Machinery Spotlight: Kapp Niles ZP-12 Gear Grinder
As one of the most trusted gear manufacturers in Ontario, it is vital that we at True Gear & Spline continually increase our CNC machining capabilities. Thanks to our Kapp Niles ZP-12 gear grinder, we have been able to continue servicing various industries in Canada, helping to keep the economy going during these tough times.
One of the specialized capabilities of this machine is to grind gears for the agricultural feed industry. True Gear is proud to be part of the effort to feed Canadians, especially now when stable supply chains have never been more important.
Having been recently redesigned, the new Kapp Niles ZP-12 will be able to grind larger gears, with much higher tolerance as well as increased speed. With these enhanced capabilities, True Gear will be able to extend our services to the machinery, mining, energy, oil and gas, and prototyping industries. The new Kapp Niles will allow True Gear to manufacture AGMA class 10, 11, and 12 gears routinely.
Here are some additional features of the Kapp Niles ZP-12:
- Ability to grind internal and external gears up to 1.2m in diameter
- Reduced dressing time thanks to dual dressers
- Worm grinding possible with optional software
True Gear hopes to continually increase our CNC machining capabilities through the acquisition of high-quality machines. Currently, our inventory includes machines from all the top manufacturers, including Mitsubishi, Gleason, Doosan, Kapp Niles, and more.
