Heidenhain TNC systems on display at MACH 2010

  • Heidenhain TNC systems on display at MACH 2010
At MACH 2010, stand 5110, Heidenhain (GB) will focus on the company's iTNC/TNC range of systems, that are used widely in milling machines and machining centre applications (both as OEM items and for retrofit), as well as, drilling and boring machines.

The high-end, up to 13 axes, iTNC 530 CNC analogue/digital system lends itself to the production of highly accurate contours at high velocity, with a block processing time of 0.5 milliseconds. The iTNC 530 hardware option features Windows XP as a user interface, enabling the use of standard Windows applications.

The TNC 620, is a versatile contouring control for multi-axis work. Workshop-orientated and using Heidenhain's conversational programming routines, the TNC 620 is suitable for either one-off or volume production routines.

For milling machines, the TNC 620 control offers free contour programming, cycles for complex contours and fast presetting, with Heidenhain touch probes. For drilling and boring machines, the system incorporates cycles for drilling, boring and spindle alignment, as well as, for linear and circular point patterns.

The TNC 320 is an entry-level analogue system, ideal for retrofit applications and designed for milling, drilling and boring routines. It has a TFT 15 inch colour monitor that presents a clear overview of all relevant information for programming and operating.

The ManualPlus 620, is a CNC that features application-orientated cycle programming to enable operators to create and edit programs rapidly and efficiently on-screen. The system incorporates SmartTurn technology, eliminating G or M code and block functions, as the system utilises form and graphics-supported programming, for complex workpieces.
