Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Aug 7, 2006

Machining centres deliver all the power and speed for fast, high-accuracy manufacture of parts in medium-to-high volumes, offering rapid traverse rates of 48m/min and 5m/s2 acceleration/deceleration.

The APC 700 'HP' machine has an 18.5kW or 22kW 12,000 rev/min spindle.

The APC 700 'HPD' has a faster and more powerful spindle - 22kW or 25kW 15,000 rev/min.

Both machines deliver all the power and speed you need for fast, high-accuracy manufacture of parts in medium-to-high volumes.

The APC 700 machines are fast with rapid traverse rates of 48m/min and 5m/s2 acceleration/ deceleration on X, Y and Z axes.

With 700mm x 500mm x 560mm strokes (X, Y and Z) and a workload capacity of 250kg on each of its (twin) pallets the APC 700 machines are suitable for a diverse range of jobs and machining applications.

To optimise production the machines are equipped with integrated automation.

Both machines have a 30-position ATC (option for 48 or 60-position) with fast 2.9s tool change (chip-to-chip) on the 'HS' model.

To ensure further uninterrupted machining - both machine models have swing-arm, twin-pallet APC capability too.

The machines have a choice of control (GE Fanuc 18i MB or Heidenhain iTNC 530).

Either provides customers with powerful machining capability and high contour accuracy as well as both being simple and easy to operate.

The APC 700 machines are manufactured from heavy-duty cast iron and provide excellent damping, vibration and thermal absorption ensuring, at all times, high-accuracy and finish as well as reduced spindle and tool wear.
