The deployment of linear drives in the X and Y axes offers up to 0.5 g acceleration and (optionally) 90 m/min rapid traverse rates. The drives combine with a ram featuring an integrated, direct drive C-axis, as well as a B-axis milling head with direct drive and 50° swivel, to provide a fully interpolative 5-axis machining platform for producing large, complex components. According to DMG Mori, the machine achieves surfaces finishes down to Ra 0.3.
The standard machine version with 4,400 by 2,700 mm table accommodates workpieces weighing up to 10,000 kg, although the maximum load can be trebled on request.
HSK-A63 and HSK-A100 motor spindles, manufactured in-house, are available rated up to 30,000 rpm (or 79 kW or 430 Nm). The SK40-SpeedMaster with 15,000 rpm and 130 Nm is standard. There is space for 30 tools in the chain magazine, although an optional wheel magazine can accommodate 63 tools, extendable up to 183 pockets.
The company deploys its CELOS app-based control and operating interface to a Siemens or Heidenhain CNC system. The control has a 21.5” touchscreen display and 26 CELOS apps to assist in scheduling work and optimising processes. An Industry 4.0-ready interface, which is compatible with ERP systems and can be linked to CADCAM applications, integrates the machine into a customer’s production environment.
