5-Axis Machining Centers
August 1, 2018
Takumi USA will debut its new line of 5-axis machining centers, which includes the U600 (XYZ/AC travels: 24.4" x 39.4" x 19.7"/ +30°-110° x 360°) and U800 (XYZ/AC travels: 31.5" x 39.3" x 29.5"/±120° x 360°). Both machines utilize a trunnion style, 2-axis table and the Heidenhain TNC 640 control. The U800 is a high speed gantry machining center over the high torque table (800 mm platter) that features an 80 RPM twin torque motor A-axis and a 100 RPM single torque motor C-axis. The U series by Takumi was developed to achieve high performance for die and mold, aerospace and other high-speed applications that require tighter tolerances.
The U800 will be featured at Takumi USA's booth with a 5-axis simultaneous cutting demonstration of a 20" tall replica of the famous Venus De Milo sculpture. The reproduction will be produced in 4140 steel - showcasing the rigid machine construction, speed and enhanced part surface finish. Programming of the Venus De Milo will be provided in partnership with Cimquest Inc. using Mastercam 5-axis toolpaths.
"We decided on the Venus De Milo sculpture for the demo on the new U800 because the Takumi tagline is The Art of Productivity, which is a rough translation of the word Takumi. And 5-axis illustrates the art of productivity perfectly," said Maggie Smith, Marketing Manager.
Additional booth events include a hybrid manufacturing process demonstration using a Takumi H12 in partnership with 3D Hybrid Solutions; and visitors will also learn how to "make more chips" with the Takumi FANUC H control on the heavy-duty high-torque Takumi V11 machining center in a partnership with Greenleaf Corporation.
