Double operation mode
Work system that allows reducing machine downtimes to a minimum during the loading and unloading of the workpieces. The machine safely manages the division of the work area into two independent zones and allows loading, unloading and adjustment operations to be carried out in one area while profile machining proceeds in the other, even with different programs between the two work zones. The dynamic models also have a vice positioning system independent of the X-axis carriage. This solution also allows vices positioning to be carried out in concurrent operation time, completely eliminating set-up, adjustment, loading and unloading times.
Vice automatic positioning
The machine software can calculate the correct positioning measure for each vice unit, according to the length of the workpiece and to the type of machining to be performed. The automatic vice positioner on the gantry positions each vice unit with maximum precision, avoiding manual operations and risks of collision during machining. This system operates in complete safety and makes the machine easy to use even by less experienced operators.
Tool magazine
The tool magazine is large and quick and is installed directly on the machine's carriage. Its lateral position, together with an exclusive housing, guarantees maximum protection of the toolholder cones from swarfs and accidental knocks. The magazine has 12 tool positions, including one suitable to accommodate a 300-mm diameter blade, which can be configured at the operator's discretion. In each position of the magazine, a sensor detects the correct positioning of the toolholder, ensuring efficient and safe tool change operations.
Spindle
The 8.5 kW electrospindle with HSK63F toolholder is able to perform even heavy-duty machining with excellent, rapid and accurate results. The electrospindle movement along A axis performs 0° to 180° rotation, allowing to work on 3 sides of the profile with no need to reposition it. A 11 kW electrospindle with encoder for rigid tapping is available as optional.
Blade angle machining head
The tool magazine on the carriage can accommodate 2 angle machining heads. By means of the angle machining head with 2 90°-outlets, it is also possible to perform machining operations on the bar ends. The angle machining head with 300-mm blade allows cutting and separation of the workpiece, giving this 4-axis centre the potential of a top-class 5-axis machine.
Vices
Well-dimensioned vice unit capable of guaranteeing correct clamping of profiles, even of large dimensions, in aluminium, steel, PVC and light alloys. It is possible to mount specific counterblocks for adaptation to profiles of special shapes making the machine extremely versatile. The vice unit is available optionally in double hold-down device version to machine two profiles in parallel.
