Tilting-trunion VMC


For complex aircraft, medical, and moldmaking applications in the nominal 450-mm prismatic- cube range, C 600 U VMCs sport trunion-type tilting tables equipped with NC-rotary tables for full, simultaneous five-axis machining. Adding four-sided clamping yokes accommodating multiple parts per side let shops increase production by doing multiple operations in single setups. Machine axes measure 600, 450, and 450 mm in X, Y, and Z, respectively. Standard spindle rpm speed is 10,000 with 16,000 and 40,000 rpm optional. Five-axis rotary tables hold up to 200 kg w i t h 5 0 k g / side on the NC clamping y o k e s , a n d the three-axis configuration handles up to 1,000 kg. With storage for up to 73 tools, the machines perform chip-to-chip changes in 5.5 sec.
