Cost-competitive 3-axis mill

EmcoMill E 600 is promising result of a successful cooperative effort between EMCO and its Italian subsidiary FAMUP. The development is heralded as a new machine generation for standard 3-axes machined parts production which delivers on the Emco claim to provide European top quality at an enormously moderate price - €49,990.

Axis travelos are 600, 500 and 500 mm in X Y and Z.

Spindle variants available -
* 10,000 rpm with direct drive (SIEMENS control)
* 8,000 rpm with direct drive (FANUC control)
* 12,000 rpm with direct drive as a variant for internal coolant supply
* 15,000 rpm as motor spindle version

Tool magazine - in the basic version the tool magazine (drum magazine) contains 20 tools. Upon request the drum magazine can be expanded to 30 tools.

Control options - Siemens 810D or Fanuc 0i.

Chip removal - the standard design consists of a chip tray with simple lateral chip removal. For automatic chip removal a chip conveyor can be integrated as a module into the machine structure.

Coolant supply - The coolant supply is carried out via lateral nozzles at the spindle nose. As an option, an internal high-pressure coolant supply through the spindle and tool may be chosen.

Round table / 4th axis - for 4-axes applications a robust round table with a diameter of 200 mm, resolution up to 0.001° and NC interpolation is available.

General options - measuring sensor for tool or workpiece measurement; hand wheel; band filter; cleaning nozzle; alarm lamp; blow-out device; chip flushing; automatic door system.
