The company’s DVF Series comprises compact five-axis CNC machines that are designed for diverse five-sided or simultaneous five-axis applications.
DN Solutions DVF Series comprises compact five-axis CNC machines that are designed for diverse five-sided or simultaneous five-axis applications.
The DVF 4000 comes standard with a 15,000-rpm, direct-coupled spindle, powered by a 24.8 hp (18.5 kW) motor that generates 87.1 ft-lbs (118 Nm) of torque. A FANUC 31i-B5 Plus control makes full five-axis simultaneous control possible, giving complete contouring capabilities. It features a 400-mm-diameter, built-in rotary table with a zero-backlash roller gear cam design for optimal rigidity and speed. The rotary table is designed for ease of use and consummate work efficiency, minimizing interference as the part is machined. An eight- or twelve-pallet auto work changer provides additional productivity via unattended machining.
Each DVF Series machine comes equipped with a 40-tool, servo-driven automatic tool changer, giving more tooling to tackle complex parts that have varying profiles. For more versatility, 60- and 120-tool magazines are also available. The oil-cooled spindle controls heat to minimize thermal issues. A Z-axis thermal compensation feature collects real-time data from six sensors throughout the machine to automatically calculate compensation.
The DVF Series also incorporates roller LM guideways for speed and added rigidity. The machines are equipped with linear scales on the X, Y and Z axes and rotary scales on the B and C axes for the most accurate positioning and repeatability.
