MILL P 900 with Smart Machine Features
October 1, 2017
GF Machining Solutions has introduced the Mikron MILL P 900 3-axis vertical milling machine.
"The Mikron MILL P 900 features a polymer concrete machine base that delivers extreme dynamic stiffness, while its thermal management, contour accuracy and precise positioning contribute to superior part surface finishes," said a company spokesperson. "A symmetrical portal design and effective chip management heighten operational efficiency."
"The machine uses the fast and efficient FANUC FS31iB CNC. Within the control are multiple machine optimization modules and smart machine features that effectively increase productivity and reduce energy consumption."
To reduce cycle times, the machine features a high-speed 20,000 RPM StepTec spindle that delivers 120 N m of torque. The spindle features an advanced V3D vibration monitoring system that uses three vibration sensors to provide a complete, accurate visualization of spindle performance. An available 36,000 RPM spindle delivers enhanced surface finishes due to its axial stability, making it ideal for high-end molds with tight finish and size tolerances.
The Mikron MILL P 900 comes standard with a 30-position tool magazine and automatic tool changer, and a 60-position tool magazine is also available. With easy access via a side door on the machine, operators can change out tools with ease. The tool changers also deliver a fast 4.2 second change time and a 7.4 second chip-to-chip change time.
Available integrated automated pallets that handle maximum payloads of 440 lbs. (200 kg), as well as chip control options, lights-out production capabilities and GF Machining Solutions' rConnect technology for process monitoring all contribute to optimize the overall machine utilization and output of the Mikron MILL P 900.
