Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Palmary OCD-65220 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Palmary OCD-65220 combines the Ø650 mm (25.6 in) swing of the OCD-65 heavy duty CNC cylindrical grinders with 2,200 mm (86.6 in) between centers. Maximum grinding diameter is Ø620 mm (24.4 in) and the load between centers 800 kg (1,764 lb).
Palmary names its target work plainly on the product page: oversized gear shafts, printing shafts, rolling shafts, motor shafts, rubber rolling shafts and rollers. The 65 series is for the fatter end of that list. A 5.5 kW (7.4 hp) servo motor turns the part at 0 to 210 rpm, and an 11 kW (14.8 hp) motor drives a Ø610 mm wheel.
The structure is the argument for the series. Palmary describes a low, reinforced machine base of Meehanite cast iron that has been annealed and aged, with hydrostatic sliding tables whose repeat precision it puts at the micron level, without quoting a number. The table strokes 2,750 mm (108.3 in) and swivels 0° to 4°.
For set-up, the hydraulic tailstock moves 60 mm (2.4 in) and rides on what Palmary calls a horizontal air bearing so it can be shifted along the bed. Wheel balancing is by hand with the supplied vibration meter unless the automatic balancer is ordered. The machine is listed at 14,000 kg (30,864 lb) and 33 kVA, with a 230 L (60.8 gal) coolant tank.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Ø620 mm (24.4 in) grinding diameter over 2,200 mm (86.6 in) between centers
- 2,750 mm (108.3 in) table stroke with 0° to 4° of table swivel
- Hydraulic tailstock on an air bearing for easy repositioning, as Palmary describes it
- Reinforced Meehanite cast iron base, annealed and aged
Limitations
- 800 kg (1,764 lb) load rating is shared with the much smaller-swing OCD-45220
- No accuracy figure is published; Palmary only says repeat precision reaches the micron level
- Automatic wheel balancer and gap control are options
- 14,000 kg (30,864 lb) installation weight

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Swing over table Ø650 mm (25.6 in), distance between centers 2,200 mm (86.6 in), maximum external grinding diameter Ø620 mm (24.4 in), maximum load between centers 800 kg (1,764 lb), wheel motor 11 kW (14.8 hp), machine weight 14,000 kg (30,864 lb).
02
Ø610 mm outside diameter with a 203.2 mm bore, in widths from 50 to 125 mm. Peripheral speed is 33 m/s (6,496 ft/min). The standard accessories include a grinding wheel and flange and a vibration meter for manual balancing.
03
The page gives resolution, not accuracy: a 0.001 mm minimum setting unit on X and minimum input increment on Z, with a linear scale on X as standard. Palmary describes the repeat precision of the hydrostatic slides as reaching the micron level. Ask for test figures before ordering.
04
No. The standard accessory list gives a semi-enclosed splash guard. Coolant is handled by a 230 L (60.8 gal) tank with pump, and a magnetic coolant separator and a paper filter are optional accessories for this series.
