Manufacturing Systems for Precision Metal Components



The VL series for highly productive manufacturing: Idle times on these machines have been reduced to an absolute minimum. For example, the chip-to-chip time on the VL 2 is just 5 seconds.

The parts are transported by an integrated "O" automation system and loaded and unloaded using the pick-up principle.

At EASTEC EMAG will feature manufacturing systems for precision metal components live with its VL 4 Vertical Turning Machine.

The VL series will be on display for visitors to experience the EMAG modular inverted vertical lathe design. With the aim to develop a system of modular machines ideal for use in the manufacturing of medium and large batch runs, one common feature of all four machine sizes is the shared modular, compact design. Their small footprint means reduced floor space costs and flexibility in machine layout. Every VL machine features an integrated O-automation system for transporting workpieces. When combined with the self-loading pick-up spindles, this automation concept ensures short cycle times and high productivity. To accommodate machine operators, all the service units are easily within reach, with the various units (electrics, hydraulics, cooling system, cooling lubricant and central lubrication system) accessible at any time so that the machines can be maintained with ease.

"For new customers looking to easily enter the world of EMAG, check out EMAG's New Customer Promotion featuring a 25% discount on VL 2 of VL 4 machines, with a $10,000 technology kit included free with purchase. For more information visit ncp.emag.com," said a company spokesperson.

The technologies in the EMAG Group cover the entire spectrum of metalworking, including non-traditional processes. Electro-Chemical Machining (ECM) is used in the aerospace sector for the manufacture of blisks, while laser welding is essential in lightweighting automotive components. eldec modular induction (MIND) hardening systems are also available from EMAG, the latest addition to its technology portfolio. Featuring Simultaneous Dual Frequency (SDF) technology, eldec hardening systems complement the workpieces machined by EMAG lathes to create efficient, complete production lines. The flexible machine concepts and complete systems from EMAG offer modular and customized solutions for the production of workpieces in nearly every industry.
