Heavy-Duty CNC Vertical Turning Center



The LV1100RM features a traveling column to maintain accuracy when turning larger workpieces.

Hyundai WIA has introduced the LV1100RM, a heavy-duty, high production vertical CNC turning center. It features a rigid and stable platform for heavy-duty cutting, a single piece and a square type column for stability. Vertical configuration offers enhanced chip flow and may be utilized for in-line production applications with automation.

The LV1100RM features a traveling column to maintain accuracy when turning larger workpieces. Each axis is directly connected to a digital servo motor to provide high rigidity and minimal thermal distortion. All axes are driven by large diameter, high precision double-nut ball screws. The double pretension design provides enhanced positioning and repeatability with virtually no thermal growth, according to the company. All ball screws are connected directly to the servo drive motors without gears or belts, eliminating backlash.

The LV1100RM features maximum swing of 1,355 mm and maximum cutting diameter of 1,160 mm. All axes of the LV1100RM feature box guideways. With the counterbalance cylinder installed, the impact of the vertically moving Z-axis is minimized during rapid traverse. The slope type bed improves chip flow and disposal of cutting fluids and minimizes thermal growth in the machine base. X-axis travel: 620 mm. Z-axis travel: 1,000 mm. X-axis rapid travel: 24 m/min. Z-axis rapid travel: 24 m/min.

The main spindle is designed to minimize heat distortion and vibration. "High precision cutting is possible and prevents foreign material from entering into the main spindle," said a company spokesperson. "Heavy-duty cutting is possible from the servo motor's stable division and curvic coupling's powerful clamp pressure. The shape and arrangement of the tool holder enable effective cutting."

The spindle for the LV1100RM has been designed to improve rigidity and precision using rigid, multiple rows of roller bearings. The optional Hi-Low Chuck pressure system allows the operator to control the pressure setting (high or low), based on each specific cutting situation. Contour machining is possible with BC axis, enabling the operator to machine outer shapes and pockets using rotating tools. The LV1100RM lathe has protective measures in place to keep chips and other foreign matter from entering the main spindle for enhanced long-term performance. The lathe incorporates a belt driven spindle, which minimizes noise and vibration during both heavy cutting as well as high-speed machining.

Hyundai WIA's servo driven turret, available with life tooling-M type-features a large diameter coupling for better clamping, which is intended to enable heavy cuts and increased tool life. A large 12 station BMT turret is a standard feature, enabling high accuracy turning and milling operations in one set-up. The turret is driven by high torque servo motor with a 0.4 second indexing time in either direction. The latest generation BMT top plate is designed to increase tool performance and rigidity by securing each tool with four screws. Overall cutting power and capability have been improved for all applications, including milling, drilling and tapping.

Turret specifications:

  • Number of tools: 12 each
  • Tool size: OD, 32 x 32 mm; ID, 80 mm
  • Indexing time: 0.6 sec/step

Mill turret:

  • Output: 11/7.5 kW
  • Speed: 3,000 RPM
  • Torque: 70/47.8 Nm
  • Collet size: 34 (ER 50) mm
  • Type: BMT 85P.

Machining capabilities have been increased with the addition of a straight milling head, which can remove material from the side of the workpiece, and angular milling head, which can perform ID operations. A variety of additional tool holders can further enhance the machine with capabilities that include drilling and tapping, among others.

The LV heavy-duty, CNC vertical turning center features the latest generation FANUC i CNC control. This control makes available a variety of post processor technologies available through a large network of CAM vendors. Networking capabilities allow programs to be loaded directly to the shop floor from the CAM workstation and with the optional Manual Guide i conversational programming system, fast program creation is possible right at the machine tool control panel.
