Grinds lathe and milling cutters
Sharpens drills
Grinds radiuses
The Acto grinds the end cutting face and also the side helix of end and slot mills.
Grinds radiuses on all manner of cutting tools, from simple lathe tools to the more complex tooling jigs and form tools.
Sharpens drills up to 25 mm (straight shank) or 23 mm (2MT).
Also sharpens slitting saws up to 200 mm diameter, side and face cutters, plus a huge range of general workshop equipment.
Unlike many engineering drawings which complexity requires hours of pouring over detailed data, the plans for the Acto are probably the most user friendly you will ever come across. They are simple and easy to understand with every single component drawn separately and then redrawn as an assembly with either one or up to six views.
Plus, the Acto, with its unique design, solves many of the problems associated with using your existing workshop grinder as a grinding head.
As with all our designs from “MACHINERY PLANS”, the Acto tool and cutter grinder plans are complete working drawings which include over 45 photos of various components, many assemblies and all attachments. Also there are over 140 pages of individual drawings, 16 pages of detailed machining, assembly and operating instructions, which makes the building of the Acto easy for the novice or competent machinist alike.
