C.R. Onsrud
High Productivity Options include:
24,000 or 30,000 rpm Spindles
Maintaining the proper chip load during high-speed machining is
crucial. The latest spindles from Onsrud cut at speeds up to 30,000
rpm to take full advantage of the time savings and increased accuracy
possible with todays fastest machines.
Extra
Rapid Traverse - 3600 ipm Rapids
High-pitch ballscrews combined with powerful brushless servomotors
provide rapids and cutting feed rates up to 4,750 ipm. This reduces
the amount of non-cutting time during machining especially
on repetitive parts and multiple fixtures resulting in
faster cycle times and reduced cost-per-part. Available on "Extreme Duty Series" twin table models, "Super Duty" rapids are 4,000 ipm and "Panel Pro" rapids are 2,000 ipm.
4th
and 5th Axis Options
A fully integrated 4th or 5th axis Onsrud C-Axis or
rotary table creates a supercharged machining center package that
boosts your productivity. Onsrud offers fully synchronized 4th
and 5th axis configurations.
24-Tool Option
With this expanded tool option, complicated parts and operations
like in-process inspection and lights-out manufacturing are much
easier to program.
Programmable
Coolant or Air Blast Nozzle
Programmable Coolant or Air Blast Nozzle provides a coolant or
air blast to the cutting tool to clear chips and/or cool the cutting
tool. Activated by M code, the air blast can be programmed to
turn on while the spindle is turning, or at the end of a cycle.
HSK Tool Holders
Standard on all Onsrud CNC Routers, HSK-63F Tool Holders have
5 times the holding power of the ISO-30 style. This
means less vibration, greater precision and longer life.
12 Position Automatic Tool Changers & Aggregate Heads
More tools, more workspace and faster tool changes: Weve
put these advantages together to increase your productivity and
reduce setup times.
Locating the
tool changer outside of the work envelope is a sure way to free
additional space while adding greater flexibility.
Combine this with the added bonus of greater tool capacity in
a flexible, high-productivity machining center like an Onsrud,
and youre ready to tackle the toughest of machining jobs, with larger diameter tools.
Onsrud-built side-mount tool changers feature rapid tool changes and when used in conjunction with macros, tool life management and
tool load monitoring, extra pockets can be dedicated to back-up
tooling for unattended operation.
Tool
Probe
The Onsrud tool probe option incorporates our easy-to-use tool
probe with macros. This optional package enables all Onsrud routers
to automatically define tool length offsets; and when combined
with macro programming, it allows operators to automatically update
tool offsets (length and diameter) and check for broken tools
while in-process.
The
Best Control in the Industry
Its something that Onsrud owners and operators have known
for years, but has been kept a closely guarded secret. Now the
words out. Industry professionals just like you are rating
the Onsrud control as the most user-friendly control theyve
worked with.
A
Few of the Reasons Why
The Onsrud CNC system has been specifically manufactured and tailored
for Onsrud machine tools. We use high performance 32 bit RISC
processors running extraordinarily high-performance firmware.
Calculation look ahead is based on time rather than the number
of blocks. Most controllers look 10 or perhaps 20 program lines
ahead. If the movement in each of the program lines is long, the
programmed speed can be achieved. However, if each movement is
short, and this is typically the case on complex CAD produced
parts, routing speed is severely limited. The processor in the
Onsrud controller looks a sufficient number of program lines ahead
to achieve the programmed routing speed. For long movements the
look ahead is only a small number of program lines, for short
movements the look ahead can be hundreds of program lines.
Dedicated
Closed-Loop System
Our focus is to provide Onsrud users with a robust, dependable
control that is seamlessly integrated with the machine. Our standard
AMC control is a closed-loop system which is not reliant on PC-based
controls or third-party NC suppliers. Our optional PC front is
only an interface. A dedicated PLC controls the machine. When
you call Onsrud, you get a company that takes full responsibility
for the entire machine.
