Arobotech Grinding AUTO REST® Steady Rest:
From single piece prototype work to full mass production, Arobotech Systems Grinding AUTO REST® Steady Rest is a high precision, low maintenance solution to your centering needs. Improved part roundness, diameter tolerance, cylindricity and concentricity have never been so easy to achieve.

O.D. Grinding

Fixed Operation
	A fixed operation Grinding AUTO REST® is used to center one area of a part while another is being ground.

Follow-Down

	A follow down Grinding AUTO REST® is used to support a diameter as it is being ground. The follow down feature takes advantage of the Grinding AUTO REST® unique self-centering function to continually support and center the part as the clamp diameter size is diminished. Precise centering is maintained even with the reduction of part diameter during the grinding cycle.
Traverse & Plunge Grinding
	The Grinding AUTO REST® is the complete solution for O.D. Grinding. Whether plunge grinding a bearing/journal diameter or traverse grinding a long cylindrical workpiece, the Grinding AUTO REST® offers unmatched flexibility and performance.

I.D. Grinding

Grinding AUTO REST® support for I.D. grinding guarantees improved results in bore diameter tolerance, I.D./O.D. concentricity, roundness and cylindricity of the bore. Many I.D. grinding applications are combined with O.D. grinding to increase efficiency.

Cam Lobe Grinding

Grinding AUTO REST® precisely centers bearing journals as cam lobes are ground. Arobotech's unique self-centering function allows multiple Grinding AUTO REST® Steady Rests to accurately center the part while automatically compensating for any deviation of the bearing journal diameters.

Crankshaft Grinding

Grinding AUTO REST® is the ideal support when grinding crankshaft main bearings, post ends, flange ends, thrust walls and crank pins (both orbital crank pin grinding and traditional offset grinding).

Contour Grinding

Grinding AUTO REST® has a unique follow down feature allows precise centering of contoured parts as they are drawn through the workrest.

Tool Grinding

The design flexibility of Grinding AUTO REST® has lead to great success in a wide variety of tool grinding applications.

Thread Grinding

Grinding ball screw O.D. and threads can be particularly difficult. Grinding AUTO REST® and our unique adjustable mounting allow for the highest possible quality of grind without sacrificing cycle time.
