BIAX PNEUMATIC SPINDLES WITH TOOL-CHANGING SYSTEM What our new system offers With the integrated tool-changing system, tool changes can be carried out fully automatically and without downtime. The system can thus be operated for much longer without personnel. This is a great advantage, especially for applications with relatively short tool-change intervals. If a component needs to be machined using different tools, it may be sufficient to stick with a single spindle. However, the automatic replacement of worn tools also offers great economic advantages. In any case, the tool-changing system significantly increases the flexibility of the system. Functionality The system is manufactured to extremely high quality standards and allows tool changes at any position via a coupling. The machine does not need to be rotated to a special position for this. Tool changing is performed using a special changing station, which automatically pushes back the coupling sleeve. The spindle can be used while installed on a stationary unit or on the robot itself. The interchangeable inserts are available in two sizes. The insert with ER11 collet can accept tools with a shaft size up to 7mm, the insert with ER16 collet can accept tools up to 10mm. Spindle with changing system and axial displacement The tool-changing system can also be combined with an axial displacement which yields in the axial direction when used with front-facing tools such as cup brushes. This ensures that the tool is always pressed onto the component with virtually constant same pressure, even as the tool starts to wear. This improves the surface finish and ensures a high degree of tool utilisation and uniform abrasion on a large number of components. It also significantly reduces the time and effort required for readjustment via programming. The axial displacement is available with different contact pressures of between 5 N and 70 N in accordance with customer requirements.
