The small powerhouse

No matter if the small VCC or the "big" VCC 50 - each of our machine types provides a variety of solutions on a compact basis. The small space requirement makes the VCC particularly interesting for small and medium-sized companies.

Traverse ranges:

X = 750 mm - 1350 mm
Y = 550 mm -   750 mm
Z = 600 mm -   850 mm

 

Main design

  • Cross slides, travelling columns and spindle head stock are made from high-quality cast iron
  • Extremely rigid, static and dynamically well balanced ground frame construction
  • Casing according to current machinery directives
  • Totally closed working area with no interfering contours
  • Sliding doors that open above the workspace for ideal loading
  • Excellent accessibility for maintenance and service tasks
  • Machine transport in one piece

In addition, the VCC can be flexibly extended. Contact us!

Guideways and drives

  • Hardened precision steel slideways mounted on manually scraped or grinded surfaces
  • Optimal guiding by extremely large guidance ratio and Turcite coatings
  • High rigidity, outstanding long-term precision performance and excellent vibration absorbing capabilities of the guideways
  • Excellent resetting and adjustability of the guideways
  • Alternatively with roller guides
  • Drives and guideways are protected set outside of working area
  • Ball screws in all linear axes

Tool changing system

  • Fixed location coded tool management enables better monitoring for the operator
  • Support of various tool holding systems such as SK, BT, HSK
  • Tool magazine is protected outside of working area
  • Placement of the magazine during machining possible
  • Tool change takes place behind working area cladding: no disturbing contours in the working area during tool change by the gripper or parts

Tilting spindle

The VCC 50 has the option to extend the three main axes with a swivel head with SK 50 tool holding system and / or a vertically or horizontally integrated rotary table.
