Fully Automatic Tuning System

Wintersteiger Shuttle 3C:

State of the art of automation. The shuttle 3C offers full automation and enormous time savings. During the servicing process, the operator is able to do other jobs. Despite its complex functionality and high degree of automation, the machine is very simple and easy to operate.

Self serve. The shuttle 3C automatically feeds up to 6 individual skis. The pre-sorting occurs according to ski length and width. Every ski can be serviced regardless of its top surface. Using the feed system, skis can be fed independently, one or more times, over the grinding unit and at the end of the process, they will be transferred to the final stage for removal.

For all tastes! Flexibility of the shuttle 3C is a key feature. The modular concept of the shuttle 3C extends from the basic disc shuttle 3C to the ultra modern grinding path - requiring only one run through of each ski - of the jet shuttle 3C. The modular machines can be connected for your future needs.

A grind with a bite. The oscillation of the 200 mm wide grindstone greatly increases the edge life and it can be turned off at any time. In order to meet the individual needs for bases and slopes, the surface can be variously structured using a diamond and the computer guided grinding process.

All bases are not equal. In addition to the proven WINTERSTEIGER structures, (linear, crossed and diagonally crossed) the shuttle 3C computer guided grinding process also allows new race-tested structures such as arrow structures, V-structures and wave structures.

A grind with even more bite. The servo-pneumatic and the edge grind make the shuttle 3C into a multi-functional servicing station for alpine and shaped skis. Plastic tips or not, the grinding of the tip area is no longer a problem. With the help of the pressure adjustment on the ski geometry using the servo-pneumatic, an even grind level is provided over the entire ski length, even on strongly curved, shaped skis. This gives an optimum grinding result for all ski models.

A profile with an edge. Through the innovative ceramic-disc procedure, both the side edge as well as the base edge will attain an optimum grind result. This reveals itself in a precise edge geometry, a precise edge angle, and an absolutely smooth edge surface over the entire ski length. All relevant edge combinations are adjustable for skiers and carvers, and they allow you to fulfill various customer wishes. The grind using the self-sharpening ceramic disc wheels gives your customers pleasure in carving and skiing, and security even on hard and icy slopes. In addition, the sharpness of the edges lasts longer.

The ski that rests, rusts! During the edge process, the rust is taken off the edges and tips and tails of the skis, and in the transition to the disc grind, the edges are polished.

Those who wax will get there. With the drying of the ski, the shuttle 3C offers the best conditions for an optimal waxing job. Even when things heat up, the shuttle 3C stays cool and gives the best possible results during hot waxing and structure brushing. The pre-warming of the ski base allows for a better waxing application in order to meet the demands of the highly functional, patented fleece procedure. Changing the wax is made easy through the special outlet device and the holder that collects the debris. With the assistance of a structure brush, the excess wax is removed and the stone ground structure is uncovered.

Shiny views. The proven Scotchbrite disc takes care of a perfect polish. The shuttle 3C completes the first class ski service with the deburring of the edges and the polishing of the base, whereby the unit oscillates between the skis. The ski can then be taken out from the bin that is designed to hold up to 6 ski. einblage, die für 6 Stück konzipiert ist.

An easy touch! The operation of the shuttle 3C occurs through a color monitor with touchscreen technology. Using an easy to understand menu, the operator is led through the program. Touchscreen technology makes the selection of various working parameters quick and easy. A complete servicing operation or individual servicing components can be saved and recalled at any time. The exact reproduction of specific grinds and base structures is also possible. Using the advantages of working data registration, items such as working hours and number of skis are also provided.
