Soraluce, a Danobat Group company, will introduce the KB 150W horizontal boring machine at IMTS 2014.
The Soraluce KB 150W Series is a T-type boring machine for streamlined, multi-face machining of large sized workpieces. According to the company, the combination of linear guiding and hydrostatic systems provides high dynamics for improved machining capability, while the rigid structure and boring spindle design help ensure long term machine precision.
This machine offers high performance and high feed forces of the cross axis and quill spindle, resulting in high stock removal capacity. Its heavy-duty design and high dynamics provides enhanced power and cutting speed capacity. With all main machine elements made of cast iron, the rigid design helps provide high precision. The machine has been developed using the finite elements method and tested for rigidity to reduce vibration problems. It has a user-friendly machine configuration that allows the operator to be next to the working area, enabling easy part setting, measuring operations, etc. In addition, a full enclosure is available.
The rigid quill spindle is mounted on large angular contact ball bearings and lubricated with an air-oil system. The quill's maximum thermal stability is due to a complete cooling system of the bearing, gearbox and spindle motor systems. This, combined with a high power transmission, guarantees high stock removal capacity as well as enhanced feed force, according to the company.
The rotary table rotates by high precision bearing and low friction surfaces for smaller load capacities and hydrostatic bearings for larger load capacities. According to the company, these rotation systems ensure no surface wear, meaning it is optimal for highly demanding and accurate processing. Table rotation is via a dual drive system utilizing a large external crown gear with helical gearing and zero backlash precision gearbox. The hydraulic clamping system allows for maximum tangential clamping force up to 140,000 Nm / 103,244 ft-lbs.
