DRILL & Tool Grinders

Model 132C

Rush Model 132C Rush Drill & Tool Grinder

The Model 132C incorporates versatility, rapid setup and accuracy into a rugged and affordable machine. It has a .080" (2 mm) to 1.25" (32 mm) diameter capacity and it can grind tools with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 10 flutes.

Our unique design features point splitting and web thinning capability and it allows quick grinding of almost any HSS or carbide drill point. The proper geometry for the application can maximize drilling performance to provide the lowest cost per hole.

Stepdrills, taps, reamers, countersinks and endmill ends are easily ground with minimal setup changes. In addition, the standard workhead can be exchanged in less than one minute with the optional air-bearing attachment for grinding endmill ODs.

Optional Accessories

	Heavy-duty cabinet stand.
	Flood coolant system.
	Powered workhead for semi-automatic operation.
	Halogen worklamp.
	Diamond and CBN grinding wheels.
	Overhead wheel dresser.
	Air-bearing endmill OD grinding attachment.

Semi-Automatic Version

The power-driven workhead of the semi-automatic version offers a quiet, smooth rotation of the workhead. Manual effort is reduced for heavier grinding and spin grinding operations. Sparkout is allowed to occur by using a minimum of manual infeed along with a reduction in workhead rotation. The speed is controlled by a conveniently located valve; the adjacent four-way valve allows grinding in either direction. A hand knob on the workhead is used for indexing and setup.

Air bearing Fixture on Model 132C (shown in lower photo)

Allows precision sharpening of endmills, reamers, shell mills and other cutters. The spindle is supported with a thin film of air providing nearly frictionless motion, resulting in a smooth, even grind. The fixture quickly mounts on the Model 132C, 250A, 252, 380 or 382S grinders, or is available with a universal base to fit most tool and cutter or surface grinders.

Features:

Hard chrome plated and ground spindle with a 10" stroke. Tools are held in 5-C or 5-CG collets or extension bushings for up to 2" (50 mm) shanks.

	Flute finger has dovetail crossfeed and micrometer vertical adjustment.
	Direct angle settings for up to 20 degrees for the O.D., 360 degrees for rotation, and 30 degrees for tilt (fore and aft).
	Rocker arm tilts fixture away for easy movement from one flute to the next.
	Grinds the O.D. of any number of flutes and includes 12-position index plate (others available) for end grinding.
	Unique micrometer infeed built into fixture. Allows fine-feeding of the tool into the wheel. It is graduated in .001" (or .04 mm) of diameter.

Overhead Wheel Dresser

Timesaving option allows truing of the grinding wheel O.D. without changing the setup.

Features:

	Sealed linear bearing with hardened guide shafts
	Detented downfeed in .001" increments
	Hardened downfeed screw with wiper seal
	High-quality diamond included for truing standard and ceramic wheels
