High precision turning

Three new lathes launched

September 2010

Three new multi-axis mill-turning centers from Star Micronics will make their world premieres at the AMB show. Until now a manufacturer of exclusively sliding-head lathes, the company will introduce its first fixed-headstock bar automatic – the SG-42.

With the SF 25, Star increases the possibilities of machining complex parts on a sliding head.

SB-20C - New level of competitiveness The latest model in the popular SB range of Star sliding-headstock lathe will be launched. Designated SB-20C, the 20 mm bar machine replaces the SB-16E, in common with which it offers 35 m/min rapids to guarantee short non-cutting times. With additional power to the driven tools, the machine is an ideal early-entry machine capable of manufacturing components of medium complexity. SF-25 - Increasing capacities to machine complex parts Intended for manufacturing complex medical, aerospace and automotive components, the SF-25 is a compact, 25 mm capacity sliding-head turning centre from Star Micronics. The machine is equipped with a 10-station turret and an additional tool spindle complete with 24-station automatic tool changer. The tool spindle is capable of accepting Capto C3 tooling and is driven by a 5.5 kW / 20,000 rpm motor, facilitating reduced cycle times when producing complex mill-turned components.

SG-42 - fixed headstock to reach new possibilities Intended for the manufacture of complex components up to 42mm diameter, the 6-axis machine is driven by an 11kW main spindle motor and features C axis on both main and counter spindles as standard. The 5 kW power of the driven tool motor enables both heavy duty milling and drilling operations to be carried out at either spindle.

To be seen at AMB from 28.09 to 2.10 in Stuttgart, Halle 3, booth C78 and at Prodex from November 16 to 20 in Basle, Halle 1.0, booth B15 STAR MICRONICS AG Lauetstrasse 3 CH-8112 Otelfingen Tel. + 41 (0)43 411 60 69 Fax + 41 (0)43 411 60 66 www.starmicronics.ch [email protected]
