STANDARD DESIGN FEATURES:

BASE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION

The Morbidelli A X5 EVOLUTION owes its rigidity to the design and weight of its reinforced base and

innovative one-piece frame utilizing a stationary "Y" axis support arm. All portions of the base are of heavy gauge steel and are normalized after welding, a process which ensures that all stress in the base is removed before it is machined and drilled for the guides.

Today's machining centers are being asked to perform a wide variety of operations (sawing, routing, and

drilling) in both the vertical and horizontal planes at the highest speeds possible while, at the same time,

maintaining a high quality of cut. Micro-vibrations are created around all types of CNC machining centers

where there is head positioning, drilling, and high speed routing taking place on the machine base. Morbidelli solves the problem of deadening vibration as well as offering rigidity by employing heavy gauge steel members for the base of the machine. This weight, coupled with the one-piece frame offers the best

combination of rigidity and balanced strength on a cantilever design. Movement along the X via rack and

pinion and in Y and Z-axes are driven by high precision ball screw systems.

Author Advantage

* No vibration means higher quality finish *

* Rugged design provides maximum durability and flexibility *

HIGH PRECISION, HIGH LOAD PRISMATIC BEARING GUIDES

Morbidelli uses prismatic guides for support in all axes.

Due to their added weight load capability (approximately 4 times that of conventional round guides), prismatic type guides can permit accurate head positioning at high speeds.

In addition, these guides are offset to provide better weight and load distribution. The load is never concentrated on one point.

Author Advantage

* Design allows higher speeds without sacrificing longevity *

* Even weight distribution increase life of guides *

Offset

Guides

A.C. SERVO MOTORS IN ALL THREE AXES

A.C. servomotors, or A.C. brushless motors as they are sometimes called, are the latest in electronic linear motion technology. A.C. servomotors use less power and produce a more even output (drive) throughout the power band. The ability to maintain a constant torque setting when going from an idle setting into a heavy rout produces cleaner cuts and longer tool life. These motors are controlled by digital supply cards that offer the reliability and precision fine tuning associated with solid state electronics.

Author Advantage

* Clean, consistent, repetitive routing capability *

SOLID STATE INVERTER CONTROLS ROUTER RPM

Solid State frequency inverters support the programmable router spindle speeds (S functions). By utilizing

digital inverter technology, the programmer can select the correct cutter RPM and match it to the correct

linear/rotational feed speed for the specific application and/or material being cut. This will give optimum quality of cut while greatly extending tool life. The inverter also acts as an electronic brake, stopping the router spindle motor in microseconds if an emergency signal is given.

Author Advantage

* Flexibility for machining various types of materials *

REMOTE CONTROL PENDANT:

The Morbidelli X5 utilizes a remote pendant to allow the operator to move freely about the

machine and still control functions such as all axes movements, axes speeds and

machining speeds. The remote also provides the operator with an emergency stop (estop)

switch.

Author Advantage

* Safer operation *

LOW VOLTAGE STABILIZER

This stabilizer cleans up the single-phase voltage running the microprocessor. This in

conjunction with low capacitance filters ensures voltage spikes do not harm or interfere

with the microprocessor.

REMOTE DIAGNOSTICS

Through the use of remote, real-time diagnostics can be provided from SCM’s facility in Duluth, Ga. The PC

control is service over the internet. The customer is responsible for providing internet to the machine.

Author Advantage

* Remote troubleshooting capability means more machine uptime *

CONTROL UNIT:

OFFICE PC BASED CONTROLER

The Morbidelli Author X5 EVOLUTION uses an office PC for operator interface.

Author Advantage

* User friendly interface *

* Non-proprietary controller *

XILOG-OPERATOR INTERFACE

 Controlled acceleration and deceleration

 Linear and circular interpolation

 Ball screw pitch error compensation

 Self diagnostics through error messages

 Dynamic tool correction via PLC due to active wear concerning space and time.

SPACE: Machine can be programmed to stop after predetermined maximum linear usage has been reached.

TIME: Machine can be programmed to stop after predetermined amount of work hours has been

reached.

 Subroutine programming (canned cycle) with library

 Specular programming: Allows writing of programs two different multiple reference points. For example

the Left or Right corner of a panel.

 Parametric scaling of programs through use of template type programs that the operator creates and

stores in memory. Part programs can then be proportionally scaled up or down in size without the need to

re-write the entire program.

 Programs can be viewed from all 5 faces

 Built in macros for simple, widely used programs

On board cycle optimization

CUSTOM EQUIPMENT:

5 axis, 11 KW (15 HP) HSK63 router, 1.200-20.000 rpm

The operating unit is a powerful 15 HP liquid cooled router with the capability of a five axis positioning system.

This feature allows for machining with the tool oriented in any direction and avoids the use of many angular heads for every different application.

The structural design of the unit allows for the non-orthogonal axis to cross each other right close to the tool.

This provides a rigid support for the heaviest routing operations.

Also, it allows different positioning within a restricted area compared to an orthogonal axis system, which will allow for complex shapes routing without collisions with the components being manufactured. All the

operations are easier, thanks to the reduced dimension of the unit, with respect to the axis of the spindle

rotation, that when it is in horizontal position is just 35mm.

529214 REAR TOOL CHANGER WITH 24 POSITIONS

The rear tool crib is placed directly on the mobile support and can host up to 24 tools with HSK 63 attachment.

The device is composed by a rolling steel flat that slides along X axis on THK guides and is pneumatically

controlled for the lifting phase.

Author Advantage

* Wide variety of tooling options increases

versatility *

STD 24 SPINDLE DRILLING UNIT

The vertical spindles are spaced on a 32 mm center-to-center distance. Each spindle can be independently programmed and actuated including all horizontal drills. The spindles are arranged as follows:

- 10 spindles in a row in the X-axis.

- 8 spindles in a row in the Y-axis

- 2 + 2 independently controllable horizontal spindles in "X" axis

- 1 + 1 independently controllable horizontal spindle in "Y" axis

- Motor power – 3.0 kW (3 HP)

- RPM Adjustable through the inverter 2000 - 4000 RPM (528487)

529209 WORKTABLE FOR COMPONENT NESTING (5500 mm X 1500 mm)

The aluminum multi-function worktable has an answer to most component clamping and nesting scenarios.

The table is designed of high tensile strength aircraft aluminum, and is slotted both transversely and

longitudinally to accept many different fixturing devices.

Note: Standard stops are adjustable on the outside of table. Stops located in center (as pictured) of table are special order.

528654 12 REFERENCE STOP WITHIN THE TABLE (Locations to be determined)

In addition to nesting full sheets, the Evolution X5 can also be used for routing smaller components. For work on the face of the component, rubber gasketing material can be used to isolate the vacuum for part holddown.

This eliminates the need for special fixturing devices as is necessary on many machines. When

machining the edges of parts, the patented MODULSET system raises the component so work can take place without damage to the worktable.
