Overview

The Palmary OCD-32100 stretches the OCD-32 CNC cylindrical grinder to 1,000 mm (39.4 in) between centers. Swing stays at Ø320 mm (12.6 in) and the maximum grinding diameter at Ø300 mm (11.8 in), so this is the model for long, fairly slim shafts.

Slim is the operative word. The load between centers is 150 kg (331 lb), the same as on the short OCD-3240, and at a metre of length that figure is reached quickly with steel. Palmary's optional 2-point and adjustable 3-point steady rests are worth pricing in for anything flexible.

Table stroke is 1,315 mm (51.8 in) at 10 m/min (394 ipm). To turn longer and heavier work the workhead servo motor goes up to 1.5 kW (2.0 hp), against 1 kW (1.3 hp) on the OCD-3260, with the same 10 to 300 rpm range. The table swivel changes character at this length: -3° to +8°, where the shorter beds swivel in one direction only. Being able to go negative helps when correcting taper on a long part.

The grinding end is shared with the rest of the family: Ø405 mm wheel, 50 to 75 mm wide, 5.5 kW (7.4 hp), hybrid hydro-static spindle bearings and a 260 mm (10.2 in) wheelhead stroke with a linear scale. FANUC control and a fully enclosed splash guard are standard. The machine weighs 4,300 kg (9,480 lb) and draws 18 kVA.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

1,000 mm (39.4 in) between centers with 1,315 mm (51.8 in) of table stroke
Table swivels to both sides, -3° to +8°, for taper correction on long shafts
Workhead servo motor of 1.5 kW (2.0 hp), larger than on the two shorter OCD-32 models
Same 18 kVA total power as the short-bed machines

Limitations

Still 150 kg (331 lb) between centers, a modest figure for 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of length
Maximum positive table swivel drops to 8°
Steady rests and the hydraulic tailstock are optional accessories
Tailstock stroke of 25 mm (1.0 in) and fine adjustment of ±0.03 mm leave little range for long-part taper set-up without the table swivel

Best For

Long shafts up to 1,000 mm (39.4 in) between centers Slender ground bars and piston rods supported by optional steady rests Traverse grinding along a 1,315 mm (51.8 in) table stroke Motor and pump shafts under 150 kg (331 lb) in weight

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the maximum part length on the Palmary OCD-32100?

1,000 mm (39.4 in) between centers. The table stroke is 1,315 mm (51.8 in), so the wheel can run past both ends of a full-length part. Diameter capacity is Ø300 mm (11.8 in) under a Ø320 mm (12.6 in) swing, and the weight limit between centers is 150 kg (331 lb).

02 Does the OCD-32100 need steady rests?

The table does not say, but the figures suggest it for slender work: 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of length on M.T. No. 4 centers with a 150 kg (331 lb) limit. Palmary offers a 2-point steady rest and an adjustable 3-point steady rest as optional accessories.

03 How much does the OCD-32100 weigh and what power does it need?

Net weight is 4,300 kg (9,480 lb), against 3,600 kg (7,937 lb) for the OCD-3260. Total power is 18 kVA. The coolant tank holds 120 L (31.7 gal) and the three lubrication and hydraulic tanks 31 L (8.2 gal) each.

04 Is there a larger-swing version of the OCD-32100?

Yes. The OCD-42100 has the same 1,000 mm (39.4 in) between centers and 1,315 mm (51.8 in) table stroke with Ø420 mm (16.5 in) of swing and Ø400 mm (15.7 in) grinding diameter, at a weight of 4,500 kg (9,921 lb).
