Increased Productivity in Complex Complete Machining
Published on : Wednesday 12-02-2020
More clearance, more power, more possibilities – the powerful Hyperturn 65 Powermill is the ideal complement for your machine pool.
The Hyperturn series has been designed to achieve further productivity increases in series production. Complex and sophisticated turning, drilling, milling and gear cutting operations can be carried out in only one work process; there is no need for re-clamping or temporary storage. The workpiece precision has been enormously improved, whereas it is possible to reduce the overall production times, the space requirements, the tooling expenses and the personnel costs to a significant extent.
In contrast to comparable models, the Hyperturn 65 Powermill features a spindle distance of 1400 mm, which results in significantly more space for simultaneous machining on the main and counter spindle. With 29 kW and 250 Nm on the main and counter spindle, the machine has enough power to machine one workpiece simultaneously with two tools. This so-called “4-axis machining” is another advantage when it comes to increased productivity. Another “top performer” is the milling spindle. With 22 kW, 60 Nm and 12000 rpm, it stands for high productivity in the complete machining of complex workpieces. Thanks to its directly driven B-axis, the Hyperturn 65 PM achieves high dynamics and contour accuracy in simultaneous 5-axis machining. The non-productive times related to tool changes are reduced as well. Thanks to the additional Y-axis on the lower turret, it is possible to perform comprehensive milling operations in parallel with the milling spindle's machining operations.
The 40-, 80- or 120-station tool magazines with HSK-T63 offer more options for complex complete machining with low set-up requirements in the manufacture of individual parts and high stability in turning and milling operations. The integrated tool magazine does not need to be disassembled for transport purposes, which results in shorter commissioning times and reduced transport costs. The frontal arrangement simplifies the set-up process and ensures ergonomic working conditions.
A new generation of tool turrets with BMT interface and direct drive offer increased stability and precision. The performance data, which are similar to those of a milling machine, allow for the complete machining of turned and milled parts.
With automatic bar machining and/or piece goods loading using a robot solution or an EMCO gantry loader, the potentials for increased efficiency in automation can be exploited very well.
screen and EMCONNECT
A machine tool's performance is not only determined by its mechanical and electrical performance values. In this regard, both the control technology and the software are becoming increasingly important as well. That is why EMCO equips the Hyperturn with the Sinumerik 840D sl control by Siemens. The new user interface allows for intuitive and thus significantly easier machine programming.
EMConnect, the new assistant for control and production processes, is included in the machine's standard equipment. EMConnect is a digital process assistant for the comprehensive integration of customer- and system-specific applications for controlling the machine and the production flow. As the operating sequences focus on the user and their requirements, it is possible to create more efficient work processes without losing sight of the machines' outstanding reliability in all operating modes.
When it comes to achieving increased productivity, it is crucial to utilise the machine to the maximum extent possible. With EMCO's CPS Pilot, customers save time and money on their machining projects, because they can use this software to plan, programme, simulate and optimise the production process with a 3-D picture of the machine displayed on their PC. By combining the Hyperturn with the new EMCO CPS Pilot, it is possible to create extremely positive multiplier effects: the perfect interplay between CPS Pilot and Hyperturn results in significantly reduced costs and efforts.
The Hyperturn 65 Powermill is particularly interesting for the serial production of workpieces, e.g., in the automotive, aircraft and engineering industries or the area of fastening technology.
A new machine design reinforces the EMCO brand: The repositioning of the brand – which is also reflected in the claim and commitment “beyond standard” – is now also being implemented in the machine design. As central brand ambassadors, the machines now feature a new look, a look that constitutes a functional and visual upgrade. This upgrade is reflected in a variety of design changes: In order to ensure efficient processes, user-friendliness and a clear arrangement, the machines' main interaction areas (such as the work area) have been highlighted in both colour and shape. The operating panel comes with homogeneous aluminium surfaces, ergonomically adjustable controls and an intuitive user interface. The housing features a reduced and precise design. Clean contours and precise joint patterns convey superior product quality. The recognition value of the technically sophisticated and ergonomic machines is fully guaranteed by the new design of the EMCO product family.
