TRAVERSE DRIVE RPM
The TRAVERSE SPEED
of the GRINDING HEAD CARRIAGE is adjustable from approximately 5 feet
per minute [1.5 meters per minute] to 20 feet per minute [6 meters per minute]. It is recommended
to grind around 15 feet per minute [4 meters per minute]. Grinding at a slower traverse speed, 10
feet per minute[3 meters per minute] will give a better finish but will extend the grind cycle time.
Traverse drive speed is solely controlled by the operator and not by any PROGRAM.
