Fuji Releases New PBS-300TT Twin Turret Chucker

"Now available from Fuji, the PBS-300TT Twin Turret Chucker performs medium to high volume production with short cycle times," said a spokesperson. "Featuring 4-axis simultaneous ID/OD diameter rough and finish turning, the PBS-300TT provides about a 38 percent reduction in process cycle time. The rigid box way construction of this chucker ensures superior spindle output.

"Equipped with Fuji's own high-speed 3-axis dual hand gantry robot, the PBS-300TT provides work piece loading and unloading efficiency. Robot carrying capacity of this Fuji's Chucker is 6.6 lbs. + 6.6 lbs., conveying diameters up to 7 X 4.7 inch length. The PBS-300TT comes with Fuji's SP1 Max Robot Controller for faster and smoother simultaneous multi-axis movement to access the front, back, left and right of the traverse axis."

A Fanuc 320i-A CNC Control is standard with 5-place decimal positioning control (English); 4-place metric is also included.

"The PBS-300TT operates at a maximum spindle speed of 3,000 RPM and generates 20 HP at the spindle motor," said the spokesperson. "The turret head features a curvic coupling. For improved chip flow, the machining position of the PBS-300TT is located directly above a large chip receptacle at the bottom of the machine. Chips drop straight down from the cutting zone onto the Fuji built chip conveyor.

"The PBS-300TT is suitable for machining flanges, hubs, gear blanks, inner rings, outer rings and more.

"The compact footprint 4-feet 11-inch W x 6-feet 7-inch D x 10-feet H of the PBS-300TT allows for easy integration into most shop environments."
