With a grinding diameter range of 0.5 to 410 mm and a module range of 0.5 to 10 mm, the RZ 410 covers a broad array of applications. Sharing its technological base with the larger RZ 550 and RZ 1000 models, it delivers the same accuracy and dependability in a compact size. Quick setup times, easy access, and intuitive operation make it a machine designed for dynamic production settings.
Unmatched Performance and Flexibility
At the heart of the RZ 410 is the most powerful workpiece spindle drive in its class, providing superb control accuracy and adaptability for every grinding task. This makes it particularly effective in workshops where frequent part changes are the norm. The machine supports all major grinding and dressing operations, including profile grinding and line dressing. A swiveling dressing axis allows all Reishauer dressing technologies, such as topological dressing and multi-rib full-profile dressing, ensuring precise tooth geometries and surface finishes.
Generation 4.0 – Where Mechanics Meet Digital Intelligence
The latest model, the RZ 410 4.0, enhances these strengths with digital intelligence. Particularly in small and medium-batch production, retrieving setup data from internal or external databases shortens setup times and boosts productivity. process consistency. Powered by the Reishauer Software Platform (RSP) and the Siemens SINUMERIK ONE controller, the RZ 410 4.0 ensures stable, efficient, and future-ready gear grinding operations.
Smart Connectivity and Integration
Connectivity defines the RZ 410 4.0. Equipped with fully digital sensors and IO-Link communication, it enables real-time monitoring and parameter adjustment directly from the control panel. Optional interfaces, such as Gear Data Exchange (GDE) and OPC UA, ensure seamless communication with factory systems, MES environments, and external devices, making the RZ 410 ready for Industry 4.0.
Intuitive Operation and Ergonomics
The RSP software offers a unified, easy-to-navigate interface across all Reishauer machines. Its graphical, input-based process guidance reduces operator training time while maintaining the logical structure familiar to experienced users. The height-adjustable HD touchscreen display consolidates all major functions, providing direct access to multilingual manuals and support — ensuring optimal ergonomics and user confidence.
Optimized Setup and Process Creation
Setting up a grinding process is now easier than ever. The RZ 410 4.0 guides operators through sequences and checks, ensuring that each step is accurately validated before proceeding. Processes can also be created offline using Reishauer RZDesk software and then transferred to the machine later. Existing data can be retrieved or analyzed for troubleshooting, allowing for efficient maintenance consistent and repeatable setups across production shifts.
Digital Services – myReishauer and ARGUS
Reishauer’s digital ecosystem enhances machine transparency, efficiency, and knowledge sharing through two platforms: “myReishauer” and “ARGUS.”
myReishauer is built on three pillars:
1. Monitoring – providing real-time insights into machine and process performance.
2. Service – offering predictive maintenance and maximizing machine availability.
3. Academy – granting access to expert training and maintenance tutorials.
It bridges physical machines with digital applications, empowering users to make data-driven decisions and continually improve performance.
ARGUS is Reishauer’s advanced process monitoring system. It evaluates both dressing and grinding data in real-time using vibration, acceleration, force, and process sensors. ARGUS not only detects deviations before they impact production but also assesses the health of machine components, enabling predictive maintenance planning. Data visualization through intuitive dashboards — accessible directly on the machine or via a web application — provides clear insights into both real-time and historical operations.
Maximum Flexibility: Profile and Generating Grinding
The RZ 410 4.0 offers a wide range of machining options. For prototypes and small batches, profile grinding on the main spindle can handle modules up to 14 mm with minimal changeover time. The optional PSK D20 profile grinding head attaches in less than 20 minutes and allows high-speed CBN grinding of gears with interfering contours.
For generating grinding of complex geometries, a small spindle attachment extends the RZ 410’s range. Operating at speeds of up to 10,930 rpm, it achieves ISO/DIN class 5 accuracy or better, while maintaining the economic advantages of continuous grinding. Setup time is under 45 minutes — making it an ideal solution for high-mix, low-volume manufacturing.
Conclusion – Setting the Benchmark in Gear Grinding
With the RZ 410 4.0, Reishauer again sets the standard for efficiency, digital integration, and flexibility in gear grinding. Whether in job shops, tool rooms, or automated production systems, it provides stable processes, intuitive operation, and unmatched precision. Combining mechanical excellence with digital intelligence, the RZ 410 4.0 represents the next step in Reishauer’s “Circle of Competence” — another benchmark for the future of gear manufacturing.
