A grinding machine includes a main part and an end case. A driving unit is connected to the end case and includes a first motor which has an output shaft with a groove. A grinding unit is connected to the end case, and cantilevered above the main part. The grinding unit includes a grinding wheel set which has a central axle with a slide. The slide is located in the groove of the output shaft of the first motor. A driving wheel is connected to the central axle. An adjustment device includes a second motor which drives an eccentric unit that has an eccentric axle, and the eccentric axle extends through a bearing which is located in a recess formed to the driving wheel. The driving wheel is driven by the eccentric unit to move the grinding wheel set of the grinding unit left and right.

In a machine and in a method for processing lateral edges of glass plates, plates of stone material, and plates of synthetic material, there is a group of gripping members of the plate configured to hold a plate in a horizontal position. The plate is caused to advance in a conveying longitudinal direction, in such a way as to bring a lateral edge of the plate to engage in succession an aligned series of grinding tools forming part of a stationary machining unit. In one example, the group of gripping members of the plate is rotatably carried around a vertical axis by a carriage, which is movable in the conveying longitudinal direction and in a transverse direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction. The gripping members are carried by the carriage in such a way as to be adjustable in position, by means of electronically-controlled actuator devices, with respect to the carriage and relative to each other.

The invention relates to a device (10) and a method for processing brake pads (44) fitted on pad holders (46), comprising a conveying device (16) for continuous and automatic movement of brake pads (44) to be processed and at least one processing station (12). The conveying device (16) of a device according to the invention (10) comprises several bearing faces, which are driven in a revolving manner by the conveying device (16), for the arrangement of pad holders (46) of the brake pads (44) to be processed and positioning means revolving with the bearing faces, said positioning means counteracting a rotation of the pad holders (46).

In one aspect, a method of preparing a meat skinner blade is provided which includes: abrading an upper edge of a steel strip to form an angularly-offset two-facet blade edge; and, honing the two-facet blade edge of the steel strip to impart a vertical taper along the two facets of the two-facet blade edge. Advantageously, the subject invention provides a blade for meat skinning, de-membraning, and derinding having, in use, a downwardly-turned edge with vertical tapering. This provides for a robust design capable for more cuts, and, thus, longer use life, than standard meat skinner blades.

The edge sanding device may be a tool for sanding an edge of a workpiece. The workpiece may be moved through a cabinet from an infeed to an outfeed by a conveyance. The workpiece may pass one or more edge sanding stations as the workpiece moves through the cabinet. As the workpiece passes an individual edge sanding station selected from the one or more edge sanding stations, the individual edge sanding station may move an orbital sander from a quiescent position to a sanding position thus pressing a sanding disk of the orbital sander against the edge of the workpiece to sand the edge. In some embodiments, the edge sanding device may further comprise one or more finishing stations to smooth corners of the workpiece.

A machine tool for multiple working for material removal from surfaces of bodies including a working station in which a plurality of rotary tools are positioned around a feed trajectory of said bodies; and guide means in which the bodies to be worked are made to translate one after another along said feed trajectory with a predetermined orientation position. At least one pair of rotary tools of said working station, intended to interact with the surfaces to be worked, inside slits in said bodies, in combination with each other and with guide means provided with partitions, help to keep said bodies in position during their related transit through said working station.

A servo writer includes a writing head that writes a servo signal on a long magnetic tape that is traveling, a guide roller that is provided on an upstream side of a travel path with respect to the writing head and guides the traveling magnetic tape, and a polishing unit that is provided on an upstream side of the travel path with respect to the guide roller and polishes at least one edge of the traveling magnetic tape, in which the guide roller includes a flange that regulates the travel of the magnetic tape.

An edge processing device includes: conveying means that convey a molded powder compact, a first rotating tool disposed on one side and a second rotating tool disposed on the other side and rotating in a direction identical to a direction the first rotating tool rotates. The first rotating tool contacts from an upstream side with a first corner portion between one side surface of a processing target portion of the molded powder compact and a rear surface of the processing target portion. The second rotating tool contacts from a downstream side with a second corner portion between the other side surface of the processing target portion and a front surface of the processing target portion. The second rotating tool faces the first rotating tool with the conveying path therebetween, and is positionally displaced to the downstream side with respect to the first rotating tool.

The invention relates to a tool for machining an object, which tool has a multiplicity of fingers arranged in layers, wherein the fingers are spaced apart from one another within the layers.
