Optimisation Solutions

Zero Fit Holder When a machine tool has been in operation for 2~3 years, the run-out accuracy of the spindle can decline. The NIKKEN Zero Fit Holder allows correction of any such error back to the “as-new” run-out of 0.001~0.002mm. Without the Zero Fit Holder, typical run-out, particularly with extended length protrusions, can be in the region of 21 microns - when this is reduced to 3 microns, the tool life can be improved by approximately 5 times.

Tech Hub: Zero Fit Holder

V-Ex Vacuum Extractor

V-EX Vacuum Extractor

The cost-effective solution to efficient in-process waste extraction.

Machining non-metallic materials gernerates a lot of waste by- product and dust. These potentially abrasive particles accelerate the wear of machine tool components, and create a health risk through dust inhalation.

Extracting these particales prolongs machine tool life and ensures compliance with health and safety regulatons.

Existing extraction solutions, however, can add up to 10% to the cost of a new machining centre, detering manufacturers from entering the market for machining materials like composites, plastics and foams, which produce a large amount of dust.

To address the problem, NIKKEN has devolped an innovative, low-cost vacuum extraction system that can be retrofitted to any machinining centre. With no need for a power supply and no moving parts, the V-Ex is suitable for both wet and dry cutting conditions. With the ability to handle many different particle types and sizes, including conductive dusts, this makes V-EX is a perfect low-cost solution for any non-metallic machining operation.

FEATURES

■ A cost effective, retrofittable solution to dust and particle removal for new and existing machining centres. ■ Significantly reduces damage and wear caused by abrasive waste materials.

■ Suitable for both wet and dry cutting applications. ■ Addresses health risks posed by dust inhalation. ■ Promotes a smooth cutting operation by removing waste from the cutting zone. ■ Requires only an air supply, and can be coupled to many existing extraction systems.

Insight into superior consruction

CNC Rotary Tables

NIKKEN I/O NIKKEN IO ensures your Rotary Table performs optimally, producing quality parts repeatably and reliably, as is expected with all NIKKEN products. With 24/7 monitoring and real-time performance data available at any time of the day, through either an app or desktop device, NIKKEN IO provides manufacturers with valuable data such as uptime, usage, 3 phase current and collision detection. Live notifications allow manufacturers the opportunity to quickly eliminate unnecessary costs produced from table neglect, collisions, power failures and more.

NIKKEN IO is ideal for manufacturers seeking a sustainable manufacturing process whilst alleviating machine downtime and scrap material.

HOW I/O WORKS

1. Sensors inside the rotary table collect and process real-time data during usual production processes. 2. Key snapshots of information are uploaded to a centralised database for storage and further analysis. 3. The NIKKEN I/O web-based dashboard then provides rich, customisable data visuals with an at a glance flagging system, so you can ensure that your investments are performing at their optimal capability. 4. Scheduled alerts and updates can deliver up-to-date information directly into your mail inbox, highlighting any important information.

Direct Drive

NIKKEN Direct Drive Rotary Tables are simple and accurate. Direct Drive tables feature no mechanical reduction mechanism such as the worm system within a standard rotary table.

Direct Drive Rotary Tables have the motor effectively ‘built-in’ to the rotary table body directly driving the axes and faceplate.

The tables provide extremely high rotation speeds with high acceleration and deceleration. The only limit is the driving torque of the motor! The application needs to be considered but NIKKEN Direct Drive Rotary Tables are suitable for numerous applications where complicated forms and shapes can be ma- chined effectively and quickly.

Tool Presetters

Principles of Presetting The measuring of individual tools and assemblies is a necessity for the effective operation of a machine tool and its tooling. All CNC Machines, and to some degree, manual machines require offset values or references for the length & diameter of each tool. Historically, the normal practise has been to establish tool offsets and references on the machine tool using various methods - the component/fixture, some form of gauge or a probe/laser. Machine tools earn money by cutting metal and producing parts, not measuring tool holders and assemblies. Therefore, it is therefore essential, in a modern production facility, to consider a dedicated presetting machine.

Tool Presetters

TP32

TP32 is a complete 360 degree solution, developed to provide an all-round tool and stock control system for manufacturers and machine shops. TP32 meets the demands for businesses requiring a system capable of managing tool holders, cutting tools, spare parts, inserts, consumables and all associated data and in- formation.TP32 is a program which is fundamentally dedicated to the management of the tool repository, which is woven in as a fundamental component of the productive cycle. As such, the data is inserted and managed within a system which allows all infor- mation to be accessible to all members across the manufacturing process and presented in the simplest and most straight forward and useable manner.

Through TP32, it is possible to have the stock repository under full control both as a management solution and also to the teams responsible for the composition and assembly of the individual components. In this way, everyone has all the necessary information that is required for effective production (component avail- ability, assembly verification, etc.) including going as far as individual part and assembly administration (stock values, ordering replenishments from suppliers, e.t.c).

TiD

Tool ID allows you to manage and control tool identification and geometrical data seamlessly. TiD uses a handheld scanner at the presetter to scan and read a data matrix tag (similar to a QR code) located on the tool assembly. A similar scanner is located at the machine tool connected to either a Windows PC or touchscreen console on which the TiD software is also running. This process allows the tool data (measured or theoretical) to remain centralized within the TiD database and is transferred from the presetter directly into the tool table on the respective machine tool.

The intuitive graphical interface within TiD allows configuration of the format and the mapping for the data required for the tool identification.

FAQ

How often should I service my NIKKEN Rotary Table / Tool Presetter? It is recommended that the Tool presetters are serviced & calibrated annually, whereas we recommend that rotary tables are serviced annually based on a 37.5hr working week. We do recommend shorter service intervals if they are being used more often. What are the benefits of having my units serviced? Having your units serviced frequently maintains accuracy and repeatability, reduction of downtime, reduction of costly repairs, increased productivity and meeting of ISO quality standards. What are the risks of not having my units serviced? Research shows that 54% of gearbox failures are due to inadequate / contaminated lubrication, while over 40% of cable failures are due to damage / moisture in the environment. Given the harsh conditions rotary tables are put under, having them serviced annually is an essential part of a preventative maintenance schedule. How long does a rotary table service take to complete? On average a rotary table service takes approximately 2-3 hours to complete. This can vary slightly depending on whether the unit is a 4th or 5th axis and its general condition and prior service history. How long does a presetter calibration take to complete? A typical presetter calibration usually takes 2-3 hours. On completion a pass certificate is then issued to the customer to update their ISO records. The pass certificate shows all tolerances and includes all measurements taken during the calibration. How do I book a service for my NIKKEN Rotary Table / Presetter?
