Flexible machining system is
user-friendly
A simple, user-friendly machining cell has five machining modules mounted on the same frame, which combines the high productivity of parts within a 300mm3 cube with excellent flexibility.
The Vertiflex 300 machine is a simple and user friendly Flexible Machining Cell, suitable for the production of medium volume parts which can fit into a 300mm cube with minimum set-up times and reduced cost per piece The machine is the result of the combination of more machining modules, horizontal (up to five) and vertical (up to three), mounted on a single frame; parts with five and more faces and of any shape or material are machined completely in one chucking to assure high quality finished products

Flexible production cell has 5-axis machining
A flexible production cell with two independent single-spindle/twin-spindle machining centers and a four-position pallet changer, has been up-graded with a 5-axis version with faster tool change.
Modules make up flexible machining centres
A wide variety of spindle heads, tool magazines and pallet handling systems can be chosen from to form highly efficient and flexible machining cells with much reduced work pallet changing times.
Vertiflex is a reliable machine, manufactured in more than 100 pieces, installed all over the word.
Vertiflex 300 modular design allows for the investment flexibility; it offers the users the possibility to start with a basic configuration of three machining modules and expand at a later time with production growth.
Vertiflex 300's major features are as follows.
* Machining modules equipped with 7,5kW electro-spindles running at 6.000 rev/min, with linear roller guides on X and Y axes to grant high rapid speed, with optimum rigidity and precision.
* CNC rotary table for maximum reliability and minimum indexing time.
Independent CNC satellite worktables, available with indexing of 360 or 360,000 positions.
* Automatic tool change with CNC operated six-spindle turret head with 1s chip-to-chip time.
* Hermetically enclosed work-area that allows for use of a large quantity of coolant, reduces noise level, avoids pollution of outside environment.
* Compact construction minimizing floor space requirement, without special foundations.
* Ergonomic loading/unloading station with automatic door.
