The outstanding advantages of the Evo Combi

Low cost per workpiece
  • Shorter grinding times thanks to very high material removal rates
  • Short transfers due to agile handling and internal dressing
  • Complete machining without re-clamping
  • Standardized, compatible Agathon tools
  • Fast product change due to off-line programming and graphic simulation
  • Up to 50% cycle time reduction with PowerGrind
  • Low-maintenance components
Flexibility (materials, process)
  • K-Lands on both sides without re-clamping
  • Extended swivel angles and travel ranges for significantly more geometries
  • Free combination of various dressing methods
  • Largest possible range of applications from IC 3.96 mm to OD 100 mm
  • Suited for all common indexable insert materials
  • Reduced energy requirements through consistent Eco-design
Maximum availability
