Motorized Milling Spindles

Share  | 

Motorized milling spindles are widely used today in all mill centers for heavy duty milling. There are some special designed motorized spindles, solely used for hard core milling while there are other motorized spindles used in all types of machine tool applications including milling, turning, drilling, turning etc. The use of motor-driven milling spindles are convenient compared to the gear driven or belt driven spindles in most cases and they are highly recommended for maximum milling performance and flexibility. The high maximum speeds offered by the motor ensure optimum and economical machining from the small to the large workpiece. They are suitable for both rough cutting and precise finish cutting.

Features of motorized milling spindles

• A basic feature of this type of spindle is that it can help in reducing the cycle time

• considerably especially in complete machining in a single clamping setup.

• This type of spindle is also available with multifunctional unit for turning, drilling and milling.

• The spindle also has connection with automatic tool change providing functionality and flexibility.

• The motorized spindles ensure machining of a wide range of workpieces without changeovers.

• Integrated motor design eliminates the problems of gears and pulleys.

• The rotary motion in such spindles is accomplished by means of a torque motor as direct drive.

• High speed milling.

• High overall rigidity.
