VF-6TR trunnion machine boast 5-axis capability

The VF-6TR trunnion machine allows full five-axis machining of complex multi-sided parts in a single set-up. Based on the VF-6 (1626 by 813 by 762 mm - x,y,z) vertical machining centre platform, the VF-6TR features a dual-axis trunnion table (in place of the standard T-slot table) which provides full five-axis simultaneous motion or can be used to position a workpiece to almost any angle for machining. The trunnion features travels of ±120 degrees of tilt on the a-axis and a full 360 degrees of continuous rotation on the b-axis. It accommodates parts with a swing up to 785 mm and has a 225kg part capacity. The trunnion's 310 mm platter features six precision T-slots equally spaced at 60 degrees for easy fixturing. Available in both BT-40 and BT-50 taper configurations, the VF-6TR comes standard with a side-mount tool changer, automatic chip auger, programmable coolant nozzle, Quick Code programming system, floppy disk drive, 1 MB of program memory and remote jog handle. Such high-productivity options as high-speed spindles, linear scales, high-speed machining with full look-ahead and several probe systems are also available.
