Moving towards perfectly precise machining
If you are visiting the UK AutoSport exhibition you can compare your machining centre accuracy against a range of machine tools that look to perfection in machining.
Micro-machining centre simplifies mould making
The accuracy of a 5-axis micro-machining centre is simplifying the production of injection mould tools used for producing microfluidic devices.
This exceptional precision level combined with the capability and accuracy level of the Kern machines enables users to improve the quality and tolerance levels of milling and drilling operations considerably, said the company.
The table has a torque drive motor and is temperature regulated to +/-0.25 deg C.
It is this temperature regulation that enables such exceptional accuracies to be achieved, said Kern to manufacturingtalk.
Not only does the table demonstrate exceptional 5-axis accuracy levels, it is also robust, rigid and capable of accepting component weights up to 250kg.
Kern added that this load capacity combined with the exceptional precision levels make the Kern machining centre with trunnion table an irresistible combination for any precision machinist.
The spindle of the table can be presented in a number of different designs with the most popular being the System 3R Macro Magnum Chuck or the Erowa Power Chuck.
These integral elements of the spindle are the reasons behind delivering such accuracy levels.
The benefit of the System 3R and Erowa systems is the ability to automatically change the workpiece to a maximum size of 150 by 150 by 100mm.
It is these dimensions that make the Kern machining centres with the new trunnion mounted swivelling and rotating table such a versatile option for all high precision machining needs.
