Used SCHAUDT ZX 11 S 600 CNC Cylindrical Grinding Machine 1998

Used SCHAUDT ZX 11 S 600 CNC Cylindrical Grinding Machine (1998) – Low-Hours Storage Unit

High-precision SCHAUDT ZX 11 S 600 CNC external cylindrical grinding machine manufactured in Germany in 1998. 

Acquired in October 2006 as a used unit, this machine has never been placed into production by the current owner and has been kept in dry indoor storage without power connection.   

Equipped with a Siemens Sinumerik CNC control, integrated in-process measuring and positioning system, tailstock, and a specialized chuck for shaft components, this Schaudt ZX 11 is an ideal candidate for precision shaft grinding, retrofit projects, or immediate re-commissioning in automotive, aerospace, and general mechanical engineering.
