DN Solutions Offers Compact Five-Axis VMC
The company’s DVF Series comprises compact five-axis CNC machines that are designed for diverse five-sided or simultaneous five-axis applications.
DN Solutions introduces the DVF 4000, a smaller version of the company’s DVF family of vertical five-axis machining centers. The DVF Series comprises compact five-axis CNC machines that are designed for diverse five-sided or simultaneous five-axis applications.
The DVF 4000 comes standard with a 15,000 rpm direct coupled spindle, powered by a 24.8 hp (18.5 kW) motor that generates 87.1 ft-lbs (118 Nm) of torque. A FANUC 31i-B5 Plus control makes full five-axis simultaneous control possible, giving complete contouring capabilities. It features a 400-mm-diameter, built-in rotary table with a zero-backlash roller gear cam design for optimal rigidity and speed. The rotary table is designed for ease of use and consummate work efficiency, minimizing interference as the part is machined. An eight- or twelve-pallet auto work changer provides additional productivity via unattended machining.
Each DVF Series machine comes equipped with a 40-tool servo-driven automatic tool changer, giving more tooling to tackle complex parts that have varying profiles. For more versatility, 60- and 120-tool magazines are also available. The oil-cooled spindle controls heat to minimize thermal issues. A Z-axis thermal compensation feature collects real-time data from six sensors throughout the machine to automatically calculate compensation.
The DVF Series also incorporates roller LM guideways for speed and added rigidity. The machines are equipped with linear scales on the X, Y and Z axes and rotary scales on the B and C axes for the most accurate positioning and repeatability.
“If you are using a three-axis vertical with a retrofitted rotary table to avoid multiple operations or setups, the DVF 4000 provides a cost effective, purpose-built alternative that was carefully designed from the ground up for maximum productivity,” says Andy McNamara, vice president of marketing and sales at DN Solutions America. “Their compact footprint also enables installation in smaller shops where floor space is limited or comes at a premium.”
