Walter spindle and motor spindle repair
Brochexpress is an independent workshop specialising in the repair, maintenance and diagnostics of Walter (Walter Maschinenbau GmbH) spindles and motor spindles — the German manufacturer from Tübingen, a benchmark in tool grinding, eroding and measuring, a member of the United Grinding group.
Walter, the German builder of tool grinders and measuring machines
TLDR: Walter Maschinenbau GmbH (Tübingen, Germany, United Grinding group) develops CNC machines for tool grinding, eroding and laser processing, with the Helitronic range recognised for its integrated high-precision inspection systems.
Walter Maschinenbau GmbH, headquartered in Tübingen, Germany, develops CNC machines for tool grinding, eroding and laser processing, and is a member of the United Grinding group alongside Studer, Schaudt, Mikrosa, Mägerle, Blohm, Jung and Ewag. The Helitronic Vision range is fitted with a Laser Contour Check system that inspects the tool surface during grinding and automatically adjusts the grinding parameters where necessary, an innovation that sets Walter apart in its market.
A range of motor spindles with integrated laser inspection for precision grinding
TLDR: Walter grinders use a motor spindle driving the wheel at high speed, working with a Laser Contour Check inspection system that continuously measures cutting parameters (width, thickness, angle) and automatically adjusts the grinding process.
On Walter Helitronic Vision grinders, a motor spindle drives the wheel at high speed for accurate grinding of cutting tools, with a Laser Contour Check system that inspects surface condition and automatically adjusts grinding parameters during the process. This integration of optical inspection directly tied to spindle control allows real-time correction, guaranteeing consistent quality across batches of identical tools — a major advantage for tool production workshops.
