The LX series was specifically designed for the high-precision, efficient five-axis machining of turbine blades. This ultra-modern machining platform is the result of decades of experience in the development of machine tools, CAM systems and special tools combined with our in-house expertise in the prototype and series production of turbine blades.
Maintenance friendly
Any component requiring periodic service are easy accessible
Replacement items e.g. filters, wipers etc are easy to access
Machine components require service are simply to access and repair
Safe working areas for maintenance personal e.g. platforms and attach point are provided
Condition based machine monitoring to predict future component failure
Opposed Spindle
Full subspindle
Horizontal / vertical
positioning / machining

identical to mainspindle
Highly dynamic rotary axes
The rotary axes are directly driven by state-of-the-art torque motors
Guarantees the most precise positioning
High torque even at low speed
Highest possible rigidity for maximum dynamics
Power transmission free of backlash and extended service intervals
No mechanical component wear
Driven tip station with controllable torque
Monitoring
Process analyses and stability evaluations can be made easily with integrated sensors and evaluation routines. Collision damage is significantly reduced thanks to rapid crash detection and machine stop. This is an excellent addition to Starrag’s simulation solutions to avoid expensive machine downtime. The balancing quality of all tools and the state of the spindle bearings are automatically monitored.
