Achieving both high productivity and high-quality machining through process-intensive machining

POINT 01
The number of setups and workpiece transportations between processes are reduced through process-intensive machining
  • A sub-spindle is used to complete processes 1 and 2 on one machine.
  • The number of setups and workpiece transportations between processes are minimized to reduce labor and chucking errors.

POINT 02
Achieving high accuracy and high-quality machining
  • The high-accuracy C axis enables highly accurate indexing for both the main and sub spindles.
  • High-quality machining is achieved through high-speed contouring with Hyper-Surface II.
    There is no need to modify CAM machining data.
    Ridgelines and uneven surface edges are reduced to improve the machined quality and shorten hand-polishing time.
  • Automatically compensates for fluctuations in the machining data and positioning errors at edges and between adjacent cutter paths, while maintaining the required shape accuracy
  • Vibration is suppressed without slowing down at corners, shortening the machining time and improving surface quality

POINT 03
The Thermo-Friendly Concept enables outstanding dimensional accuracy
  • High accuracy is achieved even on a multitasking machine that has complex axis configurations.
  • Thermal deformation over time less than 10 μm (actual data)
High dimensional stability
