AT 200 Flexibility and productivity in con rod machining.

AT 200 Minimum non-productive times. Maximum production. Professional division of work tasks: The division of semi-finish machining and finish machining in the highly specialized machines AT 200 respective AF 400 allows the parallel machining of components. The fixtures can be optimized for the different requirements of semi-finish and finish machining, thus enabling a drastic increase of productivity and precision. In addition, this separation of machining operations provides for a simpler and clearer process sequences.

To be uncompromising means to create a customer-oriented concept leaving the limits of existing technologies behind. As a result, this uncompromising attitude is the foundation of a new, highly specialized and modular generation of con rod machines. High production volume. Consequent flexibility. Individual scalability. Low change-over times. Highest precision.

ROTARY INDEX TABLE ASSEMBLY MACHINE AX 400 The AX 400 for rough machining of con rods. The rotary index table assembly machine for fracture splitting and assembly of con rods. · Productive as a special purpose machine, flexible as a machining center. · Machining of up to 4 con rods simultaneously · Extremely short chip-to-chip time thanks to main time-parallel tool change · Main time-parallel loading and unloading of components · Loading robot integrated in machine control, thereby simple operation without any robot knowledge · Ergonomic loading station for quick and fool-proof tool change, no...

The AT 200 for semi-finish machining of con rods. The AF 400 machine for finish machining of con rods. · Up to 4 fixtures can be mounted simultaneously for short change-over times · Up to 2 turret heads with each 4, 6 or 8 tools · Extremely short chip-to-chip time · No chip problems at the tool interface thanks to the use of the tool turret · High thermal stability · High operator convenience · Very good accessibility for maintenance and tool change · Low space requirement in floor space and height · Very versatile: as variant with Y-stroke 630 mm a highly productive and process-safe alternative...

TURRET BORING HEAD UNCOMPROMISINGLY SPECIALIZED The AT 200 and the AF 400 con rod machines are specialized in semi-finish and finish machining whereby every machine is optimally designed for the corresponding requirements. Highly precise sub-assemblies are only used where required. The division of work tasks to two machines provides for easier and clearer process sequences. PARALLEL MACHINING In a machine concept combining finish and semi-finish machining, the corresponding work steps can not be realized simultaneously at different stations. Therefore the ALFING solution allocates the machining...

UNCOMPROMISINGLY FLEXIBLE The clamping fixture swivels around the A-axis and can be moved linearly in Y-direction. It can be quickly changed over and allows a clamping sequence freely programmable in the NC program. Due to the high flexibility it offers the possibility to quickly, easily and cost-efficiently produce different component types on the machine. Thanks to the clamping tombstone concept, up to 4 different component types can be machined without any change-over. HYDRAULIC ROTARY DISTRIBUTOR The rotary distributor provides 11 possible connection points: 1 x lubrication 5 x clamping /...

UNCOMPROMISINGLY VARIABLE Up to two turret heads can be placed onto the slide moving in X- and Z-direction. Thus, components can be machined parallel, significantly increasing the total output. ANY COMBINATION POSSIBLE Every turret head can receive in all 4, 6 or 8 tools. The choice is between tool clamping systems in three different sizes: HSK 63, HSK 80 and HSK 100. Instead of standard tools, also double spindle heads can be used for bolt hole machining in order to further increase the machine productivity. NO CHIP-IN-SPINDLE RISK The tool turret principle prevents the penetration of a chip...
