LMC Workholding / Richter Manual Steady Rests...

Grinding Steady Rest (Type 6)

In grinding steady rests, different materials are used for gliding instead of rollers to facilitate tool contact. These are: White metal, bronze, Pertinax or special types of plastic. Grinding also takes place in the center of a special steady, whereby a concentricity of up to 2µ is achieved! These steady rests are suitable for loads up to the two-digit ton range.

This steady is also fitted with the protected electronic measuring device. The steady can identify the center of its machine and the sleeves can be preset on the basis of the workpiece diameter. This idea, which is patented, was devised by the master toolmaker, Harry Richter and then developed for application by Richter Vorrichtungsbau.
