The ‘Maxima’ range of Multi-Slide lathes has 2 machine bed sizes and 2 spindle capacities. The machines have a 3 axis upper slide with the provision for 6 tools of which 3 can be driven. All machines have an 8 station turret slide. The larger 42mm machine also has 2 axes on the turret slide and movement in Z-axis on the 2nd operation to enable simultaneous 2nd op and main op. On the smaller 36mm machine there is an additional single position heavy duty 2 axis slide. All of the machines can be fitted with turret power tooling to 4 stations pick-off unit allowing secondary operations. Cross drilling/milling units can be fitted to all machines. The machines are supplied with either an Interactive Touch Screen PC Control or Multi-Axis ISO Fagor 8070 Control; both systems allowing simultaneous machining with up to3 tools. The machines are complete with parts catcher, coolant tank and swarf conveyor.
Equipment
8 stations turret: driven tool option for: Drilled differential and accelerated, synchronous pickoff unit, saw slotting, Pickoff and 2 position 2nd operation machining.
3 axis upper slide: 6 tool capacity allows for Y and Z axis milling.
MAXIMA 4 axes: simultaneous machining of main operation and 2nd operation
MAXIMA 6 axes: The lower slide (optional) enables extra turning facility for simultaneous main operation and 2nd operation machining.
Interactive Touch Screen PC or Multi-Axis ISO FAGOR Control 8070 CNC. It allows the operator to easily create component programs. The processing speed of the control enables the machine to produce the components with fast cycle times.
Applications
This lathe has been designed for the production of small pieces with high number of operations that demand a great production and high precision.
