Product catalog summary
Overview: The VSM-95 is a precision induction hardening machine designed for vertical scanning of cylindrical parts. It offers flexibility with one, two, or four-spindle configurations and is suitable for parts up to 80 inches (2030 mm) long and weighing up to 300 lbs (135 kg) on a single spindle.
Features and Benefits:
  • Capable of scan hardening cylindrical parts with high precision and repeatability of better than ± .002 inches.
  • Includes a pre-plumbed integral quench system for controlled and clean quenching.
  • Equipped with user-friendly controls, including a PLC with an industrial computer operator interface for simplified setup and troubleshooting.
  • Offers multiple operating modes for maximum application flexibility and high-speed indexing for increased productivity.
  • Rugged design with heavy-duty hardened and chrome-plated shafting ensures long life and low maintenance.
Specifications:
  • Models available for part lengths in 10-inch (250 mm) increments from 30 inches (760 mm) to 80 inches (2030 mm).
  • Integrated water-to-water plate flow heat exchanger with a pump/motor combination and dual four-port outlet quench manifolds.
  • Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) based closed-loop servo control with a 36-step part process program.
  • 15” LCD color touchscreen operator interface with a numeric keypad and USB port for program loading.
  • Manual load/unload through a sliding door, with a shipping weight of approximately 6500 lbs (2950 kg).
Quench System: The self-contained quench system features a plate and frame water-to-water heat exchanger, a bronze fitted integral pump motor, and a quench manifold with four outlets for uniform quench impingement.
Programmability: The VSM-95 is highly programmable, allowing for control over position, power level, dwell time, scan speed, rotation speed, and quench on/off. It supports real-time display of process parameters and is easily reprogrammable for various applications.
Safety and Options: The machine includes safety features such as an inductor ground sensor and a heavy-duty aluminum splash door with a safety switch. A wide range of options and accessories are available to expand its application range.

VSM-95 Rev 2 4/18/07 10:57 AM Page 1 VSM-95 One, Two or Four-Spindle, Vertical Scanning Precision Induction Hardening Machine Features/Benefits: • Scan hardens cylindrical parts up to (80 in./2030 mm) long with weights up to (300 lbs./135 kg on single spindle) (400 lbs./180 kg max. total) • Single or dual position tooling for optimum machine usage • Easily adapts to most heat stations • User friendly controls simplify set-up, changeover and trouble-shooting, includes PLC with industrial computer operator interface • Pre-plumbed integral quench system for a controlled, clean quench • Multiple operating modes are easily selected for maximum application flexibility • High speed index capability for exceptional productivity Rugged Production Hardening System Self-Contained Quench System A completely pre-plumbed, self-contained quench system features a plate and frame water-to-water heat exchanger for low plant water demand and easy cleaning. A bronze fitted integral pump motor combination eliminates alignment problems. The quench tank has epoxy coated surfaces for long life. A four outlet quench manifold allows the user to balance each line separately for uniform quench impingement. A suction strainer and in-line basket strainer with dual filters assures a clean quench. Integrating our experience and technology has paved the way for developing this precision vertical hardening system (VSM-95). The outstanding rigidity of our design results in repeatability of better than ± .002 in. Heavy-duty hardened and chrome plated shafting with bearing seals, wipers and scrapers means long life and low maintenance. In addition to scanning, our flexible system performs a variety of static applications such as single shot hardening, tempering, annealing and gear hardening. The standard low maintenance, large servo allows a high speed index without sacrificing slow speed accuracy for increased productivity. The standard available model includes many special mechanical features with a wide variety of options to expand the application range including a second work station. Programmable For Maximum Flexibility The standard VSM-95 has a programmable logic controller (PLC) based closed-loop servo control. Individual 36 step part process program controls position, power level, dwell time, scan speed, rotation speed and quench on/off. It also features a real time display of process parameters. The control cycles automatically through intermittent heating and quenching times at selected scanning speeds. It is easily reprogrammed for static and lift-and-rotate applications. To further simplify set-up, the upper tooling carriage can be adjusted up/down without tools. Options are available for even more versatility. See our option sheet, Bulletin HT-45 OP, for details.
