BASE AND WAGON

Base is built in a single cast iron Meehanite ® with oversized ribs able to withstand the most severe stresses. This is subjected to outdoor stabilization treatment for a minimum period of 6 months, allowing to eliminate the remaining internal tensions; The "slant" type geometry  (including 45°) has been designed to facilitate chips evacuation and the accessibility to the machine by the operator. Base and wagon are designed according to the application of the analysis and design system (FEA). Using this system the computer determines the thickness and dislocation of the internal ribs. On the base are obtained the two upper flat guides for longitudinal movement of the wagon (Z axis) and the two lower ones for the tailstock.

GUIDES

Lathe guides are linear rollers guides of the best steel brands. An efficient automatic, timed forced lubrication system ensures constant lubrication on all contact surfaces. Guides dimensions are such as to make the specific pressure very low even under very heavy loads and stresses of work greatly increasing the speed of the rapid processing.

SPINDLE LINE

It has a monolithic structure in Meehanite cast iron, fastened to the base on the base. The structure itself is "thermally symmetrical" to limit the effects of any temperature ranges that might be generated. An efficient cooling system with external cooling unit keeps the temperature constant. The motion transmission is carried out by belt. A Fanuc α12i (11-15 kW) motor is fitted as standard; an optional Fanuc αP15i (7.5-9 kW) or Fanuc αP22i (11-15 kW) motor can be fitted.

TOOLHOLDER TURRET

The turret has 10 stations on which tools can be mounted in radial and axial position; it is predisposed for coolant exit  outside and inside the tool holders. The positioning and bidirectional rotation of the platter is guaranteed by an extremely fast and reliable Fanuc motor with an indexing time of only 0.2 sec. (tool to tool).

TAILSTOCK

It has a Meehanite ® cast iron structure. The positioning of the body is done manually. The tailstock has a diameter of 75mm and the stroke of the boat is 80mm.

CHIP CONVEYOR

It’s positioned with the drain facing the tailstock, hinged type. Its maintenance and cleaning is extremely simple and fast, extracting it from the front of the machine. The dimensions of the conveyor have been sized for a long life while having to evacuate a large amount of steel chips or other material. The chip pick-up trolley is included also.

REFRIGERATION TOOL UNIT

It is complete with a very large collection tank capable of collecting up to 250L pump and pipes for the refrigeration of tools; supply is brought directly to the turret tool. System is equipped with additional high pressure pumps and systems for the recovery of waste oil in the tank to prevent the pollution of emulsions upon request.

ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT

The system is integrated with machine CNC and is complete with a watertight cabinet. All controls as well as the steering unit are located at the front while the control cabinet is located at the rear of the machine. As an option it is possible to have an effective air conditioning system that ensures that inside the electrical cabinet the operating temperature is controlled and constant to prevent the electronic components used from being damaged especially in the warmer seasons.

AUTOMATIC LUBRIFICATION SYSTEM

It includes the lubrication units, equipped with a timer and a series of dosing units for the automatic lubrication of: sliding guides - ball screws - bearings. An audible warning device warns us if the level has reached the minimum allowed while continuing to lubricate. To ensure that the system is fully functional there are pressure switches that measure circuit pressure that releases the liquid only when set pressure has been reached; if this does not happen due to leakage an alarm arises. The basement structure has been realized for the recovery of most of the waste oil in a special tray placed in the back of the machine.
