Heavy-duty CNC machine for special requirements
Robust gantry allows a vibration-free operation of heavy equipment such a automatic oxyfuel triple torches, a 120° rotator with a 1.5 m stroke of Z-axis for cutting of 3D shapes and other custom equipment. Along with the full range of sheet and pipe cutting possibilities, DRM offers special applications on domes like trimming, separation cuts, cutting of diverse openings, weld edge preparation and cutting of domes placed upside down.
Features
- Broad range of processing possibilities – cutting of plates, pipes, profiles, beams and domes as well as several drilling and marking options
- Extremely robust and heavy gantry for toughest requirements
- Long-term reliability in single- and multi-shift operations
- Fully automatic and highly precise weld edge preparation with rotator and 3D rotator bevel tool stations with auto-calibration feature (ACTG®)
- Bevel cutting on sheets, pipes, profiles, beams and domes 3D rotator with a tilt up to 120° for cutting of 3D objects with both plasma and oxyfuel technologies
- Additional Beveling Process (ABP) – simple and reliable subsequent weld edge preparation via a laser scanning process
DRM machines can be delivered in a special version with a drilling table and a selection of powerful drilling heads with powers up to 55 kW that allow drilling up to Ø 60 mm and tapping up to M30. Optionally, its functionality can be extended to marking and a selected range of milling operations. The solution can also include a motorized brush and a sideways waste channel for removal of drilling chips. For a smooth and fast tool change, the machine can be equipped with a linear or a rotary tool magazine for up to 16 tools.
- Automatic processing of large tank ends with height up to 1,500 mm
- Trimming of domes, separation cuts, cutting of diverse openings and intersections
- Weld edge preparation across the whole dome surface
- Advanced dome scanning process
- Convenient creation of cutting programs from solid models in MicroStep’s 3D CAM software mCAM
MicroStep‘s mScan technology for precise cutting of domes sets new standards in dome processing. A 3D laser scanning process and a point cloud processing software are used to map the true shape of a particular dome. Advanced algorithms then allow the control system to adjust the movement of tool accordingly and compensate for possible deviations of the real dome from its ideal shape. Thus, contours and openings can be cut with an outstanding precision.
- Enhance your production range by adding a pipe and profile cutting option for processing of a wide range of pipe diameters including heavy pipes up to 12 t
- Convenient cutting program creation with MicroStep’s 2D and 3D CAM software
- High precision and dimensional accuracy reduce post-processing costs
- If required, the pipe cutting channel can be covered with additional grates and used as extension of the cutting table including sideways fume extraction
