Spindle machining unit visualizes cycles for programming

Suhner offers the BEA 16 spindle machining unit with new servo drive and control technology from Bosch Rexroth. Software allows the user to program six different basic cycles (drilling, combined drilling, thread cutting, drilling with chip removal, drilling with jump function, and undercutting) visually, so no prior knowledge of CNC is required.

If the required machining cycle cannot be found among the standard selections or is more complex, the unit can be switched to sentence programming.

The unit is designed for continuous use in multiple-shift operations. Maximum feed path is 5.51 in., and maximum speed is 500 RPM.
