At IMTS 2016, EMCO introduced the new EMCO VERTICAL VT 260 vertical turning machine with FANUC 31i CNC, rear chip ejection, driven tools, Y-axis and hollow spindle drive.
The machine is engineered in several versions: VT 260 (ISM) with hollow spindle and without driven tools; VT 260 M (ISM) with driven tools and hollow spindle drive; and the VT 260 MY (ISM) with a Y-axis on top. Equipped with a hollow spindle drive instead of a belt drive, all versions include a powerful 29 kW drive. The VT 260 MY with Y-axis offers a travel of 180(+/-90) mm. For all the VT 260s, 12 VDI40 tools are mounted in the tool turret. The basic machine also includes a coolant device and a chip conveyor for rapid, efficient chip removal.
Designed for heavy-duty machining, the VT 260 is equipped with an integrated self-loading system despite its small footprint. High productivity, high repeat accuracy and good operability are the key features of this machine.
The integrated pick-up system self-loads chuck parts with a diameter of up to 260 mm, thus saving the user the additional costs and programming time involved with the use of an add-on automated unit. It is no longer necessary to align the automated unit with the machine, causing downtime. The VT 260 includes a conveyor system in which customers can store up to 24 workpieces. The conveyor belt moves the workpieces into the pick-up position.
The vertical, high-power spindle makes turning, drilling and threading operations easy. The rigid machine structure supports substantial cutting performance in serial production and is suited for fine and hard machining.
Equipped with large roller guides, the heavy-duty turning machine is suited for work on short and heavy workpieces with a large diameter. The large guide rails and guide shoe are designed to provide stability even at high loads.
The new FANUC 31i with chip ejection at the rear side as well as the Sinumerik 828D from Siemens with chip conveyor on the right or left side, depending on which side the automation is situated, are available.
