Main Features

Our Axon FMU 500 BASIC PLUS is an extension of the FMU-Basic. It is a flexible 5-axis machine that is ideally suited for manufacturing complex parts in a single setup.

Our Basic Plus is capable of simultaneous 5-axis machining and is ready for your machining requirements.

The worktable features a faceplate with a diameter of 630 x 500 mm and a maximum table load of 250 kg.

The swivel axis, as a geared table, has a swivel range of -5° / +110°.

Our controls are Heidenhain TNC 640/7 and Siemens Sinumerik ONE, with the fastest calculation for simultaneous 5-axis milling.

SINUMERIK ONE

The SINUMERIK ONE is rightly regarded as the benchmark in the premium CNC class. High CNC performance as well as flexibility and openness are the basis for virtually any machine concept. Powerful hardware architecture and intelligent control algorithms as well as drive and motor technology of the highest class ensure high dynamics and precision during machining

Heidenhain TNC 640 / 7

heidenhain-iTNC-640-small

For nearly 30 years, TNC controls have proven themselves in daily use on milling machines, machining centers, and drilling machines. This is due on the one hand to the workshop-oriented programmability and on the other hand to the compatibility of programs from the respective predecessor controls.

Technical Details

Machine Column and Basic Structure

The new 5-axis machining center as a Basic Plus variant is designed for complex manufacturing of intricate parts and molds in 5 axes.

AC motors in the rotary and swivel axes represent the latest development in highly dynamic machine tool construction as a geared variant. The machine frame consists of heavily ribbed “Meehanite cast iron”.

High dynamic load capacity of the machine and optimal accessibility with a larger working area and a small footprint.

Slides and Guides

The design enables fast and precise table guidance even under maximum load and guarantees the elimination of the “stick-slip effect”. Long service life with high maintenance-free operation as well as high rapid traverse and feed speeds are further advantages of this system.

You have a machine with the greatest possible stability and machining precision at your disposal. For the X, Y axes, the following are used as guide elements. and Z axis, high-precision linear guides are used.

All axes are driven by powerful digital AC axis drives. These are the most important prerequisites for contour-accurate milling results. Corresponding measuring systems from Heidenhain ensure high repeatability and positioning accuracy.

Tool Changer

The integrated automatic tool changer has a capacity of 40 tools. The tools are changed into the spindle via a double gripper during the tool change.

Tool selection is bi-directional via the shortest path.

The tool magazine is located outside the working area, thus optimally protecting the tools. The tool magazine can be loaded from the outside, directly at the front, and can therefore be carried out parallel to machining.

This significantly reduces machine setup times. It is essential to ensure that, in accordance with DIN 1940, only tool holders and tools with a balancing quality of G = 2.5 are used.

Air Pressure Compensation Tank

For the trouble-free operation of the machines, it is necessary, among other things, to ensure a stable compressed air supply. If several consumers are switched on simultaneously in the air network, this usually leads to a short-term pressure drop and possible shutdown of the running machine. These fluctuations are absorbed and compensated for by the additional pressure accumulator directly on the machine.

Calibration Software (Option)

Axon-5-U65X

For optimal milling results, all 5-axis machines must be calibrated at regular intervals. The correlation between the linear movements of the machine and the spatial shifts of the zero point due to the rotation and swiveling of the table axes make calibration essential.

As an alternative to time-consuming manual measurement and correction of individual axis values, we offer an optional system for automatic measurement and self-calibration of the machine. The calibration cycle runs automatically and the corresponding correction values are independently transferred to the control. Measuring the machine is completed in a few minutes.

Ergonomic Control Panel

The control panel in all machines can be adjusted in two planes (rotation and swivel).

This allows the machine operator to optimally adapt to any body height and guarantees fatigue-free programming.
