Advantages

Most Precise

A universal electrode wand holds the electrode securely and at the closest possible proximity to the grinding contact point. This produces concentric grinding not available on other grinders that use electrode guides/bushings with loose fit-up and get even looser after use. The Sharp Shooter as no problems with odd sized electrode diameters. Every electrode size is gripped tightly to ensure precision grinding.

 

Safest

The grinding and cutting areas are enclosed and provide a Plexiglas window for viewing. This keeps potentially harmful dust away from the lungs, sparks away from the eyes and fingers free from injury. Safety officers are especially pleased with the design of this equipment.

 

Easiest to Use

Designed so that anyone can easily grind, flat and cut tungsten electrodes with repeatable accuracy. There are no complicated adjustments, special tools requirements, or difficult time consuming setups. The wand allows for one-touch grinding, flatting and cutting.

 

Rugged Tool

This is not a bench grinder with tooling attached as an after thought. It is a purpose built, dedicated machine tool for accurately preparing tungsten electrodes.

 

Optional Vacuum System

Steel work cabinet with quiet, integrated 1 micron vacuum filtration system (HEPA 0.3 micron filter also available). One switch turns on/off the grinder and vacuum. After switching the system off, there are three seconds of additional power provides to the vacuum to clean the system.
