The use of linear rails on machining centres has been common for many years, as they allow users to take advantage of improvements in digital motion control and modern cutting tool performance, therefore maximising their competitiveness. Now, with the latest design advances in linear rail technology, XYZ Machine Tools feel that they meet its own stringent performance standards, while still providing a cost advantage and the arrival of the three machine XYZ LR range is the result.
The XYZ Linear rail series of vertical machining centres showcases the XYZ 1000 LR which has an impressive specification, including 1000 mm of travel in the X-axis and 500 mm in both the Y and Z axes. It shares the same 13 kW, 8000 rpm, BT 40 spindle with the other machines in the range as well as the standard 20 position tool carousel. It also has the option of a 24 station arm-type tool changer. The recent development in linear rail technology now means that XYZ can deliver a machine of this size to a very competitive price/performance ratio. Demonstrations of XYZ’s linear rail machines are available at any of the XYZ showrooms.
