BX900 Swivel Head Machines
BX900 5 Axis Rotating Swivel Head Milling Machines by Pinnacle offer the latest and most versatile 5 axis technology in the market.
Turning Option
The BX900 machine can be specified as a BX900T which incorporates a turning function into the machine capability. This allows the user to lock the spindle and use the the rotary table up to speeds of 1200rpm to turn parts. The results are incredible and really show the versatility of this fantastic machine.
Embedded Rotary Table
The machine has the option of a fully embedded rotary table which is centrally located for optimal machining capability.
Swivel Milling Head
BX900 Rotating Swivel Head Milling Machines allow the user to simplify setup and production of complex multi-sided parts due to the enormous amount of flexibility of the rotating spindle head and rotary table working simultaneously together.
Proven in some of the most demanding applications, the BX machine is a revolution in 5 axis machining capability.
Rigid Structure on the BX900 5 Axis Rotating Swivel Head Milling Machines
Designed by Pinnacle, the BX900 and BX900T Swivel Head Milling Machines incorporate a high rigidity structure and a wide working range, the main structural components of the machine are cast from high quality Meehanite cast iron which is tempered for stress relief and over HB190 hardness to ensure deformation free performance throughout the lifespan of the machine.
Choose your Controller
You can select from a range of control systems to suit your requirements, as standard the machines are supplied with the latest Heidenhan TNC640 control system, however Siemens and Fanuc control systems are also available on the BX700 and BX500 Rotating Swivel Head Milling Machines
Features
- Powerful 5 axis machining centre
- Can be specified with turning function
- Fast and contour accurate motion guide
- High-quality surface finishing
- Improved machining time
BX900/BX900T
High precision 5 axis machining centre with rotating spindle head, the range also benefits from a direct drive motor on the rotary table, helping to increase productivity from this market leading machine.
B-AXIS-SWIVEL MILLING HEAD
Hi-Speed, Hi-Power, Hi-Torque, Built-in Spindle 15000 rpm, swivels ±120°
Unique B Axis Design
The transmission mechanism of B axis for model BX900/ BX900T incorporates a servo motor direct drive, which offers exceptional accuracy. In addition to the smooth and powerful torque, the direct drive system features higher rotational speed, improved servo response times, zero backlash, and outstanding dynamic accuracy for the optimum workpiece surface finish.
Advanced Cooling System
The external cooling system efficiently minimises the structural thermo deformation and further improves accuracy. The cooling system also assists to ensure the output torque is stable as the temperature is constantly kept in a low and consistent level.
Incredible Accuracy
The B axis shaft is fitted with an angular positional encoder to improve positioning accuracy of the B axis.
The Integrated direct drive motor of the B and C axis increases the overall machine accuracy as well as ensuring the machine is highly efficient throughout all movements.
By upgrading to the Pinnacle BX Machines you can improve your machine cutting time due to its ability to machine so many different angles without changing the set up.
Cost effective and highly reliable 5 Axis Machining.
BX900 / BX900T are high speed, high accuracy and equipped with Heidenhain TNC640 control systems to offer simultaneous 5-axis Machining. Equipped with a 15000rpm built-in spindle and B-axis swivel head ±120°, as well as a C-axis Ø800mm rotary table (Built-in DD C-axis) to optimise machining space and allows complex workpieces to be finished in just one setup and reduces cycle time.
