SORALUCE presents the new multitasking gantry type portal milling turning machine PXG-19000-W for large components
The SORALUCE PXG-W milling boring center is a gantry multitasking machine with moving bridge, providing great versatility and productivity for big dimension component machining, providing:
- High capacity machine with clearance between columns of 7250 mm and clearance under the bridge of 7320 mm
- Multitasking: machine suitable for the most demanding jobs, able to switch from milling to turning working mode, without any difficulty
- Working area adapted to customer's requirements: floor plate of 12,000 x 6,000 mm and turning table of 6,000 mm diameter capable to turning workpieces with diameter up to 9,000 mm and 150 Tn
- Structure calculated using CAE tools, providing the best balance between stiffness and internal damping capacity, as well as a remarkable dimensional stability
- High spindle power and torque which, in combination with the full cast iron structure, ensure very high material removal rates
- Customised milling and turning heads
- High level of automation
- Pendulum machining: allowing simultaneous machining operations and workpiece preparation.
- Advanced SORALUCE Technology: DAS system, Accura Heads, SSV, Adaptive Control, etc.
- Double operator platform, close to the machining area, optimizing productivity, allowing visual access to the machining area at all times and access to the workpiece.
Additionally, the machine has the latest SORALUCE technology developments with innovative functions and the required features for potential future needs:
The innovative DAS system consists of a device that can actively increase the dynamic rigidity of the machines, thus increasing cutting capability by up to 300% due to the reduction of the risk of chatter during the machining process. This system won the European Quality Innovation of the Year 2015 and Best of Industry 2015 awards.
SSV system to vary the tool’s speed of rotation to reduce the risk of chatter, especially during boring and turning operations. It continuously variates the spindle speed to distort chatter regeneration, especially during turning and boring operations.
Adaptive control providing automatic adjustment of the defined cutting parameters depending on the real machining situation.
DHC, a self-calibration system that increases the head positioning precision at any point in space.
The machine has been designed for the machining of prismatic parts in a single set-up and for different applications of mechanical engineering, energy, naval, mining and capital goods.
