Overview

Machine concept The clear cut, modular structure of the Waldrich Siegen ProfiTurn V series covers a wide range of machine configurations for machining a broad spectrum of workpieces. To ensure long term reliability and superior quality, all major ProfiTurn V structural components are made of high quality cast iron and are machined in house at the highest precision.

Perfect solution for every task down to the last detail, the vertical lathes are designed for providing the perfect solution for any given machining task. The fully hydrostatic main axes of the machine ensure maximum static and dynamic stiffness, unsurpassed damping characteristics, zero backlash and a prolonged lifetime of the guideways. The hydrostatically guided rotary table allows for high table loads.

All main axes of the ProfiTurn V including the W-axis, are CNC controlled. A wide range of attachments for turning, milling, boring and grinding operations are available for the ProfiTurn V. For the fully automatic exchange of attachments we offer different types of tool changers from chain disk or rack type tool changers to a tool arena with an integrated robot. According to customer requirements, the ProfiTurn V can be equipped with a fixed rotary table, a rotary table with longitudinal displacement or with a portal in gantry design

Key Benefits

• Technology

Rotary table The base and faceplate of the rotary table are made of high quality cast iron. The hydrostatically guided faceplate is equipped with a well-dimensioned main bearing and is driven by a zero backlash 2 step master/slave drive. Further convincing design features of the ProfiTurn V are the machines' excellent static and dynamic properties, their extremely high driving torque and their high positioning accuracy during milling operations.

• Masterhead concept

Taking into consideration the special requirements of vertical turning, the proven Waldrich Siegen Masterhead concept was translated and implemented in the ProfiTurn V machines. The Masterhead concept offers a lot of advantages, among others, high rigidity of the Masterhead interface, long lifetime of drive shaft bearings, low noise level along with excellent overall efficiency and maximum availability of the machine, to name only a few.

• Tool changer

Fast and reliable exchange of a variety of different grinding, turning, milling and boring tools is a decisive factor for the economic and efficient manufacture of complex workpieces. Depending on space availability and the number of tools required, Waldrich Siegen provides different tool changing systems which guarantee minimum chip-to-chip times. According to individual customer requirements, we offer pick up, disk type, chain type, rack type tool changers or a tool arena with integrated roboter.

• Tool management

State-of-the-art tool management systems considerably add to reducing machine downtimes. Independent of the machine control, the Waldrich Siegen Tool Management System manages all relevant technical data and information. Furthermore, the system can be interfaced with a company's production planning system and thus be efficiently integrated into the overall production process.
