CNC RETROFITTING

[DR JADHAV]

We have 6-axis wotan horizontal milling & boring machine.
Linear axis- x,y,z,w & U.
Rotary table B Axis
Z,U & W axis are parallel.
Z is tool axis.
X is cross slide.
We wish to retrofit the machine.Which control I should select & also suggest How many axis simutaneous control for linear & circular interpolation.

Siemens 840D SL is the ideal control for this retrofit application. You can keep the existing motors and drives if they are in good working condition and just change the CNC and PLC part of the machine.
We sell and support Siemens Sinumerik products.

I would also look at Fagor, they have units which are up to the task.
