Face Milling & Centring Machine, Double Ended

Microtech Machines offers a tooled up, double ended Face Milling and Centring Machine. This is assembled on rugged box type fabricated design with integrated main guideway to ensure high rigidity, ground and scraped to maintain the accuracy of centring at both ends on same axis. The machine has two vice slides clamped on main guideway which can be taken near to the milling head as required. The work piece is clamped in self-centring vice having hardened and ground V block jaws with three-point contact. The vice slides on hardened and ground guide ways. The work piece is loaded on adjustable V plate before butting against adjustable end locator to ensure pre calculated depth of cut from one end. Work piece clamping is achieved by hydraulic motor. The milling and centring spindle unit is assembled on cross slide and driven by electric motor. The spindles are supported by two taper roller bearings at both ends. The centring spindle, quill hard chrome plated and ground, moves in housing which is fitted with a guide bush for long life. Face milling operation at both ends is achieved simultaneously by cross milling slide operated by a hydraulic cylinder which has infinitely variable feed control valve. The cycle operates principally on fast approach, slow feed and rapid return basis. Standard features include tooled up machine, complete hydraulic system, complete electric control panel with PLC unit, and complete coolant unit. Optional features are chip conveyor, VFD drive for spindle, auto lubrication unit, job inspection gauges, maintenance spares, etc. Applications: jobs which require face milling and centring, useful to aerospace, agricultural equipment, air conditioning, automotive gears, shaft live components, electric motor, railway and many more industries.
