Designed for manufacturers focused on high-volume/low-mix or low-volume/high-mix production environments, UNISIG's next generation of UNE Series gundrilling machines are engineered to provide enhanced operational flexibility, performance and operation. Engineered to simplify gundrilling operations, UNE Series solutions that are designed for various industries, including firearms, automotive, medical, energy, defense and aerospace.
With five models built from two frame sizes, the UNE Series can drill hole diameters from 1.4 mm to 40 mm and depths up to 3,000 mm. The compact frame construction saves valuable floor space. Each machine can fit in close proximity to a shop's existing machining center, lathe or Swiss-style machine for efficient part-processing strategies. Built with quick and easy set-up in mind, the machines are small enough to be relocated when necessary. For added flexibility to grow with future production needs, all UNE models are robot-ready, allowing shops to add a robot whenever it fits into their budget and production schedule.
"Our feature-rich UNE machines give customers a compact gundrilling solution equipped with the ability to grow alongside them," said Anthony Fettig, CEO of UNISIG. "A lot of job shops and OEMs have the desire to automate but lack a timeline to do so. Our UNE Series gives them gundrilling benefits for today. It also provides them with security for tomorrow knowing that they can further improve production by adding automation."
"Several innovative features contribute to the performance and productivity of the UNE Series," said a company spokesperson. "The single main spindle servo motor delivers the necessary horsepower for two-spindle machines. When power is applied in single-spindle mode, however, shops can produce larger diameter holes to increase their capabilities and add new business without adding a new machine."
"Unlike pressure-based coolant systems, the UNE Series features a programmable flow-based coolant delivery system designed to provide the right amount of coolant to the tool's cutting edge," continued the spokesperson. "The end result for the operator means they can confidently predict tool breakage and spend less downtime recovering an interrupted process."
Powered by Siemens, UNE Series machines feature intuitive controls that give operators a full process picture at a glance on a rich color interface with touchscreen capabilities. The control's heavy-duty buttons also function when operators are wearing gloves.
Ergonomically designed and engineered, UNE machines offer an automated door option that can benefit companies with or without automation. "Adding an automated door eliminates the repetitive task of opening and closing machine doors," said Fettig. "Not only does this reduce fatigue, but it improves throughput and gives the operator an opportunity to focus on adding value in other areas."
All UNE bases are FEA optimized and machined on five sides in single set-up for highest overall precision. This allows for simplified installation with no foundation work required, and three-point leveling on machines rated up to 1,000 mm length.
