Puma MX2100ST Turns and Mills in a Single Setup

"The Puma MX2100ST turn-mill adds true milling capabilities to a powerful Doosan Infracore turning center," said a spokesperson. "The new design provides unmatched flexibility within a complete spectrum of part geometries. From simple turning or milling to complex, simultaneous, multi-axis machining, complex parts can be produced on one machine in a single setup. The dual spindle, multi-tasking Puma MX2100ST is built for heavy and interrupted cuts, long-term accuracy and superior finishes.

"The 12-station turning-tool post is non-lifting to protect the coupling from chips and other contaminants and indexes station-to-station in a quick 0.2 seconds. Live or static tools can be mounted at any station, and oriented toward either the main or sub spindle. Live tools are powered by a 7.5 HP (15 min.) motor with a maximum speed of 5,000 RPM. The motor is built into the headstock casting, with its spindle fully encased in an oil cooling system. The beltless design eliminates backlash, feedback error and vibration, resulting in lower maintenance with superior precision and finish.

"A combined B-axis (tilting) and Y-axis milling spindle maximizes the number of geometries that can be machined without the need for custom rotary tool holders. The Puma MX2100ST can cut, drill or tap above or below the centerline, or mill flats and key-ways. It can machine angular features and provide a solid platform for heavy duty machining. The milling spindle is powered by a heavy-duty 25 Hp motor, and generates spindle speeds up to 12,000 RPM.

"Standard on the Puma MX is a floating 40-tool ATC, with a fixed 80 station ATC optional. Tool-to-tool change time is 1.8 seconds.

"The bed and guideways are of fine-grain Meehanite casting to absorb vibrations and inhibit twisting and thermal distortion. Consistent with all Puma machine tools, the bed's torque tube construction prevents twisting and distortion from heavy cuts and provides a generous, machine-long conduit for fresh air.

"Standard features are included to simplify machine operation. An alarm guidance system senses the main machining points and alerts the operator of potential problems before operation begins. Second, a machine-airbag function causes the carriage to reverse its movement the moment a collision occurs. This minimizes damage to the machine and to the part. And third, a periodic maintenance function alerts the operator to potential problems within the machine. This prevents unexpected and lengthy downtime while optimizing performance and productivity."
