WFL Millturn Technologies will present two turning-boring-milling machines at EMO: the M50 MILLTURN / 3000mm and the M80X MILLTURN / 4500mm. Visitors can experience the M80X live with a demonstration of the machining of a gear shaft, including the measurement of the gear teeth. Both machines feature a new design and are equipped with Sinumerik ONE. A mobile robot installed on an automated guided vehicle (AGV) is set to be another highlight of the event. It will demonstrate how to load and remove tools and workpieces. The M80X MILLTURN with a 4500 mm machining length and 1000mm turning diameter is equipped with a grinding attachment and a vibration-damped Silent ToolsTM Plus boring bar. Visitors can see what the machine can do for themselves with a live demonstration of the machining of a gear shaft measuring 800 mm in diameter and 1824mm in length. During the demonstration, gear teeth will be produced using WFL FLANX cycles. On the M50 MILLTURN / 3000 mm, WFL will provide a live demonstration of the machining of a power generation shaft, as well as turbine blades and fir tree, impeller and generator shaft profiles. The demonstration workpiece has a diameter of 600mm and a length of 2355 mm. WFL turning-boring-milling machines now feature Sinumerik ONE from Siemens with its new user interface. The new machine control system is impressively modern and user-friendly. Meanwhile, the integrated SIMATIC S7-1500F PLC enables PLC cycle times that are up to 10 times faster than its predecessor. Boasting a selection of innovative technology functions, Sinumerik ONE optimises the machining speed, contour accuracy and machining quality. Sinumerik ONE makes machine tools more productive and therefore faster, more flexible and more efficient.
