Compact five-axis VMC offers high capacity
For the high speed machining of turbine blades and mould and die parts, Pollard Mori Seiki is offering an extremely rigid and compact, simultaneous five-axis vertical machining centre.
System proves more versatile than pallet shuttles
With experience of radial and shuttle layouts, Plenty was seeking a more compact and versatile system. A Fastems DMC-MD medium duty pallet handling installation provided the answer.
Mori Seiki will present a full programme from six-sided complete machining, 5-axis milling to high-end automation systems in milling and turning.
* NMV8000DCG 5-axis vertical machining centre will become a machining range - the NMV5000 DCG for 5-axis machining has 'DCG' technology, highly dynamic direct drives and latest MAPPS III dialog controls including interface checking function.
There is now an enlarged version of this vertical machining centre - the NMV8000 DCG.

Compact CNC chuckers offer plenty of power
Pollard Mori Seiki's extremely compact CL Series of CNC chucking lathes offer superior rigidity to support continuous high speed machining of production components.
Long-bed machining centre is built for speed
A substantial three-way guideway system, which supports the longitudinal travel of a moving column, provides theSVL5020 long-bed VMC with plenty rigidity for the high speed milling.
High speed machining centre reduces downtime
Capable of machining workpieces up to 2000kg the Pollard Mori Seiki SH8000 horizontal machining centre offers faster traverses and tool-changing times and shorter pallet changeover cycles.
The machine has an identical concept to the NMV5000 DCG with 'Box-in-Box' construction, zero overhang and with DCG technology.
The NMV8000 DCG is also equipped with direct drives at the B- and C-axes and has a rotation range from 340 deg at the B-axis and a very rigid table construction.
An 800mm diameter pallet accepts workpieces up to 600kg.
The machine has 1200mm X-axis, 900mm Y-axis and 610mm Z-axis.
Work pieces with a maximum diameter of 1000mm and 500mm high can be machined.
Customers can also choose between a BT-40 (HSK-A63) and a BT-50 tool set-up.
* NMH10000DCG 5-axis horizontal machining centre - the introduction of Mori Seiki's DCG technology with a total of three direct drives at the A- and B-axis enables the NMH10000 DCG to perform 5-axis machining.
Two direct drive motors have been integrated on the rotation table (A-axis) with a rotation range of 150 deg (B-axis is 360 deg).
The B-axis functions through a direct drive, so that the 1000 x 1000mm palette, which can be rigidly loaded with up to 2500kg, can be quickly and precisely indexed.
Through the Box-in-Box construction with DCG Technology and that the 5-axis table only moves in the Z-axis makes for a very compact machine tool.
The NMH10000 DCG is approximately 3400mm width (without tool magazine) and this construction concept offers excellent accuracy.
Work pieces with a diameter of 1500mm and 1300mm high can be machined.
* NZ mill-turn centres - with these machines up to three turrets and the Y-axis structure can be installed and a built-in motor turret (BMTTM) is used for all turrets.
In the turret 2 Y-axis it is equipped with the original Octagonal Ram Construction, which is not only extremely rigid, said Mori Seiki, but the special construction ensures excellent chip disposal.
The construction of these machines with regards to rigidity and dynamics, provide further advantages.
The NZ Series is a powerful package which has performance improving abilities, such as volume production machining of bar material.
At EMO, Mori Seiki will show the NZ2000 T3Y3 (exhibited at the BIMU exhibition 2006) which has an 8in solid chuck.
The company will intoroduce the NZ1500 T3Y3 with a standard chuck of 6in.
Customers can choose from the two models from having two turrets without Y-axis up to three turrets with Y-axis, - making 10 model variations.
* Sales succes - Mori Seiki had increased its turnover at the end of fiscal year 2006/07 by 18.5% to 172.3 billion Yen (approximately EU 1,141 million).
Europe made a significant contribution to this result with a turnover share of 27% in comparison to fiscal year 2005/06 at 23%.
The company's operating profit has also significantly increased by 53.5% to 23.043 billion yen (approxmately EUR 165.9 million).
The net profit resulted to 16.194 billion yen (approximately EUR 107.2 million).
