Schiess Froriep OFBW Vertastile milling and boring work in a shipyard

Schiess Froriep Type OFBW Versatile milling and boring work in a shipyard. The Engineering Control System includes a rigid all welded steel construction and a position governed feed control for 4 axes with a program memory, including an external connection for DC motors. The system is suitable for conventional manual operation, and its features include a digital universal display, automatic switching between target values and actual values, and automatic retrieval of rotation speed and feed. The system's additional equipment includes a telescoping steel guard, a motorized tool clamping mechanism, and an operator platform on the headstock with a control pendant that has motorized adjustment. The 90 degree milling head is attached to the spindle case via a quick release mechanism and can be positioned with an optical 4x90 indexing and a universal auxiliary head for machining inclined surfaces. The system also offers a cooling system for the tools. With independent travel of the drill spindle and the spindle case, the system can make use of a wide range of travel. The system compensates for the inherent sag in the structure. Central lossless oil supply with compressor cooling for the spindle box front, semi automatically with compressor cooling for hydrostatics and lubrication. Power draw bar in the boring universal angular milling head, semi spindle automatic attachment to front face of headstock. Motorized clamping and loosening of the tool in the drilling spindle. High speed drilling heads, thread whirling attachments, and many other facilities. Facing head with a radial axis that can be numerically controlled. Automatic tool changer. Swiveling tool crane on the machine column. Coolant equipment. Independent, power elevated operator's platform. Spindle box motorized height adjustable. Angular milling heads in different designs and with varying overhang, semi automatic attachment to front face of headstock. The horizontal milling and boring machine with a traversing headstock, type FBW, enables high metal removal rates to be obtained, even with the spindles in extremely extended positions. The horizontal travels of the spindle and headstock are cumulative. This type of machine has been designed to perform a variety of operations on huge, heavy, and bulky workpieces. Many machining operations can be done in one setup, reducing non productive times. The modern design features fully hydrostatic guideways as well as droop compensation. Individual feed drives with closed loop control, manual data input, digital readout, and automatic positioning are capable of being expanded to NC control. The universal angular milling head can be power swiveled and is automatically clamped to achieve a rigid connection to the headstock in defined axis position. The operator's platform, SERVOLIFT, can be raised and lowered independently of the headstock to provide the greatest ease of operation.
