Explorer 1 Drilling machine

Product catalog summary

Overview: The FMB Explorer 1 is a one spindle vertical drilling machine designed for precision and efficiency in drilling operations. It features a robust electro-welded high-rigidity carpentry base and is equipped with a controlled 4-axis CNC system, ensuring high precision with a double-position control axis.

Specifications: The machine supports a maximum beam length of 15 meters and a minimum of 450 mm, with a width range from 40 mm to 450 mm. It can handle drilling diameters up to 32 mm and operates with a spindle rotation speed of up to 3,000 rpm. The spindle power is rated at 6.1 kW, with a unit rated current of 25 A and short circuit protection of 10,000 A.

Features: The Explorer 1 includes automatic control of clamping and dragging rollers for material feeding along the 'x' axis, vertical pushers, horizontal and vertical locking vices, and a swarf extractor. It also features an oil nebulizing tool cooling system to prevent liquid spillage and a laser system for starting bar zero setting.

Software: The machine is equipped with user-friendly software displayed on a 20” touch screen interface. It includes tool tables and tables for workable profile families, allowing for easy programming and memorization of pieces and programs. The machine can connect to the internet for remote assistance.

Advantages: The Explorer 1 offers smaller overall dimensions compared to traditional machines, with easy installation and mobility due to its monobloc unit design. It can work on various profiles, including beams, angle bars, tubular, UNP, and flat bars, and allows for operations on both ends of the bar.

Optional Features: The machine is Software 4.0 ready, enhancing its capabilities for modern manufacturing environments.
