AFFORDABLE STANDARD CMMS GAIN EXTRA ACCURACY Hall 19, Stand 540 Manufacturers wishing to inspect components machined to tight tolerances, but unwilling to invest in an expensive, ultrahigh-accuracy coordinate measuring machine (CMM), now have the option of selecting an ALTERA C HA (high accuracy) from LK Metrology. Available in five sizes, the largest 15.9.7 model will be exhibited on the company’s stand at MACH 2024. The ceramic-bridge machines are constructed from the same component parts as the standard ALTERA C range, but are optimised during build at the company’s Derbyshire production facility to deliver 16 percent higher accuracy during a measuring cycle, with 13 percent better repeatability and 50 percent more accurate scanning. When implementing design improvements to the ALTERA C HA, particular attention was paid to upgrading the moving bridge. The spread of the air bearings supporting the main drive leg has been widened to increase the stiffness of the bridge assembly by 17 percent overall, which is particularly beneficial during high-speed movements. Advantages to the user are considerable, as measuring uncertainty when chasing tolerances down to microns is significantly better. For the same reason, the bearing mountings have been further stiffened and their alignment improved. Due to the increased dynamic forces in play when measuring on the fly, the new design is especially helpful when using a scanning probe. New on show also at MACH 2024 will be LK’s own CMM laser scanning probe, SLK25 VIVID, and the TSR-5 tool change and storage rack, both of which are affordable solutions, as well as automation with a collaborative robot, and a second-generation LK FREEDOM arm with L100 VIVID laser scanner. Additionally there will be a standard ALTERA C CMM, the latest version of LK’s CAMIO programming, analysis and reporting software, including the popular module for automated inspection of gears, and the LK FREEDOM rotary index table that speeds inspection of parts using an articulated arm, raising metrology productivity. Industry-leading third-party hardware and software will also be in evidence on the stand. www.LKmetrology.com ZAYER XIOS G MT MACHINE WILL BE SHOWCASED Hall 19 - Stand 110 Large ZAYER 6-axis multi-tasking machine set to stun MACH 2024 visitors with its size, power, speed and versatility. A large-capacity ZAYER machine tool is one of the biggest machines Mills CNC has ever showcased at a MACH Show. Company is confident that the ZAYER XIOS G MT, a 6-axis multi-tasking machine with integrated turning capabilities, will pull in visitors looking for an innovative and exceptional large component machining solution at this year’s event. Mills CNC, the exclusive distributor of DN Solutions’ and Zayer machine tools in the UK and Ireland, is exhibiting an advanced Zayer XIOS G MT 6-axis multitasking machine on its stand at MACH 2024 (HALL 19 – Stand 110). The machine, one of 16 being showcased by Mills CNC, is making its UK debut at the event and will, according to company sources “not only prove to be a highlight of Mills’ stand but of the whole show itself.” “The XIOS G MT is a big mill-turn machine”, say Tony Dale, Mills CNC’s CEO. “To appreciate its size – simply visit Mills stand: you literally can’t miss it.” The XIOS G MT is one in a range of Zayer multi-tasking bed mills now available from Mills CNC. The machine on show at MACH 2024 has large X-, Y- and Z-axis travels (4000mm x 1600mm x 2000mm), and a sizeable worktable (2000mm x 2000mm) with a 12,000kg maximum table load that makes it ideal for machining big and heavy components for the aerospace, automotive, rail, energy, oil and gas sectors, as well as for large mould tool applications. Machining flexibility is also ensured by the integration of a 1500mm x 1500mm builtin rotary table, a powerful 40kW/6000rpm spindle a 5-axis/45-degree milling head and a generous -sized tool changer (up to 80 tools). Despite its size, the XIOS G MT is fast and accurate boasting 35m/min rapids on its X-, Y- and Z-axes, and positional and repeatable accuracies of 0.008mm and 0.005mm respectively. Although being showcased with a 45- degree head (360,000 positions), the machine can be supplied with different head configurations (i.e. 30-degree head or an electro-spindle 33kW/18,000rpm option) and a range of software apps (developed inhouse by Zayer) to increase the machine’s potential and appeal. Says Tony Dale: “The Zayer XIOS G MT will, I am certain, prove popular with MACH show visitors and substantiates our out-of-this-world stand theme and concept.” www.millscnc.co.uk 26 Manufacturing Machinery World, April 2024
