Linear Motor Drive / Ultra High-speed / Milling Center create your future

UH430L UH650L Linear Motor Drive / Ultra High-speed / Milling Center Sodick started manufacturing high-speed milling machine to respond the customers’ demands to realise high-precision electrodes. After Sodick developed the world‘s first linear motor drive EDM, the company developed the MC180L, a machining center with linear motor drive, in 2001. In 2007, Sodick launched the best selling linear motor drive milling machine range „HS Series“ which specialized in high-speed milling, aiming to achieve an unrivaled high accuracy and advanced surface quality.

The simple configuration of the magnet plate and the coil unit maintains high repeatability accuracy with no backlash and without friction. Since there is no secular change, stable positioning accuracy of the machining axes can be maintained over a long period. Even during high-speed feeds between minute distances, this machine demonstrates the best drive performance for high-speed milling machining without positioning deviation or speed errors. It has an innovative designed cooling system; the coolant fluid runs through the linear motor coils. Thanks to this patented cooling system, it can...

High-Speed Milling High speed milling is a very efficient process, where a small diameter tool can be used in a very stable rigid spindle. This minimizes deflection, improves accuracy and reduces vibration. It also enables very high linear feeds with shallow cuts, unlike conventional milling which dynamically cuts deeper with more force. Therefore high speed milling greatly reduces distortion, improves accuracy and tool life. In order to realise these points it is necessary to have highly rigid spindle with advanced control system. Machining material: Cemented carbide Machining conditions:...

Mirror surface machining of a 100 mm diameter parabolic curved surface. Accurate high-precision curvature processing with 3-axis linear and motion control. For machining precise shapes, the tool path needs the ability to suddenly change direction in a split second over a minute distance. Therefore a high precision control is required to handle predetermined machining speed instantaneously, while still maintaining dimensional 3D tolerances, that is possible thanks to the linear motor technology. All machining axes are comprehensively balanced with perfect synchronization in the control which...

Changing the material of the main parts from conventional casting to CFRP* greatly reduced the weight of the Z-axis, and also reduced the operating weight of the X-axis which supports the Z-axis. The reduced load on the X-axis realized a favorable balance with the Y-axis, and improved the comprehensive dynamic and static characteristics of all three axes of the linear motor drive. *Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic Unique cooling system Changing the material of the main parts from conventional casting to CFRP greatly reduced the weight of the Z-axis, and of the Reduction cooling system...
