Tungsten Electrode Grinder
.
You will see that this has been designed and manufactured
specifically for grinding tungsten electrodes. its design prevents
the grinding of other items to minimise the risk of contaminating
your tungsten electrodes.
Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT
®
has a wide experience of the
performance of different tungsten electrode types. So, if you want
to eliminate the risk of breathing in radioactive thoria dust from your
thoriated tungstens, contact us for details of the non-thoriated, non-
radioactive type which perform twice as well as thoriated tungstens.
Unless you have specifically ordered a 220V Tungsten Grinder, your
model will be for operation on a 110V 50/60 Hz AC single phase
supply. Ensure that the correct plug is fitted for connection to your
110V supply or a suitable transformer at 1 KVA rating.
if your grinder arrives fitted with a 220V UK plug and your electrical
requirement is different, arrange for a competent person to rewire
with a new plug to suit your electrical socket or use a suitable
adaptor.
The grinder is delivered with a multi-hole tappet to allow the grinding
of 1.0, 1.6, 2.4 and 3.2 electrodes. A special collet set can be ordered
separately for the grinding of short electrodes. Single hole tappets
are also available for larger sizes such as 4.0, 4.8, 6.4mm and larger.
