Wagner spindle and motor spindle repair
Brochexpress is an independent workshop specializing in the repair, maintenance and diagnostics of Wagner spindles and motor spindles. Wagner is a German manufacturer from the Black Forest (Renchen) building surface, cylindrical, profile and double-face grinders.
Wagner, grinders from the Black Forest
TLDR: Maschinen Wagner Werkzeugmaschinen GmbH (Renchen, Germany) builds surface grinders (FSG and SMART series), cylindrical grinders (WCG series) and double-face grinders (FDG 700 CNC), with CNC or cycle controls.
The company, based in Renchen in the Black Forest, presents itself under the motto "Quality from the Black Forest". Its range includes:
- surface grinders with one to three axes, in CNC or grinding-cycle versions
- SMART series profile surface grinders, from 818 to 2480, with two or three CNC axes, for grinding lengths of 460 to 2,000 mm
- WCG series cylindrical grinders (swing diameter 250 to 450 mm, grinding lengths 600 to 2,000 mm, optional Fanuc control)
- an FDG 700 CNC double-face grinder for milling cutters, drills and reamers
Applications cited for profile grinding include automotive, aerospace, medical technology and energy. Older machines are also found under the YAM-Wagner name (for example a 1988 GU 27-60).
Wheel spindles from 1.5 to 7.5 kW
TLDR: On Wagner grinders, the wheel spindle delivers 1.5 to 7.5 kW depending on the model. Spindles on SMART profile grinders run from 1,000 to 7,000 rpm.
For example, the FSG 3A-818 is listed with a 1.5 kW wheel spindle at 2,850 rpm and a 203 × 12.7 × 31.75 mm wheel. The FSG 3A-1224 goes up to 3.7 kW at 1,450 rpm, with a 355 × 50 × 127 mm wheel. The manufacturer states that the Wagner spindle is of sleeve design.
On WCG cylindrical grinders, the stated power ranges from 3.7 kW (WCG NC 2550 and CNC 2550, with an 80 mm spindle) to 5.5 – 7.5 kW on the WCG NC 3260 to 50200 series (wheels of 320 to 500 mm). These ratings are given for the main spindle, and it is not certain that this is the only wheel spindle. Bearings and lubrication are not specified: we confirm them in our quote.
