TECHNICAL
The cleaner cut achieved by relief grinding gives a higher standard of after-cut
” appearance, which also reduces the stress on
components because less horsepower is needed to drive the cylinder
spun ground, it has a flatter, larger contact area. Also, it can become coned or tapered which causes more stress and strain on the drive system.
The normal or expected horsepower requirement with a relief ground unit is 0.88hp, therefore a 5-unit machine can require up to 4.5hp (5 x 0.88hp = 4 5hp) to drive the cutting units. A 35hp engine has 30.5hp remaining to drive the rest of the machine system. A 5- gang unit, which has been spun ground only, can require up to 13hp (5 x 2.59hp = 13hp), leaving only 22hp to drive the machine along. So, it is established that relief grinding cutting units saves you money, not only by reducing workshop maintenance and downtime with far fewer grinds, but a reduction in fuel costs and replacement
parts which can often be a hidden saving cost that is easily missed.
A Hunter Grinder is the ultimate all-in-one mower grinder, combining precision spin and relief operations in one machine, although both methods can be used independently if the user desires.
Hunter Grinders’ all-new Jupiter ATI 6000 relief grinder is one machine that can fully relief, or spin and relief grind, returning cylinders and bottom blades back to the manufacturer’s original specification. Other models in the Jupiter, Juno and Amazon ranges give lower cost and alternative options. The ATI 6000 specification is technology
rich. It enables the operator to programme the machine then carry out other work. The time mowers spend in the workshop has a huge impact on turf maintenance operations, especially at the height of the season, so the choice of grinder is a significant one for any organisation. Currently, with an offer of two years interest free credit, the cost savings can fund your project.
