Overview
The MX500-N50 High-Precision Whirling Machine is engineered for the precision manufacturing of small-module worms, planetary lead screws, and trapezoidal threads. It is specifically optimized to master high-hardness materials up to HRC 60±2 (such as alloy steel and stainless steel). By delivering a mirror-like surface finish of Ra ≤ 0.3μm directly from the milling process, it eliminates the need for secondary grinding. This model is the premier choice for automotive transmission systems, medical device components, and micro-actuators in consumer electronics.Advanced Motion Control & Full Closed-Loop System
- C-Axis (Spindle): Driven by a high-performance direct-drive motor and integrated with a precision grating system for full closed-loop control. This setup eliminates mechanical backlash, ensuring a rotational indexing accuracy of ±0.005mm.
- X & Z Axis Control: Utilizing precision linear components and high-response servo motors, the machine achieves a rapid feed speed of 8m/min. The full closed-loop feedback ensures absolute positioning for complex spiral trajectories.
- Intelligent Error Compensation: The integrated Syntec 220TA system features real-time online measurement and software compensation within ≤0.002mm, maintaining dimensional consistency even across massive production batches.
High-Rigidity Structural
- Integrated Hard Guideways: Built with heavy-duty, giant-scale hard rails, the frame offers superior vibration damping and structural rigidity.
- Robust Stability: with a vibration-free foundation, ensuring that precision is maintained during high-torque, high-speed operations.
Automated Clamping & Intelligent Thermal Management
- 1-to-8 Operator Ratio: Designed for maximum automation, a single operator can efficiently manage 5 to 8 machines simultaneously.
- S42 Hydraulic Clamping: ensures rapid and secure workpiece fixing, providing maximum rigidity near the cutting head.
- Precision Oil Cooling: An integrated oil cooler and 30μm high-precision filtration system maintain thermal equilibrium.
High-Performance Whirling Process
- Flexible Lead Control: The helix angle is adjustable from 0° to 30°, allowing for the production of a diverse range of planetary lead screws and automobile wiper worms.
- Exceptional Production Yield: With a cycle time as fast as 40 seconds per piece and a scrap rate kept below 0.5%.
