Vertical Multi-Spindle Machines VSC 250 / 400 DUO VSC 160 / 250 TWIN VSC 200 TRIO

The powerful and compact multispindle, vertical pick-up turning machines from EMAG are predominantly used in medium and large batch production of precise components and are known for their high output rates. VSC 250/400 DUO VSC 160/250 TWIN VSC 200 TRIO 2

VSC DUO – the two-spindle machine for sequential operations. The DUO two-spindle machines are a The DUO design oers two separate very economical solution for the machining areas with independently machining of larger batches for small and programmable overhead slides. medium-size components. The DUO has Each machining area also features an the smallest footprint of the machines independently programmable disc-type for the machining of components in first turret in the front wall. and second operation.

Both turrets accommodate not only stationary tools but also driven drilling and milling tools. This allows for either identical or dierent operations to be VSC 250 DUO: Separate, sturdy machine bases made of polymer concrete MINERALIT®. The two overhead slides are independently programmable carried out in the two work spindles: • After the first set of operations have been carried out on the workpiece, using the first spindle, the back of the component is machined in the second one; or the second spindle could be used to finish-machine the workpiece in a second setup. • The alternative...

VSC TWIN – twice the number of components on the same footprint. TWIN-type VSCs are used to simultaneously machine large batches of workpiece pairs that have identical operating cycles on a minimum footprint. This also applies to components when the back side has to be machined too – this process is done on a second VSC TWIN linked to the first by a turnover station.

The overhead slides are separate entities. Both slides and their spindles feature separate X- and Z-axis drives and separate measuring systems with linear scales in all axes. Measuring two workpieces simultaneously can be a time saving measure. However, workpiece diameter and length are measured in each spindle individually. (Shown with protective guard between probe and machining area open) This way the TWIN ensures that workpiece diameter and length can be corrected for each spindle individually – this is a requirement for achieving the kind of precision demanded by today’s production...

The tooling systems – one for each of Measuring with three probes the three work spindles – accommodate eight tools each and are embedded in the machine base. A direct servo drive ensures that individual tool stations index at great speed. On the VSC 200 TRIO the control system carries out all tool osets separately. This machine also features the direct position feedback systems that are required to achieve μ-range precision. 11

MINERALIT® – the material that makes production dreams come true. All vertical pick-up turning machines of the VL, VSC and VLC series have a MINERALIT® polymer concrete machine base, MINERALIT® damping properties are 8 times better than cast iron. Vibration damping eect on EMAG machine bases made of MINERALIT® polymer concrete The advantages are: • Exceptional vibration damping eects, which lead to extended tool life and fantastic surface finishes • MINERALIT® is very thermo-stable which guarantees consistent production results In comparison to: Vibration damping eect on machine bases in...

Precision high volume production. The closed- loop machine design has an extremely sturdy, U-shaped base which is a requirement for short, symmetrical, closed-loop force distribution and, consequently, for a high degree of static and dynamic rigidity. The thin oil lm has an excellent damping eect – which is a requirement for a great surface nish and extended tool life, even where interrupted cuts are applied Constant temperature: A requirement for constant quality. The uid- cooled spindle motors, turrets, electrical cabinet and machine base, are combined with the thermo-symmetrical machine...

Task orientated material handling. Simple, exible workpiece handling: On all VSC series machines, as well as the two spindle machines loading and unloading can be done from either the right or the left. Another advantage is reconigzed during the turning of the workpiece for the second operation work: The turning takes place outside the machining area and therefore is easy to access and monitor. Depending on the machine The machine can be integrated and freely positioned in production lines, saving space and reducing linkup costs specifications, during the component changeover the automation...
