Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Palmary OCD-65300 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-65300 is a 3,000 mm (118.1 in) heavy duty CNC cylindrical grinder with Ø650 mm (25.6 in) of swing over the table. It grinds diameters up to Ø620 mm (24.4 in) on parts weighing up to 800 kg (1,764 lb) between centers.
One line of its table stands out from the rest of the series: table swivel is 0° to 2°. The OCD-65220 gives 0° to 4° and even the longer OCD-65400 is listed at 0° to 3°. Whether that is a property of this bed or a slip in Palmary's table is not clear from the page, so anyone who needs taper on a three-metre roll should confirm the figure.
The remaining figures follow the pattern of the range. Table stroke is 3,520 mm (138.6 in), wheelhead stroke 350 mm (13.8 in), both at 10 m/min (394 ipm) rapid with 0.001 mm increments. The wheel is Ø610 mm, between 50 and 125 mm wide, and takes 11 kW (14.8 hp). The fixed workhead has a 5.5 kW (7.4 hp) servo motor and a No. 5 Morse taper center.
Long, large rolls are often crowned or profiled. This page does not list a crowning function; what it offers is CNC control of X and Z from a FANUC controller and Palmary's remark that the external wheel can grind a formed outside diameter in one pass. Weight is 16,000 kg (35,273 lb) and total power 33 kVA.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Up to 3,000 mm (118.1 in) between centers and Ø620 mm (24.4 in) in ground diameter, under a Ø650 mm (25.6 in) swing. The maximum load between centers is 800 kg (1,764 lb), which rules out solid steel bodies near full size.
02
The table lists a swivel angle of 0° to 2° for this model. The work spindle head is fixed at 0°. Because the neighbouring OCD-65400 is listed with 0° to 3°, it is worth asking Palmary to confirm the figure for your order.
03
Wheel spindle 11 kW (14.8 hp); workhead AC servo 5.5 kW (7.4 hp); wheelhead feed AC servo 2.8 kW (3.8 hp); table feed AC servo 4.4 kW (5.9 hp). An optional internal grinding spindle is listed at 0.75 kW (1.0 hp). Total power is 33 kVA.
04
Palmary's standard accessories are a FANUC CNC controller, grinding wheel and flange, tailstock-mounted diamond tool holder, hydraulic tailstock, linear scale for the X axis, carbide tipped work centers, semi-enclosed splash guard, hydraulic and coolant tanks with pumps, work lamp and a vibration meter.
