TWINFLEX

Multi-spindle two stations CNC machining center

TWINFLEX - the flexible two station CNC machining center with short chip-to-chip and low idle time is achieved by alternating machining between stations.

The TWINFLEX has two swivel bridges with independent drives. During the loading and unloading process both machining units work together on the workpiece of one swivel bridge. At the same time the loading and unloading space is screened off from the neighboring workspace by a protective guard.

Further advantages of the TWINFLEX:

• high productivity in use over long periods
  
  
• two independent, CNC controlled machining units working simultaneously
  
  
• five sided machining in each station
  
  
• simultaneous machining of different solid angles
  
  
• loading and unloading in parallel with machining thereby reducing idle times
  
  
• maximum precision by means of compact, closed-type construction, separately adjustable machining stations, high accuracy of concentricity and permanently assigned tools
  
  
• minimum idle times through tool changeovers without reductions of rotational speed
  
  
• low traverse paths, chip-to-chip time 1.5 secs
  
  
• no units or components sensitive to coolant or chips in the workspace
  
  
• the free fall of chips onto the conveyor also renders possible the use of minimal lubrication
  
  
• automation or interlinking with the same or other machine systems
