HyperMach(TM) System is available as 5-axis head plate mill that delivers 460 cu-in./min metal removal rate for aggressive cutting of large aluminum structures. Twin independent, 5-axis head, dual work zone version offers same cutting capability with large capacity automatic tool changers. Users can load/unload parts in one work zone while machining 2 parts simultaneously in second work zone. Both have internal vacuum system to accommodate dry or near-dry machining.

Ultra high-precision technology will dramatically improve machining of new
materials used in today's aircraft
Hebron, Kentucky, December 20, 2005 - Cincinnati Machine announced today that it has expanded its HyperMach(TM) Series of High Rail Linear Motor Profilers by adding a Drilling and Trimming Router platform. This new machine will serve to meet today's demand for extreme accuracy in high-speed processing of composites. The design is also well-suited for a variety of other new materials, metallic & non-metallic honeycomb and aluminum as well as structures utilizing a combination of these materials.
As the use of new, high-strength/light-weight materials has migrated from military to commercial aircraft, improved drilling and trimming capabilities are required to meet higher volume assembly rates, according to Cincinnati Machine engineers. Less sophisticated routers designed for wood or plastic materials can no longer provide the accuracy or throughput required for determinate assembly processes used to produce today's commercial and military aircraft.

Currently, Cincinnati Machine offers two HyperMach platforms. A single 5-Axis head plate mill delivers a 460 cubic in./min. metal removal rate for aggressive cutting of large aluminum structures. The Twin Independent 5-Axis Head, Dual Work Zone Machining System offers the same powerful cutting capability with the added flexibility of large capacity automatic toolchangers. This configuration provides extremely high spindle
utilization facilitated by the ability to load/unload parts in one work zone while machining two parts simultaneously in the second work zone.
The new Router platform incorporates proven Hyper Mach machine modules that include expandable X-Axis travel available in rack & pinion or linear motor direct drive configurations, standard linear direct drive Y-Axis, and vertical ram and A/C spindle head. Additionally, the HyperMach Router is equipped with a fully integrated internal chip and dust vacuum system to accommodate dry or near-dry machining.
The new router will be offered with multi-function options to maximize flexibility in meeting a wide variety of processing approaches. The first HyperMach Drill and Trim Router will be available for delivery in late 2006. Complete information on the HyperMach Drilling & Trimming Router platform can be obtained by contacting Cincinnati Machine toll-free at 1-800-934-0735, or by visiting the company's web site at www.cincinnatilamb.com
