AutoStick: In-process wheel conditioning system

The AutoStick is the automatic wheel-conditioning system for ANCA's tool grinders. Automatic wheel conditioning improves the life and grinding performance of resin bond grinding wheels. When continually grinding, wheels become glazed or loaded. The sticking process exposes the wheel grit and removes chips (swarf) embedded in the wheel so the wheel cuts better.
