Introduction
The document introduces the Performance Series by WTO, a new standard program aimed at enhancing cutting performance in turning centers. It combines innovative technology with high quality to boost productivity and reduce cycle times in drilling and milling operations.
Specifications
The Performance Series features large spindle bearings for increased rigidity, a compact design for extended tool length, and a patented labyrinth seal for contamination protection. It also includes an external collet nut for higher clamping force and a ground indicator surface for precise alignment.
Machine Types and Turret Specifications
A detailed list of machine types and turret specifications is provided, covering manufacturers like Benzinger, Boehringer, Cincinnati, and others. Each entry details the drive coupling type and any compatibility notes.
Relevance of ISO 9001 Certification
WTO's ISO 9001 certification, achieved in 1994, underscores its commitment to quality, marking it as the first manufacturer of driven precision tooling to receive this certification.
Conclusion
The Performance Series by WTO sets a new industry benchmark for high-performance tooling, offering significant cost savings and productivity improvements for turning centers.
Turret Systems for High-Pressure Applications
The document outlines specifications for selecting turret systems suitable for high-pressure machining applications, detailing turret types, clamping systems, dimensions, and coolant pressure capabilities.
Main Sections- Turret Specifications: Lists turret specifications by type (A: Face mounted, B: O.D. mounted) with dimensions and data for high-pressure applications, supporting a maximum coolant pressure of 1160 PSI (80 bar).
- Clamping Systems: Specifies clamping systems like ER-25A, ER-32, and ER-50, with size ranges and dimensions.
- Drive Coupling and Ratio: Features a drive coupling system with a 2:1 speed reduction ratio.
- Coolant Supply: Includes internal and external coolant supply systems for high-pressure operations.
- Manufacturer and Model Details: Lists turrets from manufacturers such as Baruffaldi, Duplomatic, Emco, Okuma, Sauter, and Mazak.
- Additional Notes: Some models deviate from VDI standards, and wrenches must be ordered separately.
