150 MMS August 2017 mmsonline.com MODERN EQUIPMENT REVIEW features a trunnion-style rotary/tilt table designed for precise, cost-effective five-axis machining of intricate work and a Mazatrol SmoothX CNC for easier programming and faster part cycle times. T h e V M C c o m e s s t a n d a r d w i t h a h i g h - performance CAT 40, 12,000-rpm spindle that delivers high metal removal capabilities in common materials including steel, aluminum and cast iron. Speeds of 15,000 rpm and 20,000 rpm are also available to address a variety of part production requirements. The 60-tool-capacity tool magazine reduces setup time, allows for redundant tooling and enables more unmanned uninterrupted opera- tions, the company says. A n accompanying automatic toolchanger (ATC) speeds tool changes and reduces non-cutting time, while tool monitor- ing helps detect problems early. X-, Y- and Z-axis travels measure 19.88", 19.88" and 20.07", respectively, accommodating part sizes ranging to 19.68" in diameter and 12" high. Rapid traverse rates reach 1,181 ipm. The trunnion-style rotary/tilt table is made with high-speed roller-gear cam-drive technology for high torsional rigidity and positioning accuracy. The table tilts ±110 degrees in the B axis, rotates 360 degrees in the C axis and accommodates workpieces weighing as much as 440 lbs. The Mazatrol SmoothX CNC eases program generation for highly complex parts, the company says. It has several advanced functions that help to reduce machining cycle times, especially in fine-increment programs for simultaneous P: 888-249-4855 • E: sales@zebraskimmers.com 27000 Richmond Road, Unit 1• Solon, OH 44139 www.zebraskimmers.com MIXERS MADE IN THE • 14 metering tips for specific ratios • Maximum viscosity of 500 SUS • 30 day warranty • 48" discharge tube included (max length for delivery) ECONOMY MIXER ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED • Separate water shut-off valve • Machined from solid bronze casting with treated steel stand pipe • Maximum viscosity of 500 SUS • 40" discharge tube included (max length for delivery) • Fits drums, pails, or totes MACHINIST MIXER FOR MIXING AND DELIVERING METALWORKING FLUIDS PROVIDE A HEALTHIER WORKPLACE REDUCE ABSENTEEISM CUT HVAC COSTS • Exceeds OSHA & NIOSH requirements • Easily installs on any CNC machine • Eliminates oil/coolant mist, smoke, other fine aerosols and particulates To learn more, contact us at 513-528-5674, mistcollectors@LNSamerica.com or visit www.LNS-america.com.
