Application solutions using actuating technology

Fitting CuSi4Zn9MnP

Initial situation at the customer

Fitting

  • Machining on a rotary transfer machine
  • Requirement: Short cycle time and maximum productivity in series production
  • Tool system must be preconfigured outside the machine and be flexibly adaptable for a variety of parts

Special features of this solution

  • Mounting tools with adapter that can be preconfigured to avoid machine downtimes
  • VTS connection
  • Mounting tool quick and easy to change
  • False mounting or positioning impossible when changing the mounting tool
  • Indexable insert technology for low cutting material costs
  • PCD cutting material ensures maximum economic efficiency in series production

Tool highlights

Actuating Fittings

  • Mounting tool quick and easy to change thanks to VTS connection
  • The z=2 double slide ensures short cycle time and complete compensation for unbalance
  • Optimal coolant supply directly via the mounting tool

CYCLE TIMES [MIN.]

Advantages

  • Maximum productivity as all machining tasks (contours, threads, etc.) can be efficiently handled by MAPAL actuating technology
  • Double-edge tool solutions provide significant cycle time reductions of 35%
  • Reduction of downtime during product and insert changeovers in series production thanks to the VTS connection
  • Only one type of facing head with exchangeable mounting tools is necessary for the entire range of products
  • Maximum flexibility with regard to REACH regulations and therefore also variable component requirements
