Servoturn 500/1500

• The combination of a tried and tested machine base with the most advanced feed technology makes the change to a servo-conventional lathe even more attractive and cost-effective

Intuitive operation as we know it from conventional machines - only much better:

• Feed and thread leads can be selected via rotary switch - what a brilliant concept
• Stops can be set electronically with the push of a button
• Feeds are infinitely variable via override potentiometer - finally available on a conventional lathe
• Micro-control via electronic hand-wheels - but handling and positioning just as with a conventional machine
• Axes are powered by high-quality servo drives that translate your hand movements with the precision and dynamics of modern CNC machines
• Infinitely variable speed adjustment and constant cutting speed of headstock
• Constant cutting speed: During face turning, the spindle speed automatically adapts to the changing workpiece diameter – the constant cutting speed at the cutting edge of the turning tool ensures superior turning results with quality comparable to CNC lathes

Machine Frame

• Heavy ribbed machine bed with wide, hardened bed guides and V-blocks allow for heavy-duty machining
• Headstock and main spindle are designed for optimum rigidity, vibration damping and temperature balance
• This entire series also features large spindle bores
• A quick-action tool changer is included in the standard package and ensures maximum flexibility and productivity

Feed

• Ball screws on the X- and Z-axes ensure considerably fewer errors due to looseness (backlash), resulting in significantly higher precision

Equipment

• The low-maintenance machine is equipped with a central lubrication system
• The heavy-duty tailstock is easy to handle and features high clamping force
• Incl. 3-axis position indicator with integrated spindle speed display, fully assembled
• The Servoturn 500 standard equipment package includes a quick-change tool holder set type WB, and the Servoturn 660 models come with the larger type WC tool holder set
