Travelling column VMC has dual-pallet indexing
Vertical machining centre with a travelling column design and integrated rotary dual-pallet indexing system provides higher levels of productivity and output and efficient workpiece loading/unloading.
Wide range of CNC machines will suit all tastes
High speed lathes, as well as vertical and horizontal machining centres, to suit all tastes, will be exhibited at Mach 2002 by C Dugard.
The Dugard Eagle 32 is said to require around half the investment to purchase than is normally expected for a machine of its class and quality of build.
It uses a cast iron base and headstock to provide high stability and incorporates a servo-driven counter balanced sliding headstock design carried on high precision linear guideways.
As a result, precise milling and turning can be performed using full C-axis for contouring and integrated milling and drilling operations within the ready to run specification.
The maximum turning diameter is 32mm over a 165mm Z-axis longitudinal travel of the headstock.
The spindle is powered by a 7kW, 6,000rpm motor and up to 18 tool positions are available to maximise flexibility when setting for axial end working and machining radial dimensioned features.
Up to six 12mm shank or as an option five larger 16mm shank tools are carried on an over-the-spindle tool slide.
However, the addition of an axial milling attachment provides five stationary and three driven tool positions available for end working.
The provision of a radial milling attachment driven by 0.5 kW Y-axis motor means that a further four driven tool positions are available for machining external features on a component.
Each of the driven tool positions are fully programmable up to 6,000rpm and the machine is able to perform polygon turning cycles. Request a free brochure from C Dugard ...
