The WALTER HELITRONIC MICRO is for fast & precise micro tool manufacturing.

The Helitronic Micro combines a radically new design with linear motors to create the optimum solution for grinding micro tools. 

Whether your industry is medical technology, electronics, the automotive or aerospace industry: There's no end to the innovative power of microtechnology. That's why WALTER designed the Helitronic Micro. It expands the product range for the production and regrinding of micro tool diameters. The Helitronic Micro enables the production of tools with a diameter of 0.1 mm to 12.7 mm and regrinding of tools with a diameter of 2.5 mm to 12.7 mm.

Benefits:

• 30% faster than ball-screw machines 
• 50% better surface finishes & best accuracy 
• Tools 0.004-0.50" (0.1-12.7 mm) in diameter  
• Regrinds 0.1" and up (2.5 mm+)
• Easy setup on the machine or an office PC so machine stays productive
• Linear/Direct drives in all axis with incredible accuracy, acceleration & speed (up to 2,000 IPM)  
• Automatic shank steadyrest
• X2 axis automatically moves tool to center during grind for better accuracy on corner radii and ballnose forms on the tiniest tools
• Tilting B-axis automatically positions the wheel to swing radial clearances with the same point on the wheel during the grind
• Helitronic Tool Studio software combines ease of use with infinite flexibility 
• Super-reliable Fanuc 310i control
• Integrated Fanuc robot for fast changes of up to 1,500 tools
• Vibration dampening, temperature stable, 13,500 lb mineral casting
