CNC Milling Machines

• Mill and Program Simultaneously
  
• Significantly improves efficiency, productivity and
  profitability; may be used automatically or
  manually.
• Disconnect Capability
  Switch between 2-axes and 3-axes machining on
  the fly. The Z-axis servo drive unit quickly
  disconnects from the quill.
• AMI
  Control coolant pumps, oilers, misters and rotary
  index heads.
• Teach Position
  Use a toll, electronic edge finder or indicator to
  create a program from an existing part.

FLEXIBILITY / REDUCED SET-UP TIME

• Eliminate Repetitive and Tedious Setups
• Immediate Part-View Graphics
  MILLPWR shows you the program as you create
  it. Seeing the program as it develops makes it
  easy to correct trouble spots before you machine.
• Position-Trac™/Find Home
  Easily, quickly and accurately reestablish
  workpiece zero after power loss or next morning
  start-up.
• Skew Feature
  MILLPWR compensates for the angle offset and
  helps reduce set-up time if parts are clamped to
  table.
• Exploded
  “Explode” a program in several more detailed
  steps for easier editing.
• Edit Capabilities
  Edit program steps in groups or one at a time.
• Job Clock
  Keep track of run times, monitor throughput - even
  estimates how long a job will take.

INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY

• Mill More Efficiently and Effectively
• Bolthole Calculations
• Calculate bolthole patterns instantly
  Full & Partial circles
  Linear Row/Column
  Rectangular Frame
  Rectangular Array
  Tool Offsets
  Enter the tool’s diameter and
  length, and the MILLPWR will
  automatically compensate for
  the tool’s dimensions while
  machining. This allows you to
  program the part instead of the
  tool path.
• Tool Library
  Create a list of frequently used tools to save time
  while programming a part.
• DXF File Input
  Reduce programming time by loading part
  geometry from a CAD file.
• 3-D Contouring
  Ability to import and run G-code files from
  CAD/CAM programs.
• Multiple Scale Coupling
  Couple the movement of two parallel axes (i.e. the
  quill and knee) and never lose track of your z-Axis
  part zero again.
• Merge
  Merge one program with another to significantly
  reduce programming time.
• Mirror/Repeat/Rotate
  Easily manipulate part programs to save time and
  reduce program steps.
• Contour
  Create a continuous contour and add finishing
  passes with approach and departure moves to
  avoid tool marks.
• Centreline
  Reduce setup time and math errors - let
  MILLPWR calculate the centreline between two or
  more points.
• Custom Pocket
  Program a continuous closed contour that has an
  irregular shape for multiple passes.
• Island/Bosses
  Create raised features on any part.
• Chamfer Capability
  Program chamfers quickly - without calculating
  endpoints.
• Ellipse
  Easily programmed by height and widths.
• Spiral
  Program spirals with various sizes and sweep
  angles.
• Comment Step
  Add text message into any program.
• Jog Control
  Move quickly from one location to another - using
  one axis at a time or any two axes simultaneously.
• Table Limits
  Easily programmable to suit your job
  requirements.
• Remote Stop/Go Switch
  Start and stop movement with a hand-held switch.
• Built-In Calculator
  Performed standard, trig, and geometry
  calculations and transfer them directly into part
  programs. Calculate RPM values simply by
  entering the tool diameter and the surface speed
  that you want to operate at.
• Single-Step Milling Functions
  Quickly perform simple functions such as facing,
  framing (circular or rectangular), drilling (positions,
  hole patterns) and grooves without having to
  program.
• Reference Tables
  Look up drill/tap sizes and surface speeds in
  seconds.
• Part Program Storage
  Large internal part program storage capacity for
  convenient access anytime. Part programs can
  also be saved on floppy disk to through remote
  storage on a computer.
• Feed Rate Override
  Adjust the feed rate without exiting the milling
  function or program.
• Engrave
  For engraving alphanumeric characters vertically,
  horizontally, diagonally or along an arc.
• Blend
  Insert a radius between two lines, two arcs, or a
  line and an arc.
• Spindle Control Message
  Displays a message to prompt operator to turn
  spindle on/off and set forward/reverse.
