Long travelling column machine has linear motors
A longer travelling column, vertical machining centre equipped with linear motor drives is ideal for machining aerospace components and larger dies and moulding tools.
The Super Velocity Centre (SVC) 2000L travelling column, longer vertical machining centre is now equipped with linear drives. Recognising that larger production machining centres benefit from the speed and maintained accuracy achievable by linear drive motors, Mazak's new SVC 2000L will complement the existing (shorter) VTC machines but take advantage of linear drive technology for its 3-metre capacity. The new Super Velocity Centre 2000L is a machine ideal for use in the aerospace industry where its 3.4 metre long machining table can accommodate workpieces such as air frame components.
It is also ideally suited to the machining of larger dies and mould tools.
W ith a rapid traverse of 120m/min in the X axis and 50m/min on the Y and Z-axes, the table is capable of accelerating at 0.5G in all axes.
The maximum spindle speed is 12,000 rev/min driven by a 22kW spindle motor.
The higher operational speeds of linear machines have the advantage of reducing both idle and cutting times, giving increased productivity with the fewer number of components in linear drive motors and machine tools, further increasing the overall reliability.
