The price estimate for the Star SU TRU TECH T93XM-A is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/star-su-tru-tech-t93xm-a#price; the request is passed to Star SU or an authorised dealer.
Automatic loading. The grinder itself is the same 3-axis machine with the same travels, 3 hp (2.2 kW) spindle and grinding unit. The T93XM-A adds a 3-pallet system, automation software and simulation tools, and Star Cutter says it increases lights-out capacity by up to 250% over previous models.
Star Cutter states that the system accommodates parts from 3 mm to 25 mm in diameter and up to 250 mm in length. The specification table gives a maximum grind diameter of 1 in (25 mm) and a maximum grind length of 10 in (254 mm), with longer lengths possible with optional staging.
Yes. The pallet load area is isolated from the grinding environment, which allows full access during the grinding cycle, and robotic lockouts are there to keep that access safe. The pallets are modular and described as high-capacity; the maker does not publish a part count per pallet.
The table lists a minimum accuracy of ±0.00005 in (0.0013 mm) and a minimum repeatability of ±0.000025 in (0.0006 mm), the same figures as the manual machine. The workholding is the patented Precision Grinding Unit, which lets parts be reloaded and reground without introducing shank run-out.
