ROHM SLZV - self-centering steady rests - Handbuch (Seite 9)

General description
The main characteristic of the (patented) steady rest of
”SLZV” series is that the rest arm can be retracted into the
inside of the body so that the machining range remains free,
thus permitting the feed of the work piece by means of auto-
matic systems.
The compact dimensions as well as the high positioning
and repeating accuracy make this accessory the ideal tool
for grinding work which can be used to support long shafts
and is suitable for support during internal grinding work. The ”SLZV” steady rest has been equipped with a (paten-
ted) system for precision centring.
As a rule, the steady rest is equipped with clamping inserts
made of poly--crystalline diamonds (PCD), however upon
request it can also be supplied with carbide clamping in-
serts (WIDIA).
