The HSM 200 LP and HSM 200U LP perfectly meet high-speed Milling
needs in production environments where location and available floor
space limit machine installation weight and dimensions. Second-floor
dental labs and watchmaking operations are two such examples.
Moreover, these machines are perfectly aligned with the Milling needs
of producers of smaller electrodes and higher-volume precision parts.
Dimensions of the three-axis HSM 200 LP and five-axis HSM 200U LP
during commissioning can be as little as 890 x 2,000 mm (width x
height) or 35.03 x 78.7 inches (width x height) with a weight of
approximately 3,600 kg (7,900 lb). The tables feature not only a
standard auto¬mated chuck but can be equipped with up to four
additional media channels to operate automated individual part
clamping systems on top of a palletized standard interface. With this
functionality, production of even small to medium batch sizes with
short cycle times may be tackled in unattended shifts, 24/7.
Great care was taken during the machines’ development to
reduce the footprint of the machine tool cell without sacrificing
high-quality machining results. That is accomplished with a
revolutionary axis concept built for in-process precision and
stability and superior chip fall. More specifically, the design
ensures rigidity and damping of the machine tool base for the most
smooth tool center point movement under changing load conditions
yielding excellent machining characteristics and finish part quality.
Plus, with linear direct drives on all axes, the HSM 200 LP and
HSM 200U LP produce perfect surface qualities down to Ra < 0.05
microns, reducing processing time, and impressively prolonging tool
life. The machines feature a Heidenhain iTNC 530 control, a powerful
50,000-rpm HSK-E32 motor spindle, 30- or 60-piece tool magazine, and
an 80- or 400-liter coolant tank with efficient chip separation by
progressive filter stages.
The two machines underscore GF AgieCharmilles' reputation for
innovating on behalf of customers. The HSM 200 LP and HSM 200U LP
offer the power, flexibility and precision to increase
customers’ competitive edge.
For example, in medical technology, the HSM 200U LP is the new
five-axis production machining solution for ceramic dental prostheses
as well as implants made of titanium, cobalt-chrome, or a variety of
plastic materials.
As another example, the HSM 200 LP is an asset to die and mold
manufacturers producing hardened tool steel inserts and copper
electrodes for light-emitting diodes (LEDs), zoom cameras and
microfluidics like lab-on-chip devices, and to makers of parts for
watch movements with built-in COCN direct part clamping solutions.
