A simple, user-friendly machining cell has five machining modules mounted on the same frame, which combines the high productivity of parts within a 300mm3 cube with excellent flexibility.

The Vertiflex 300 machine is a simple and user friendly Flexible Machining Cell, suitable for the production of medium volume parts which can fit into a 300mm cube with minimum set-up times and reduced cost per piece. The machine is the result of the combination of more machining modules, horizontal (up to five) and vertical (up to three), mounted on a single frame; parts with five and more faces and of any shape or material are machined completely in one chucking to assure high quality finished products. Vertiflex is a reliable machine, manufactured in more than 100 pieces, installed all over the word.

Vertiflex 300 modular design allows for the investment flexibility; it offers the users the possibility to start with a basic configuration of three machining modules and expand at a later time with production growth.

Vertiflex 300's major features are as follows.

* Machining modules equipped with 7,5kW electro-spindles running at 6.000 rev/min, with linear roller guides on X and Y axes to grant high rapid speed, with optimum rigidity and precision.

* CNC rotary table for maximum reliability and minimum indexing time.

Independent CNC satellite worktables, available with indexing of 360 or 360,000 positions.

* automatic tool change with CNC operated six-spindle turret head with 1s chip-to-chip time.

* Hermetically enclosed work-area that allows for use of a large quantity of coolant, reduces noise level, avoids pollution of outside environment.

* Compact construction minimizing floor space requirement, without special foundations.

* Ergonomic loading/unloading station with automatic door.
