Turning and automated integration

Proven unattended machining :

for increased profits Complex parts completed in one operation : for increased throughput and cash flow
The new range of BV vertical lathes with integrated automation is the result of EUROTECHs tradition in the manufacture of horizontal CNC-lathes equipped with automatic loading/unloading systems and has been designed to meet customers requirements for cost-effective chuck machining. Thanks to the technology of a vertical moving spindle a simple two-axis lathe can perform both unmanned machining and automatic loading/unloading of parts. The main features of the BV series are: RIGIDITY AND STABILITY: the main mechanical parts, such as machine structure, guideways, ballscrews, spindles and turret are robustly proportioned to deliver high chip removal rate. Available with ASA 6 (BV210) and ASA 8 (BV315) spindle, prepared to accept chuck sizes 8, 10, 12 and the pallet systems to load the parts, the BV vertical lathes can be equipped with live tools, C-axis and Y-axis to carry out complete machining of complex parts.

PRODUCTIVITY: the fast indexing servo turret combined with the high acceleration of axes and spindles enables the reduction of loading/unloading and idle/times (higher performance at reduced idle times). The well proportioned machining area guarantees quick and convenient tooling-up operations and makes chip removal easier. ACCURACY: the thermal stabilization of the main heat sources, of the spindle and turret along with the use of linear scales maximizes accuracy. ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY AND COST-SAVING: the use of guideways lubricated with grease eliminates problems related to the contamination of coolant, thus drastically reducing disposal costs.

: reduction of costs.

Tu r r e t
The sturdy and fast indexing EUROTECH turret (0,1 sec.) is operated by a servo motor. The 3-ring Hirth coupling assures maximum rigidity and the turret casting is cooled to ensure the highest accuracy. In the versions equipped with live tools, all the 12 turret stations are prepared to accept rotary toolholders to carry out milling, boring and tapping operations.

To o l s e t t e r
The tool probing system makes tooling-up operations safe and quick thus avoiding the need to manually input tool offsets.

Structure
The massive rigid cast-iron slant bed has been designed following F .E.M. analysis in order to ensure high rigidity and exceptional thermal stability under any machining conditions.

Integrated automation: low cost

Spindle
The heavy duty EUROTECH integral motor-spindles (double speed ratio), with high torque and power at low range are assembled using the combination of ball and roll bearings duly dimensioned to allow powerful cutting, high accuracy and superior surface finishing.

Nearly 6 of Y-axis travel : turn/mill complex parts in one operation

With the Y-axis the BV vertical lathe becomes a complete turn-mill center accomplishing off-center operations that are impossible to complete with C-axis only. The generous stroke of 5.9 places the BV series at the top of its class. The main performance benefits achievable with a turning center equipped with live tools and Y-axis are: - improved parts accuracy; - reduction of down-time; - reduction of costs; - increased flexibility to counter constantly changing market demand.

The vertical moving spindle performs both machining and automatic loading/unloading of parts. This solution allows a simple two-axis CNC-lathe to become an automatic machine to carry out unmanned machining operations. For loading and unloading of parts, the standard BV configuration comprises a chain with location prisms for blanks and a simple conveyor for finished parts. The loading station is equipped with a sprung platform to compensate any irregularity of the blanks. Air blowers and cleaning devices are provided to eliminate the chips.
