Fagor Automation Corporation will be displaying the all-new high-performance 8065 CNC at MFG4 2012.

Designed specifically with the aerospace market in mind, the Fagor 8065 CNC is equipped with proprietary features necessary for high speed machining while also designed to maintain the best machining surface finish and accuracy, the company said.

Each 8065 is offered with a 10 or 15-inch high-resolution LCD TFT color or touch-screen, Ethernet, USB and built-in touch sensitive mouse pad. The 8065 can control up to 28 axes and four separate spindles with four different execution channels and includes auto-tuning system set-up capability. In addition, the 8065 ability includes block processing speeds of <0.5 ms while analyzing the tool path with advanced high-speed block look ahead utilizing nano-metric resolution. It also features the Fagor Adaptive Real-time Feed & Speed control (ARFS), which analyzes the machining conditions such as spindle load, servo power, tool tip temperature and adapts both the axis feedrate and the spindle speed. The result is a reduction of cycle time coupled with a quality part finish, according to Fagor. Extended spindle and servo motor life can also be accomplished as well as improved tool utilization.

Equipped with the aerospace specific High Speed Surface Accuracy (HSSA) machining system, the 8065 CNC is designed to achieve reduced mechanical stress on the machine, thus increased machine tool lifespan. The onboard Bode diagram tool allows the measurement of the machines frequency response, thus allowing the possibility to actually filter the machine vibrations incurred by the various operating conditions and environment. CAD/CAM generated programs used to design parts commonplace in the aerospace market are large and require a specific CNC system treatment in order to obtain the maximum speed with the desired precision. The solution implemented by the 8065 CNC system to process CAD/CAM generated programs consists of the combination of splines and polynomial transitions as well as the interpretation of the NURB format utilized by CAD/CAM programs. This process is designed to help achieve high feedrate machining while maintaining the accuracy required by all geometries to be machined, thus decreasing cycle execution time, the company said.
