The 450mm diameter U-axis contour-head has two tool pocket positions on the 130mm travel u-axis slide, suited for small to large diameter turning operations, using the same tool. It can also perform virtually any type of turning operation – spherical or tapered turning, as well as boring, back facing, and single point thread-cutting using standard boring or threading tools.
The high speed spindle, located below the contour-head, is used for milling, drilling, tapping, and other machining center operations.
The high speed boring and turning applications the high speed milling spindle incorporates a CNC controlled differential system, for programming tool changeable contour-heads. During turning operations the tool works just as a lathe, utilizing constant surface speed to obtain optimum tool life and metal removal. The U-axis contour head is locked in place anytime the milling spindle is in use. This ruggedly constructed machine is designed to include an excellent chip disposal system and a fully enclosed guard system.
