The basis of precision.

Many factors play a role in achieving a certain workpiece accuracy. On the one hand, there are the machines themselves. The type, components and software all have an influence on the machining result. However, there are also many accompanying factors to consider, from the location of the machine to measuring equipment, clamping devices and tools through to the qualifications of the employees.

Accuracy of HEDELIUS machining centres

Sophisticated type.

Designed as universal machining centres for a wide range of applications in machine and tool construction, HEDELIUS places great weight on stability and accuracy during the design phase. The result of this process was the special HEDELIUS type with the constantly cantilevered Y-axis and the resulting high rigidity and precision over the entire travel range of the Y-axis and Z-axis.

In-house production.

Critical assemblies such as travelling columns, beds and rotating/swivelling table units are manufactured and measured in-house at HEDELIUS. As a result, we not only always keep an eye on quality, but also recognise the possibilities and limits of modern chipping in day-to-day use. This process knowledge flows permanently into improving our products and advising our customers.

Guides and straightness.

HEDELIUS uses pre-aligned roller guides from German and Swiss manufacturers. At the end of assembly, the positioning precision, repeat precision, straightness and backlash of the linear axes are finally checked and documented using a laser interferometer. The positioning accuracy of the linear axes in accordance with ISO 230-2 is regularly less than 6 µm.

IT6 circular accuracy.

The Renishaw circularity test has established itself as a test method for the accuracy of machining centres. The measurement provides information on the interaction between two linear axes and the accuracy of a circular movement. The slip-stick-free roller guides in combination with direct path measuring systems and high angular accuracy enable the milling of fits in a quality of IT6, which reduces production times and the number of spindle tools required.

Measuring systems on round axes.

The accuracy of the measuring systems has a significant influence on the angularity and parallelism of surfaces and bores. HEDELIUS uses direct angle encoders in the centre of each rotational axis in the integrated rotary tables, the swivel spindle drives and the rotating/swivelling table units. As an option, laser-based angle measurement devices measure the positioning accuracy of rotational axes with a resolution of ±1" and calibrate the axes for maximum positioning accuracy.

Long-term precision.

HEDELIUS only uses direct linear measurement devices for position detection of the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis. This means that the position control loop encompasses the entire feed mechanism. This is referred to as "closed loop" operation. Transmission errors in the mechanics can thus be detected by the linear measurement device on the feed axis and corrected by the control electronics.

Temperature compensation.

HEDELIUS equips its machining centres with spindle coolers to dissipate the heat generated in the milling spindle. The cooling system already achieves increased thermal stability as standard. However, as not all of the heat can be dissipated by the spindle cooling, HEDELIUS optionally installs temperature sensors on the spindle, travelling column and, in some cases, on the rotary axes in order to compensate for structural displacements via the control system.

Choose your CNC control system.

What is usually considered special accessories is standard at HEDELIUS: All machining centres are equipped with a CNC full keyboard, colour monitor, spindle feed overdrive and original software as standard. State-of-the-art control technology from SIEMENS or HEIDENHAIN guarantees maximum operating convenience and unrestricted functionality. You decide which system you want to work with.

Automate your machining centre.

More productivity, higher delivery reliability, less stress on employees: there are many good reasons for automating production. HEDELIUS machining centres can be optimally automated. The automation is often attached to the side of the machine. Loading from the side means that the work area remains fully available for set-up and control work, but also, for example, for single part production during the day shift. Even crane loading of the machine is possible without restrictions. Another advantage (depending on the selected automation) is the visibility of the work area and thus optimised process control during set-up on the automation. At the same time, this solution requires little depth and can be easily integrated into an existing production line.

Chip press

chip press

The chip press separates the chips from the cooling lubricants and compresses them into clean, manageable briquettes. For example, 300 litres of chips can be compressed into a few dozen briquettes. This corresponds to a volume reduction of approx. 80 %.

Even more performance with high-pressure coolant systems.

A significant increase in performance is achieved through the use of high-pressure coolant systems. In this process, the coolant is fed through the work spindle directly to the cutting edges of the tool. The separate inclined bed belt filter Coolant system incl. automatic paper feed and fill level monitoring for chipping steel, grey cast iron and aluminium. Fine chips can be filtered out in advance using a pre-filter. A duplex filter is integrated into the coolant return to protect the rotary seal. The frequency converter enables infinitely variable pressure regulation in the NC programme.

3D measuring sensors, tool measurement sensors and tool lasers can be used for various applications, such as preparatory, regulating or monitoring measurement. During preparatory measurement, workpiece dimensions, angular errors or clamping errors are determined. While control measurement automatically reacts to material problems, system-related process deviations and unplanned events to ensure that the process is as successful as possible, monitoring measurement logs the machining result.
