Featuring a 40-taper spindle with 1,016 x 635 x 635 mm travels and an integrated dual-axis trunnion table, the UMC-1000 is equipped with a 10,000 rpm inline direct-drive spindle and comes with a servo-driven 50+1 side-mount tool changer.
The UMC’s dual-axis trunnion table positions parts to nearly any angle for five-sided (3+2) machining, or full simultaneous 5-axis motion for contouring and complex machining. Some +35°/-110° of tilt and 360°of rotation is available for tool clearance and large-part capacity. The machine’s 635 mm platter features standard T-slots and a precision pilot bore for fixturing versatility.
Powered by a 22.4 kW vector drive system, the UMC-1000’s direct-drive spindle yields 122 Nm of cutting torque. The inline system couples the spindle directly to the motor to reduce heat, increase power transmission and provide high-quality surface finishes, says the company.
Haas’ WIPS (Wireless Intuitive Probing System) is fitted as standard. Easy on-screen directions guide beginners through the process, while experienced users have access to the full power and capabilities of custom probe routines.
Dynamic work offsets (DWO) and tool centre-point control (TCPC) simplify varying part set-ups, in both 3+2 axis machining and 5-axis simultaneous machining, by allowing users to program the component relative to a work location of their choice, rather than relative to the intersection of the rotary axes. This capability makes it easier for users to set-up the machine, saving valuable time by eliminating multiple visits back to the CAM system to adjust the component location.
In addition to the standard model, Haas is also introducing a ‘Super Speed’ version – the UMC-1000SS – with 30.5 m/min rapids and an integrated high-speed, dual-axis trunnion table. This faster machine is equipped with a 15,000 rpm inline direct-drive spindle. The UMC-1000SS’s high-speed, trunnion table offers 170°/sec feed rates to quickly position parts for five-sided (3+2) machining or full simultaneous 5-axis motion.
Both machines are equipped with through-spindle coolant, benefitting from an auxiliary coolant filter and a programmable coolant nozzle. A heavy-duty, belt-type chip conveyor removes swarf from the machine quickly, and discharges it with minimal coolant carry-out. The conveyor can be activated via M-code, or directly from the control pendant, and there are settings to control the interval and duration of the conveyor cycle for automatic operation. Smart-sensing technology automatically reverses the conveyor if a jam occurs.
The Haas Next Generation Control (NGS) has the ability to send e-mail and SMS text notifications to multiple contacts regarding the operating status of the machine. In addition, 1 GB of memory allows a large number of programs to be stored, eliminating the need for an external device to FNC or DNC the program.
