NVD4000 DCG Provides Surface Finishes in Die and Mold Applications

     

Utilizing the company's vertical machining center as the foundation, Mori Seiki has created a machine for die and mold applications, the NVD4000 DCG.

     

"Introduced by Mori Seiki in 2003, DCG (Driven at the Center of Gravity) technology provides optimal finish, making it a natural choice for die and mold manufacturers. The NVD4000 DCG contains features to speed up program processing, make machine movement smoother and help provide higher levels of precision," stated a spokesperson.

     

In machines using DCG, the net driving force acts through the center of each axis. The NVD4000 DCG contains five ballscrews - two on the Y-axis, two on the Z-axis, and one on the X-axis - that enable a reduction in vibration. The new NVD4000 DCG only incorporates twin ballscrews where they provide benefit, whereas placing dual ballscrews in all three axes can reduce the overall dynamic response of the machine.

     

The features of the NVD4000 DCG are particularly beneficial to those running die and mold applications. An input increment of 0.1 microns offers improved resolution. To help raise accuracy in constant running applications, all three axes contain direct scale feedback, and dynamic thermal displacement control is provided for the spindle. A DataServer stores large part programs and quickly transfers them to the NC control during cutting.

     

The NVD4000 DCG's ATC tool-changing-time of 2.8 seconds chip-to-chip, 1.0 seconds tool-to-tool, quickly serves the 27.6" x 17.7" work table. The machine's 40-taper spindle is 12,000 rpm (20,000 rpm optional) and 25 hp (10-min. rating) capable. A center-trough design evacuates chips.
