Full Simultaneous 5-Axis Vertical Machining Centre
With extended Z-axis travel of 480mm while the X & Y-axes (700mm & 520mm) offer travel
to fully exploit continuous path 5-axis machining to extremely tight tolerances.
The YCM FX350A can perform simultaneous cutting in all five axes to produce complex
aerospace, electronic and automotive components. The FX350A 5-axis VMC's heavy duty
Meehanite cast structure provides the same metal cutting performance levels normally
expected from a 3-axis vertical machining centre, but with the additional functionality
of two extra cutting/positioning axes. The size of these axes travels allow long
cutting tools to be used, to generate complex freeform geometric surfaces such as
those found on blades, impellers and BLISKs (blade-integrated disks).
Within a compact footprint of 2625mm by 2210mm the use of a high accuracy 2-axis
rotary unit permits workpieces up to 400mm diameter by 400mm long to be machined
to extremely tight tolerances.
The FX350A offers a repeatability of 0.007mm and positioning accuracy of 0.010mm.
