5-Axis Machining Centers
VORTEX II
- A-axis and B-axis spindles have high positioning accuracy and a large machining area
- A high power spindle provides high-speed and high-efficiency machining of large aerospace components
A-axis and B-axis for high-speed, high-positioning accuracy
±40 degree of rotary range ideal for machining aerospace components
When machining workpieces with complex contours such as aerospace components, a 3-axis vertical machining center typically requires small-diameter ball-end milling, while the VORTEX II series, which can tilt its spindle, uses ordinary end mill for side face machining, enabling quick and high-accuracy machining.
A-axis and B-axis use backlash-free and high rigidity roller gear cam. Each axis can be indexed in 0.0001-degree increments and the roller gear cam can transmit more than twice the torque when compared to a conventional worm drive. This allows for powerful and continuous cutting.
The standard spindle has a top speed of 10000 rpm to machine a wide range of workpiece materials – from steel to non-ferrous. Additionally, the AC 75 kW (100 HP), 18000 rpm spindle is designed for the machining of complex contours using small-diameter tools. The optional 211 ft・lbs, 13000 rpm spindle can be used for a wide range of applications including difficult to machine materials. These spindle lineup improves productivity in a wide range of applications.
Large machining area and table for large workpieces
Machine construction and control technology provide even more stable machining accuracy
Two types of the VORTEX II series are available to meet your production requirements: the column-feed type VORTEX 815/120-II and the double column VORTEX 1400/160-II with a large table.
