Highlights

  • High dynamic AC servo drives for all axes
  • Quick and precise tool change due to Hydro-Expansion Chuck Technology (Ø 40 x 60mm DIN)
  • Optimisation of cutting process due to multi-cutting steps with adaptable feed rate and spindle speed
  • Production of polishing tool bodies
  • Microsoft Windows operating system with OptoTech user interface, thereby a minimum of set up times
  • Grinding to polishable quality in one cycle due to optimised cutting parameters
  • Integrated Edging and Chamfering

System advantage

  • Optimisatized cutting process
  • Pre-grinding or cut-to-polish finish grinding due to optimized cutting parameters in one working cycle 
  • Quick and precise tool change

Process characteristics

Technologies:

  • AST (Advanced Setup Technology, Touch Setting): Machine measures the contact point of lens/tool, decreasing set-up time
  • AFT (Advanced Feedrate Technology): Variable feed rate depending on pre-selected cutting capacity (spindle load)

Options

  • Direct driven tool spindle with HSK 63 interface
  • KombiTool or KombiTool+ [link]
  • AFT (Advanced Feedrate Technology)
  • Measuring Pin
  • Center Thickness Measurement Gauge
  • Exhaust Filter System for Mist Collection
  • Offline Programming Module
  • Asphere processing with optional software package
