For high-precision productivity in 3-axis vertical milling, the Mikron MILL P 900, available with the HEIDENHAIN Touch Numerical Control (TNC) 640, offers capabilities for the mold and die industry.
"The TNC 640 on the Mikron MILL P 900 answers customers' need for greater flexibility," said a GF Machining Solutions spokesperson. "The control's intuitive, user-friendly interface offers a wide range of functions designed to ensure reliability. The touchscreen allows the operator to navigate through the control quickly and easily, which frees up the operator for other value-added tasks. Multiple machine optimization modules and smart machine features increase productivity and reduce energy consumption."
The MILL P 900 features a polymer concrete machine base that offers enhanced dynamic stiffness, and thermal management, contour accuracy and precise positioning to create enhanced surface finishes. A symmetrical portal design and chip management solution heighten operational efficiency.
To reduce cycle times, the machine features a high-performance, high-speed 20,000 RPM Step-Tec spindle that delivers 120 Nm of torque. The spindle features an advanced V3D vibration monitoring system with three vibration sensors that visualize spindle performance completely and accurately. An available 36,000 RPM spindle delivers the axial stability to create the surface finishes necessary for high-end molds with tight tolerances for finish and size.
The MILL P 900 includes a 30-position tool magazine and automatic tool changer, with a 60-position option available. The tool changers deliver 4.2-second tool changes with a 7.4-second chip-to-chip time. Easy access via a side door enables operators to change out tools with ease.
Available integrated automated pallets handle maximum payloads of 200 kg (440 lbs.). Chip control options, lights-out production capabilities and GF Machining Solutions' rConnect process monitoring technology all contribute to optimize overall machine utilization and output on the MILL P 900.
