FASTER THAN ANY OTHER MACHINE: Nesting processing at 50 m/min, saves 60% of time on drilling cycles thanks to the new drilling heads (also with double saw blade) and less than 15” for the tool change thanks to the FAST tool changer directly installed on the mobile unit.

MAXIMUM HOLDING: TOP QUALITY Thanks to the X-Vacuum System, the vacuum is condensed into the area of the worktable where the workpiece is being processed. Perfect to process small workpieces or highly breathable materials.
 

HIGHLY MODULAR The ultimate solution to simplify work: cell version, available to configure the machine no matter the material flow required.

Machine Configuration

The bottom supporting structure has been designed to be assembled in a cage-like shape, with all the parts electro welded one and strongly ribbed one to the other so the reach the best rigidity possible; the structure, with a very wide base, grants long lasting stability and precision under all working conditions and doesn’t require the machine being fixed to the ground.

The cage-shaped bottom structure also provides a solid support for the mobile unit on top of it: the operating units moving on the cantilever support take advantage of this balanced base thus granting the highest performances in quality and precision.

The mobile unit, cage-shaped and ribbed, is anchored to the base through a pattern of sliding supports moving on recirculating balls circuits on prismatic guides: this solution grants the best durability along the entire operating life of the machine.

The displacement of the mobile unit along the bottom frame (X axis) and the operating units along the mobile unit’s beam (Y axis) is granted through a rack/pinion system designed with helical teeth so to allow higher thrust tooth-to-tooth thus allowing better acceleration and speed along both X and Y axis.

Helical teeth once properly designed are able to reduce also wear on mechanical organs and noise in operating conditions.

The vertical Z axis is driven through a recirculating balls screw which ensures perfect balance under dynamic loads and bears very high acceleration and deceleration values.

The routing unit is directly installed on the Z-axis slide thus granting the highest finishing quality thanks to a complete absence of vibrations.

The displacements along X-Y-Z axes are managed through "brushless" motors driven by static inverters which grant:

• Reduced cycle timing thanks to higher accelerations
• Better positioning precision through high resolution encoders
• No set-up operations once switching on the machine thanks to absolute encoders utilization
• No general maintenance operations thanks to the absence of brushes, "brushless" system

The management of the axes displacement and generally the devices of the machine is assured by an industrial NC module with digital data transmission carried out through “CAN OPEN BUS” technology, able not only to reach the highest speed in communication intervals but also to be unaffected by external electromagnetic interferences.

PRO-SPACE Safety System

The absence of fences surrounding the machine allows the operator easy access to the working table from any position around the machine with no need to wait for the program interruption. The maximum speed of the axes is limited by the software to 25 m/min (984 in/min), fulfilling current safety norms. This arrangement grants the operator to work in total safety.

The Pro-Space system allows the machine to take a small sized footprint. Thanks to the exclusive solution of integrating the electrical cabinet and the vacuum pump inside the frame structure, SCM can install the machine even in the smallest shops while avoiding repositioning of any equipment

Rear Inspection Opening with RFID Detection Device

Located on the rear left corner of the protective cage, this opening is equipped with a transparent ejection-proof material. Swinging on hinges, it allows for easy maintenance operations on rear side of the machine

Retractable Safety Strip Curtains

Impact-tested multi-layer curtains increase safety around the equipment by providing an added barrier between the operator and the tool in the case of a fracture during machining. The safety strip curtains are equipped with ON-OFF pneumatic vertical movement. It is possible to program the lifting action during the X axis rapid movements. This reduces the impact between work piece and curtain in case delicate panels are present.

Electrical Connection with Voltages Other than 380/400V - 50/60Hz

The machine is equipped with an autotransformer to convert the voltage coming from the main electrical supply to the voltage required to make the machine operative. Instructions for correct electrical connections to the customer power grid are included in the document 90L0635760A which is provided with the machine.

The transformer/auto transformer is ALWAYS:

1) NOT regarded as part of the standard machine supply, but must be integrated in the electrical equipment of the customer’s company

2) NOT connected to the machine by the manufacturer

3) Connected and checked BY THE CUSTOMER

• The autotransformer includes the connection of the neutral for generating 220V inside the electric panel
• Allowed electricity supply networks: TN-S / TN-C

Air Conditioning on Electrical Cabinet

The conditioner maintains a temperature inside the electrical cabinet within the values of a correct machine use. This option is advisable in environments with temperatures above 35°C.

Centralized Air Conveyor

Air conveyor which groups all the machine exhaust outlets and allows to connect it to the general dust collector system through one main exhaust outlet. Inside the main dust collector are fitted pneumatic cylinders that automatically control the opening/closing of each exhaust outlet when the operating unit is switched on/off.

High Efficiency (HE) Multifunction Aluminum Worktable

Includes an aluminum table with vacuum holes set at 120 mm pitch. Closure of the holes is performed by way of a "patent pending" rapid magnetic plug system. Grooves are set at 20 mm from each other for fixing of the workpiece using rubbers gasket. The worktable has been designed for practical and safe use with any device and, most of all, for quick and easy configuration during daily operations.

