A twin-pallet, horizontal machining centre, fully configured as a new standard package for high volume production of complex components within a 500 x 350 x 300 mm working envelope, is available in the UK for demonstration at Yuasa Warwick Machinery, sole UK agent for the Japanese manufacturer, Enshu. Designated JE30S, it is a high productivity machine with 1.5g acceleration in all axes, 60 m/min rapids, up to 15 m/min cutting feed rate and a BT30 13,000 rpm spindle motor (20,000 optional) which reaches full speed in just 0.38 sec from a standing start. The incorporation of an armless servo motor driven ATC and the option of broken tool detection inside the magazine contribute to the machine's reliable production capability.
Yuasa points out that for a capital investment of a little over œ110,000, a company can acquire the cell complete with full NC B-axis (as opposed to an indexing rotary table), 30-tool magazine, through-tool coolant, and a comprehensive swarf management system including bed wash, ceiling-mounted coolant nozzles and back wash coolant pumps.
There are no extras to pay for and the machine is ready to run 24/7 immediately following installation, as initial programs will usually have been written by Yuasa applications engineers as part of the sale.
The machine meets Enshu's 5,000 hours mean-time-between-failure reliability standard, as do all the manufacturer's latest models.
Measures have been taken to minimise operational power consumption, which is now 30 per cent lower than for previous machines.
The JE30S is also available in single-pallet version as well as in line-transfer format for production line applications.
The latter has dictated that all axis movements are on the column, supported on recirculating rolling element linear bearings.
Ballscrew expansion compensation is available as an option.
There is a choice of CNC system - either Yaskawa or Fanuc 21 iM.
