What's in the Tool and Cutter Grinder Book Right Now

This page holds 281 used tool and cutter grinders, and every one of them sits under the single CNC Tool & Cutter Grinders category. There is no sub-category split to sort through here. The variety lives in the nameplates instead. Twenty distinct brands are represented. Walter is the largest brand group on this page at 126 listings, ANCA is next at 83, and Rollomatic accounts for 24, which puts those three at 233 of the 281 machines. The remaining 48 listings are spread across 17 other brands. The number that tells you the most about this book is 262 distinct model strings against 281 listings. That is close to one machine per model, so a shop browsing here is looking at individually scoped grinders rather than a rack of the same unit repeated. Machine Tool Exchange buys these direct from the shops that own them. No broker, no listing, no auction.

Walter Helitronic, the Largest Group on This Page

Walter carries 126 of the 281 listings, and the Helitronic name accounts for 70 of them, which makes it the densest single family in the book. A handful more are entered under a variant spelling, so treat 70 as the working figure. The Walter machines with the maker named in the record include the Helitronic Essential, the Helitronic Power 400, the Helitronic Diamond Evolution, the Helitronic 24 HP, the Mini Power 500, the UWS 400, and a B2074-401292R. Helitronic Power, Helitronic 55 ID and Helitronic HMC-400 also appear on the page. A Helitronic Power and a Helitronic Essential share a nameplate and almost nothing else on an offer sheet: different work envelope, different wheel package, different loader. Each one gets scoped on its own rather than priced off the family name. If you are selling a Walter, the full model designation off the data plate is what we need first.

ANCA and Rollomatic Models We See Here

ANCA is the second largest group on this page at 83 listings. FastGrind leads its families at 9, then TX7 at 8 and MX7 at 6, with FX7, MX5, FX5, TGX, TXCELL, TAPX, TAPXCELL and EDG3 at three each, and GX7, RX7, TG and TG4 at two each. The ANCA machines named as such in the record are a TX7 Linear, a TG-7, a TGX 9 and a SYS 16CNC TG4. Rollomatic accounts for 24 listings, and the ones carrying the maker in the record are the 628XS, the 628XI and the 528XW from the 6xx and 5xx series, plus an NP4, with a 620-XS also on the page. On any of these, the model is only the start of the conversation. Wheel spindle count, whether a loader came with the machine, and whether the tool-design software transferred with it will change the offer more than the year on the plate does.

What Moves the Offer on a Used Tool Grinder

Send us the brand, model, year, condition and grinding capacity to start. Number of axes, control type, wheel spindle specs and any installed accessories fill in the rest. Photos help but are not required. What separates a tool and cutter grinder from a lathe or a machining center is that the machine is only worth what the next shop can actually run on it. A grinder that arrives without its wheel packs, its steady rests, its collets or its tool-design license is a different machine than the one on the data plate, no matter how the serial number reads. That is what we ask about first. Jason Puuri weighs the wheel package, the loader and the software against condition himself rather than running a formula, which is why an unusual configuration gets a real answer instead of a category average. Tell us what came with it and what did not.

The Other Names in This Hub, and What Else We Buy

Past Walter, ANCA and Rollomatic, the tail of this page is short and worth reading plainly. Chevalier has 7 listings, Mazak 6, Haas 5, Amada 5, G&L 4, Tos 4, Gleason 3, Makino 3, Okuma 2 and Reishauer 2. Seven more brands carry a single machine each: Toshiba, Georg, Star Cutter Company, Landis Machine Co, Samputensili, Citizen and Fanuc. One listing is one listing, and we are not going to call it a product line. What we buy runs much wider than what is posted here on any given day. Send us Vollmer QXD and VGrind machines, Deckel S-series grinders, a Cincinnati Monoset, K.O. Lee tool and cutter grinders, Darex drill sharpeners, and manual and conventional grinders generally. Not one of those makers is among the 20 brands on this page. End mill grinders, drill point grinders, insert grinders and multi-purpose tool grinders all get quoted too. That has no bearing on whether we will buy yours.

Rigging, Freight, and Grinders That Are Not Running

MTE arranges rigging, crating and freight at no cost to you. Payment happens at pickup, not net-30, and we buy machines in all 50 states. Condition is not a gate: running, idle, or sitting with a spindle problem you have been quoting out for a year. Once we have the model and what came with it, a first number typically comes back in 24 to 48 hours, and the online form gets a reply within one to two business days. Age is not a gate either. Where a build year is recorded on the listings here, they run from 1974 through 2022, so a grinder that has been on your floor for two decades is still in the conversation. Worth saying plainly: MTE is not a broker and not a listing service. You are not paying a commission out of the number and not waiting on someone else's buyer to show up.

Common questions

How much is a used tool and cutter grinder worth?

It depends on CNC versus manual, the model and control, condition, and whether the wheel package and tool-design software are still with the machine. Send those details and we will price it.

Who buys used tool and cutter grinders?

Machine Tool Exchange buys them directly. We are a direct buyer, not a broker or a listing service, so you sell to us rather than waiting on someone else's buyer.

What is a tool and cutter grinder used for?

It manufactures and resharpens cutting tools: end mills, drills, reamers and taps. CNC models produce complex tool geometries automatically, which is why resharpening shops and cutting tool makers run them.

Do you buy manual tool and cutter grinders, or only CNC?

Both. All 281 listings on this page happen to be classified CNC, but we also buy manual and conventional machines, including Deckel S-series and K.O. Lee grinders that do not appear in this grid.

What details do you need to quote my tool grinder?

Brand, model, year, condition and grinding capacity to start, then number of axes, control type, wheel spindle specs and installed accessories. Photos help but they are not required.

Do I pay for rigging, crating, and freight?

No. MTE arranges rigging, crating and freight at no cost to you, and payment happens at pickup rather than on net-30 terms after the machine leaves your floor.

How fast will I get an offer?

A first number typically comes back within 24 to 48 hours once we have your machine details. Submissions through the online form get a reply within one to two business days.

Thinking about selling CNC Tool & Cutter Grinders?

Helitronic at 70 listings is the densest family here, and with 262 distinct models across 281 grinders, almost nothing repeats. That is why the wheel package, the loader and the tool-design software decide the number more than the nameplate does. Send Jason Puuri the model and what came with the machine, and he will scope it himself and send a number.
