The DS900/300C machining center features two machining systems:
The 900mm diameter U-axis contour-head has two tool pocket positions on the 300mm 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. For 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.
