Centre of attention

The launch of the Almac CU1005 enables Tornos to offer a rigid and stable machining centre capable of high precision operations on simple to complex workpieces.

This stability is created by a mechanically welded base that sits on a load bearing cast iron frame that has significant mass as well as the ability to guarantee excellent surface finishes and accuracy. The X and Y slides of the Almac CU 1005 are mounted on pre-stressed rails and ballscrews with the vertical axis formed from a solid cast iron V-guide. With table movements performed by brushless AC motors with a digital closed loop control, the CU 1005 can be equipped with three, four or five axes, a 180° rotating transfer table and either high speed spindles or a multi-spindle block for high production environments. With regard to speed, the CU1005 has a feed rate of 5m/minute in X, Y and Z axis over a working envelope of 220mm, 120mm and 230mm respectively. Within this compact envelope is an accurate machine tool with a positional accuracy and deviation of 0.001mm. This envelope works under an ISO25 spindle taper that has a 1,000rpm to 12,000rpm speed range with a clamping diameter from 1mm to 16mm. However, an optional 30,000rpm spindle is available with an ISO25 or HSK 32 taper. Equipped with Fanuc control, the new offering has a capacity for 24 tool pots with 48 pots as an option for manufacturers with more complex production needs. Tool change time is rapid at 1.2 seconds.