Built with inert material and immune to the main deformation factors, the table allows - through a 20x20mm grooves grid – for the operator to always find the optimal path to place the rubber gasket. The specific design of the grooves grid also allows placing vacuum pods of varying sizes in any position on the whole worktable which makes the machine suitable for machining operations which require the single part to be raised from the table (horizontal drilling, bottom edge rounding, bottom side machining etc.).

The worktable contains a 120x120mm grid of vacuum outlets which can be opened and closed through metal "plugs". A magnetic insert on each outlet ensures quick management of the vacuum configuration, saving time while setting up the machine and allowing the vacuum power to be distributed only where necessary.

The worktable can be configured with aluminum reference stops on its four corners according to the customer’s requirement. The machine is capable to be configured to process both large and small sized parts with no difficulties for the operator. A rich choice of accessories and configurations makes the machine capable of processing the widest array of pieces. The customer can fulfill any type of requirement coming from the market.

The division of the worktable into multiple vacuum areas is recommended for processing of panels with dimensions which are smaller than the entire worktable. The individual areas are chosen manually by the operator using an information system which allows the areas to be opened or closed.  The operator also has the possibility to activate an automatism, where the machine autonomously selects the vacuum area(s) containing the dimensions of the piece.

Worktable Divided in 6 Vacuum Areas (12xx

The perfect solution for small-sized offcuts machining. The minimum surface connected to the vacuum approximately corresponds to:

• X = 1/2 of the working area
• Y = 1/3 of the working area

Manual or automatic selection of the areas according to work piece dimension. For machines with aluminum worktable.

Peripheral Working Areas

Each working area consists of one (1) reference stop on the side (left or right dependent on the area) with 90mm vertical stroke. According to the frame size the stops along the X direction can vary in quantity:

• Worktable xx24 = Three (3)
• Worktable xx31 and xx36 = Four (4)
• Worktable xx43 = Five (5)

Each stop has a vertical stroke of 30mm and contains an M6 female thread on top to install optional pin height extenders.

A single area allows the machining of a single piece at a time. The stops can be activated from the control console.

Rear External Area - LEFT - "A"

ON-OFF Workpieces Outfeed Pusher

Automatic unloading device which allows the following operations:

• Unloading of the worked pieces on the table side
• Direct positioning on the spoil board
• Spoil board cleaning by means of integrated suction and blower

It consists of a rigid rake (pusher) which touches the spoil board when enabled so to avoid any adjustment once switching to different panel thickness. Additional features:

• Allows the mobile unit to properly push the cut parts – even thin ones – towards the offloading station
• Dust and chips on the spoil board are properly evacuated (best hold down action, no discarded parts, and maximum safety on any successive panel) thanks to the adoption of blowers and a suction hood on the rake itself. The aspiration system is directly connected to the main dust extraction manifold on the machine, avoiding additional tubes on the aspiration system.

The operator gets the best flexibility of usage thanks the ability to associate the outfeed pusher with one of these devices:

• Automatic motorized outfeed belt (optional for a quick panel replacement on the worktable, no operator required to collect the parts during the unloading operation)
• Manual offloading with pushbutton command (optional for a space saving solution, operator required to collect part by part during the unloading operation)

Side Fences on the Worktable

Fences consist of two (2) pneumatic devices which restrict the ejection of pieces out of the worktable during the automatic offloading phase. This optional is strongly suggested once the machine is equipped as an automated nesting cell. Fences are not suitable to use as front/rear references.

• Fences vertical on-off stroke = 25m

Vacuum Pumps Positioning

 

Basic machine cell models:

• The vacuum pumps are always located on the base left side, in the area below the unloading belt, even if the belt isn't present
• Basic machine models without automation:
• With 15xx, 18xx, 22xx models and Rotary Vane vacuum pumps it is possible to accommodate up to 2 vacuum pumps below the machine base
• When the Sav€nergy is present, the vacuum pump is always positioned on the base left side
• When the number of pumps exceeds the quantity that can be installed under the base, they will always be positioned outside the base

Two (2) Vacuum Pumps for Total 600 m³/h 60 Hz

The vacuum hold-down system features two (2) 300 cubic meter/hour vacuum pumps. It offers the reliability of a substantial increase in vacuum power and allows the use of spoil boards for nesting full sheets.

Automatic Centralized Lubrication

The correct grease application on the machine’s moving parts is always maintained by means of an electronic control (X-Y-Z axes). The NC managed grease pump ensures that mechanical components on displacement axes (sliding supports, racks, pinions, recirculating ball screw etc.) are properly lubricated according to a pre-programmed interval of time. Standard maintenance operations are allowed with this device.

An alarm signal will be also provided once the pump runs out of lubricant to allow the operator to intervene for a full refill.

Remote Machine Control

This ergonomic device is used by the operator to carry out the main commands of the machine without being tied to the main console. Thanks to this device it is possible to approach the machine and command the main X-Y-Z axes in a semi-automatic modality, enable/disable drilling spindles, set feeding speed, etc.

It’s also very effective for “dry-run” checking machining operations. Use the remote control during simulated cycles so to double check the programming before launching an automatic production cycle.