Mobile
Keypad Control
The Onsrud STANDARD mobile keypad controls all functions of the
machine instead of only a few like our competitors optional
pendants. All keys are clearly labeled for operator convenience
and ease of use. If you have ever fumbled with hot keys
or cryptic codes, you will appreciate the simplicity of the Onsrud
control. There are no encrypted codes to memorize, and many functions
can be performed simply with the push of a single button.
One-Button
Features
Common multi-step functions, such as powering up in the morning
or setting tool offsets, have been reduced to the push of a single
button. Push the TOOL SETTING button and it asks you
in plain English which tool you want. Then, the DIGITIZE
button causes the control to automatically record the Z-offset
amount and/or change to the next tool, all the while leaving you
in the JOG mode. Other functions, such as setting part zeros or
resetting the tool changer, are all one-button commands.
The
machine controllers we use are the fastest and
most user friendly in the industry.
Our standard AMC control has the ability to remember where in
the job you pressed feed hold. Even if you jog the machine or
park the tool back in the tool changer, it has the artificial
intelligence to pick the tool back up, turn the spindle
back on, rapid back to where you left off, and resume the job!
Try that with a traditional industry standard machine control.
We have always
offered automatic ACC/DEC control to give you the fastest possible
feed rates for a machine to go around a corner or make a straight-line
move. We have always had cutter comp (diameter and
length) infinitely adjustable RPM and feed, MDI and offsets at
the operators finger tips. Full control on the remote pendant!
Multi-Function
Jog Handle
Most machines use the jog handle to move the axes around. On Onsrud
machines, the jog handle can also be used to control spindle speeds
and feeds. Speeds and feeds can be varied in 1% increments from
0 to 999% for the utmost in control.
Word
Processor Editing
Another feature of the Onsrud control with the optional PC
front end is a Word Processor/Style Editor that
allows the operator to edit programs in a Windows
format. Operations such as global searches, find-and-replace,
reversing sign, renumbering programs, copying between programs
and many more are possible. Pull-down menus allow easy
editing without having to refer to manuals.
Remote
Jog Handle
Remote Jog Handle can be used to move all axes, as well as override
spindle speeds and feed rates
Work
Offsets
Simplifies workpiece setup.
Simultaneous
6 Axis Control
High Speed Risc processors allow the highest processing and furthest
look ahead speeds in the industry.
Second
Home Position
Allows the operator to quickly send the axes to a second, user-defined
HOME position in addition to the machines HOME position.
Tool
Offset Probing Option
Automatically defines tool length offsets and allows in-process
tool length updates or to check for wear and broken tools.
Coordinates
Rotation/Scaling Option
Use rotation in conjunction with work offset probing to speed
workpiece setup; or use it to rotate a pattern to another location
or around a circumference, etc. Use scaling to reduce or enlarge
a tool path or pattern.
Ethernet
Interface (standard with PC front end)
Store and transfer data between your Onsrud and a network. Program
files are easily transferred to and from memory, and files can
be accessed by multiple machines. High-speed data transfers allow
DNC of large files at up to 115,000 baud.
High-Speed
Machining
The High-Speed Machining feature of Onsrud vertical/horizontal
machining centers provides a powerful tool to reduce cycle times
and improve accuracy. Testing on complex three-to-five-axis applications
has shown drastic reductions in cycle times while providing improved
accuracy, smoother motion and the best machined part surface.
Using special motion algorithm combined with a distance
based look-ahead and independent axis intersect speed
optimization, Onsrud machines achieve unmatched productivity.
Our high-speed machining option provides cutting feeds up to 3600
inches-per-minute without risk of distortion to the programmed
path. The motion algorithm determines the fastest feed rate at
which each stroke or vector can be blended into the next on all
moving axes simultaneously, without unnecessary stopping, and
precisely controls the speed between vectors. The result is higher
accuracy, smoother motion and higher actual feed rates, especially
with complex part geometry. This means greater machine productivity
for you.
Many of todays
high-speed controls are either very expensive or require
a pre-processing mode or special post, which is time consuming
and alters the G-code program. The Onsrud High-Speed Machining
option accepts ISO standard G-code from all major CAM systems.
