701S

willemin-macodel machining center - serie 70 - 701S

The 701S machine is the first machining center to truly make full use of the dynamic control and rigidity offered by linear delta type parallel kinematics

  • 3 axes
  • Machining on 3 to 5 simultaneous axes
  • Usinage

main characteristics

  • 3-axis parallel kinematics, plus 1 rotational axis on the spindle
  • Ultra-high-speed spindle, rotation up to 80,000 rpm
  • Linear axis acceleration 10 m/s2 during machining
  • Feed rate on linear axes X Y Z of 72 m/min
  • Small footprint, approx 1 m2

DESCRIPTION

This new watchmaking kit machining concept – comprising one or more type 701S machines and an automation cell – speeds up production whilst reducing costs. Each center can contain up to five 701S machines supplied by a single robot.

The center itself can be configured with different options including a part cleaning device, multiple conditioning baskets, a vision recognition system, part sampling for statistical process control (SPC) and removal of non-compliant parts.

We can easily incorporate control equipment or add other options required for the production of watchmaking kits.

What makes this concept truly unique is the fact that each 701S machine in the "transfer" center is independent. Each machining center can be coordinated to operate with the other machining stations, or to work independently.

If one 701S machine in a production cell is being serviced, the production rate is limited, but production of each finished workpiece is still guaranteed.
