Grind Long Precision Ball Screws in One Setup

The CGK-2000/3000/3000A series is built for finish-grinding the long arc ball screws, trapezoidal screws and special thread profiles used in machine tools and automation.

CGK-2000 / CGK-3000 / CGK-3000A CNC high-precision thread grinder in a ball-screw grinding shop

The CGK-2000 / CGK-3000 / CGK-3000A is a family of CNC high-precision thread grinders developed for the rolling-function-components industry. It finish-grinds arc ball screws, high-precision trapezoidal screws and other thread profiles on workpieces up to Φ500 mm. The moving-table design covers grindable thread lengths of 2000 mm on the CGK-2000 and 3000 mm on the CGK-3000 and CGK-3000A, with between-centers distances from 2200 mm to 3200 mm. An industrial CNC control system with full closed-loop feedback runs single-pass and fully automatic grinding cycles, multi-start threads from 1 to 99 starts, dynamic tool setting, pitch compensation, pitch-taper compensation and automatic wheel-dress compensation. The result is thread geometry held to 0.005 mm within a 2π arc and surface roughness down to Ra 0.32 μm.

Key Features & Working Principle

Six capabilities that make the CGK-2000/3000/3000A a complete long-bed thread-grinding solution.

1️⃣

Three Bed Lengths

CGK-2000, CGK-3000 and CGK-3000A cover 2000 mm and 3000 mm grindable thread lengths for medium and long ball screws.

2️⃣

Moving-Table Design

The worktable moves while the wheel carriage remains fixed, supporting long workpieces without sacrificing rigidity.

3️⃣

Full Closed-Loop CNC Control

Precision linear scale feedback on linear axes and a rotary encoder on the work spindle provide closed-loop positioning and repeatability.

4️⃣

Single-Pass & Automatic Cycles

Select single-pass grinding for setup and proving, or fully automatic cycle grinding for production runs.

5️⃣

Intelligent Compensation

Dynamic tool setting, pitch compensation, pitch-taper compensation and automatic wheel-dress compensation keep size stable.

6️⃣

Rigid Machine Construction

A high-strength alloy cast-iron bed and worktable with precision-scraped guideways support heavy grinding cuts without size drift.

Why Choose the CGK-2000 / CGK-3000 / CGK-3000A

A dedicated long-bed thread grinder delivers the profile accuracy and surface finish that turning or milling cannot reach on hardened screws.

🎯

Micron-Level Thread Accuracy

Profile error within 2π arc is held to 0.005 mm on CGK-2000 and 0.006 mm on CGK-3000/3000A; cumulative error over 300 mm is within 0.008–0.012 mm.

🏆

Mirror Surface Finish

Thread surface roughness reaches Ra≤0.32 μm, giving ball screws and trapezoidal screws the smooth flanks needed for long life and low noise.

⚙️

Wide Pitch Coverage

Metric pitches from 1.5 mm to 48 mm, imperial threads from 2 to 18 TPI and module threads from 1 to 18 cover most long ball and trapezoidal screw specifications.

📐

Large Helix Angle Range

Helix angles up to ±25° on all three models handle steep-lead ball screws and trapezoidal screws.

🛡️

Matched to Part Length

Three bed lengths let you match machine investment to your typical screw length instead of oversizing every machine.

💰

High-Load Capacity

CGK-3000A supports up to Φ500 mm disc-type parts and Φ400 mm with steady rest, making it suitable for heavy ball screws and large trapezoidal screws.

Frequently Asked Questions

What parts can the CGK-2000 / CGK-3000 / CGK-3000A grind?
The machines grind high-precision arc ball screws, planetary screws, trapezoidal screws, worms and other thread profiles on workpieces up to Φ500 mm.
What thread lengths do the three models cover?
CGK-2000 grinds threads up to 2000 mm long with 2200 mm between centers. CGK-3000 and CGK-3000A cover 3000 mm thread length with 3200 mm and 3100 mm between centers respectively.
What pitch and helix range can be ground?
Metric pitches from 1.5 mm to 48 mm, imperial threads from 2 to 18 TPI, and module threads from 1 to 18. Helix angles reach ±25° on all three models.
How is grinding accuracy maintained?
An industrial CNC control system with full closed-loop feedback from precision linear scales and a rotary encoder controls all axes. Pitch, pitch-taper and wheel-dress compensation corrects process variation automatically.
What is the difference between CGK-3000 and CGK-3000A?
CGK-3000A is the heavy-duty variant: it accepts disc-type workpieces up to Φ500 mm and Φ400 mm with steady rest, with a 280 mm center height. CGK-3000 matches the CGK-2000 center height and diameter capacity but adds 1000 mm of thread length.
