Large 5-Axis Movements Ideal for Aerospace Industry
June 1, 2013
GF AgieCharmilles offers its MIKRON HPM 1350U for the aerospace industry.
The MIKRON HPM 1350U, available with a Siemens or Heidenhain CNC, is designed to provide simultaneous 5-axis machining while also providing dynamic performance and high precision. "By featuring linear motor technology for the rotary axis, the MIKRON HPM 1350U can produce large axis movements with unrestricted access, making it an ideal choice for heavy cutting and precise machining," said a company spokesperson.
Built with a versatile milling tilt head and a 43.42" diameter rotary table, the MIKRON HPM 1350U handles loads up to 3,306.9 lbs with a rotational speed up to 40 RPM. A direct drive high torque motor drives the milling head and the 50 HP spindle features 15,000 RPM with 142,349 ft-lbs (193 Nm) of torque.
Additionally, the milling head is constructed to swivel up to 136° and the swivel axis can be indexed degree by degree. A hydraulic clamping device for the spindle allows boring and machining procedures to be performed from any position.
The MIKRON HPM 1350U can be outfitted with Smart Machining Modules, which use sensors to allow machinists to utilize the Advanced Process System (APS) for monitoring and recording spindle vibrations. Designed to switch between vertical and horizontal multi-axis machining processes in 1.7 seconds, the MIKRON HPM 1350U can accommodate a wide variety of applications, ranging from production type prismatic parts to complex tool and die work, in a single setup. Tool magazine options include 30/46/92-position.
