| A clear design concept Setting-Operating housing The realization of a brilliant idea. The operating housing is small, well sealed and can be lifted off easily from the work area. It provides unimpeded, easy access for all maintenance and repair work. Easy crane loading Heavy blisk blanks can be easily loaded with a crane through the large door to the clamping position. Easy access for repairs The cartridge spindle is the most highly used component and must be lubricated to guarantee a long life. Its flange must be removed from the front for repairs. It can be pulled out from the front and easily replaced with the repaired spindle. Its points can be connected from the back. The roller guides and ball-screw spindles are connected to the main lubricant source and, therefore, need little maintenance. Safe access • to the tools • to the servomotors because these are positioned outside the operating area. The unique 20° angled design of the mono-block makes it easier to rinse down the chips and provides an unobstructed view of the workpiece and spindle, for monitoring the work area. |
