Hyperturn 65 POWERMILL – For greater productivity in complete machining operations for complex workpieces

The HYPERTURN series was conceived to gain considerable increases in productivity during series production. Complex as well as costly turning, drilling, milling and gear cutting operations can be carried out in only one work process. Additional clampings and the temporary storage of parts are no longer necessary and workpiece precision is greatly improved. Total production time, fixture and personnel costs, as well as floor space requirements can be drastically reduced by choosing to work with the HYPERTURN.

With a spindle distance of 1300 mm, the Hyperturn 65 Powermill has significantly more clearance for simultaneous machining works on the main and counter spindles than comparable models. With 29 kW and 250 Nm the counter spindle now has enough power to machine the workpiece simultaneously with two tools. This “4 axis machining” is a further aspect to improve productivity. A further benefit is the milling spindle, which with 29 kW, 79 Nm and 12,000 rpm, stands for high productivity in the complete machining of complex workpieces. The B axis direct drive gives the Hyperturn 65 PM good dynamics and contour capabilities with 5 axis simultaneous machining, alongside shorter ancillary times spent changing tools. The additional Y-axis on the lower turret makes extensive milling work possible at the same time as machining with the milling spindle.
