appearance of one dressed face is due to the pressing/manufacturing process. Cheers, Chris @ Accurate
@@accurateaustralianz I apologize for not writing my question better . When I said the new wheels looked dressed I was attempting to describe that the grinding wheel was originally thicker than needed and to make it match the stylist material was removed on only one side of the wheel . The removed amount was about 2" from the arbor. Is that a safe wheel . Thank you pete
@@petedetects7012 I understand now. If the wheels are only dressed on one side, ensure the wheel and stylist are a match. This is not best practice though. The dressing process is usually done on the machine as required; At Accurate we dress both sides. From what you are describing, I would say the wheels are fine (safe) however the only true test of a wheels integrity is to “ring test” prior to mounting on the machine. We released a video on the ring test, you can view here: ruclips.net/video/QSQiLxDBpu8/видео.html Hope that helps! Cheers Chris @ Accurate
U dont want your wheel exactly the same size because these machines have give to them. What i mean is if you push hard side to side or any angle will essentially make the wheel grind the knives like its a few thousandths bigger.
A 0-1"" or 0-25mm mic with carbide anvils alot more accurate than those Digi verniers...Wheel not balanced either,.. could give you loads of problems....lead error..spacing.....
Good 👍

Très bonne présentation.
What kind of grinding wheels do you use for rough and finish pass

@@accurateaustralianz the ring test is really important. I seen a wheel that look like it exploded because it was not checked.

I need radius attachment, our radius is R2 to R10
What is your rpm speed of this machine
thanks for sharing
I have a diamond dresser
