With rigidity and precision built into every aspect of the new VCenter-AX800, the 5-axis offering has a C-axis table that is clamped at high torque (3433Nm) for heavy cutting whilst the B-axis swivel head includes a hirth coupling with 1° increment that further enhances the rigidity to deliver 4 + 1 axis machining capability.
Incorporating a rotary table that is built next to the fixed table, this innovative Vcenter-AX800 is equipped with a swivel head on the travelling column to implement 5-axis machining on large parts. Furthermore, with a Rollercam-drive® mechanism for both rotary axes, the AX800 ensures sufficient rigidity for 4+1 axis heavy machining with high rotation compared to less robust conventional worm gear mechanism machines.
