table drive unit: urdh 3i
Precitec offers various kinds of table drive unit suitable for plano-milling machine starting from a simple gearbox-motor reduction drive with fixed feed rate to servo drive arrangement for table drive. This is decided based on kind of machine, application and cost affordability. We have offered you model urdh 3 I this drive system will consist of following main components: with this arrangement you can have both planning and plano-milling operations being done on the machine.
ac motor and gear box assembly: this will have an force cooled ac induction motor (7.5-hp-) of reputed make. This helps in proper heat dissipation when motor is working continuously at low rpm,s. The motor will drive the input shaft of a reduction gear box directly or through a slip free suitable timer belt drive provided based on the machine.
output drive and clutch assembly: based on the machine and total reduction required at the output we will provide either a direct drive to the input shaft of the machine drive gearbox or provide an sprocket and chain drive. The driven sprocket/coupling will be mounted on the main drive input shaft on the planer. For this necessary changes/ modification on the input shaft will have to be done by the customer. If it is to be permanently converted into a plano-miller than we will remove the existing planer motor drive and provide drive from our reduction drive unit in lieu of the same. However if customer wants to retain the planning mode also for occasional planning than we will provide with an electro magnetic clutch (optional) on the input shaft of the planer. This has been offered separately.
controls: complete control system for the plano-milling operations will be provided. The controls will include controls for spindle and table feed and necessary interlocks.
all the required controls will be housed in a separate electrical cabinet placed on floor near to the place where reduction drive unit is fixed. All the elements used like mcb’s, contactors, cables etc for the control system will be of standard reputed makes easily available in india like siemens/ l&t/ technic/ indo kopp etc.
sensor less vector drive will be provided for both spindle and table feed drive motor. The drives will be of reputed make like abb/danfoss/toshiba/control technique etc. The drives will have torque boost at lower rpm’s for steady performance.
as standard all the control switches will be placed on the cabinet top itself and the cabinet will be specially shaped so that the top will be a inclined to form the operator console also. Optionally we can also provide a separate pendant box in which case the operators control will be housed in a pendant box which will be suspended from the top of the machine next to the control pendant for planer. We recommend this option as operator can stand and control themachine from either side.
required controls for for/rev/stop rapid/feed selectors for table feed and similar start/stop and for/rev selector for spindle motor will be provided. The spindle rpm and table feed-rate will be adjustable easily using the potentiometer provided on the pendant of the machine. Also calibrated voltmeters giving the spindle and table feed rate will be provided on the pendant. Controls for selection of planer or plano-milling mode will also be provided.
All necessary interlocks and required sensors/limit switches etc will be provided. This include interlock for operation of planer motor only when clutch of plano-milling is  positively disengaged, table stroke limits, spindle rotation-table feed interlocks etc. complete required cabling material like cables, hoses, connectors etc for cabling from panel to pendant, motors, limit switches, clutch etc. as optional we can also provide ac servo induction motors and suitable drives for spindle and also for table drive on specific request as these provide better speed and feed range. In such a case the drive and motor will be of indramat/siemens/baldor etc. Based on customer preference.
electro-magnetic clutch: we offered this as an option. This is recommended when planning is to be retained on the machine and very frequent interchanging between planning and plano-milling mode is required. Without this chain will have to be disengaged from the sprocket to operate in planning mode.
We recommend strongly for taking this option for the ease of operation.
air-hydraulic clamping arrangement for cross slide
during longitudinal milling operation it is recommended that the carriage on the cross slide on which the head is fixed be clamped. This will make possible to use head to its true potential as clearance in the carriage jib will be eliminated and thus provide very high rigidity for machining. Presently a manual clamping arrangement is provided on the machine. However this has to be loosened and tightened back every time the head is moved in the cross direction.
Alternately we can provide a hydraulic clamping for the carriage so that it is automatically clamped when not being moved. This involves integration of the controls with the existing cross feed system on the machine. Also a separate airhydraulic clamping system with a hydraulic clamping cylinder for the head will be provided. Required hose arrangement for the cross movement of the clamping cylinder will also be provided by us. (required air connection/supply upto the airhydraulic intensifier to be provided by you). This is optional system we recommend considering you will have to frequently switch between milling in longitudinal direction and cross direction.
