Travelling column machining centre VCC
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.
Main design
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
- Total access to working area when doors are fully open
- Excellent accessibility for maintenance and service tasks
- Machine transport in one piece
In addition, the VCC can be flexibly extended, for example:
- Through spindle coolant with filter system
- Chip conveyor in slat-band belt, scraper belt or magnetic belt versions
- Controllers either from Heidenhain or Siemens
- Rotary tables horizontally or vertically integrated, in 1 or 2 axes, combined with tailstocks, counterbearings or a further rotary table in gantry mode for clamping bridges.
- Automatic doors
- Clamping systems - hydraulic, pneumatic, magnetic or manual
- Touch probes and tool touch probe systems
- Active power monitoring, collision monitoring and complete process monitoring
- Tool identification systems
- Laser breakage control with tool measurement
- Remote maintenance
Guideways and drives
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
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
