Concept

CNC thru feed machining center with the ability of drilling, grooving and routing of panels from top and bottom, allowing to produce two parts at the same time.

Structure

The structure consists of an engineered frame strongly ribbed and very rigid; the closed ring structure has a large base to achieve and maintain, year after year, stability and precision under all work conditions.The newly designed frame enables automatic input of the panel and it has been designed to obtain the lowest overall dimension.

Movement

The panels movement along the longitudinal machine axis (X) is realized by a couple of clamps independent from each other. The patented design allows the working inside of the clamp optimizing the production cycle.These clamps, managed by the numerical control, acting as rear reference stop for the panels alignment. The movement of the operating units along X and Z axes is driven by brushless motors and recirculating ball screws, independent between upper and lower units; It is possible in this way to process simultaneously 2 panels with same dimensions but specular or with different  working.

Cordless reader device by which scans labels associated to the panel to load automatically a program on the PC with consequent reduction of loss of time.

Safety Devices 

The UNIFLEX machine is protected on the all sides by effective CE safety systems (protection nets + sensible mats+ photoelectric cell + sensors) that prevent any contact between the operator and the machine moving parts during normal operation

Uniflex Clamping System 

The movement of the panel along the X axis is accomplished by a set of independent clamps (patent pending Morbidelli). The clamps also act as rear reference stop to align the panels and are equipped with an automatic thickness measuring device. 

Boring Heads

The operating unit is composed by two boring units totally independent between them; one upper and the other one lower, at independent spindles each equipped with:

• 12 vertical spindles along X

• 16 vertical spindles along Y

• 3 vertical hinge unit position 6

• 3 vertical spindles in Y

• 2 + 2 horizontal spindles in X

• 1 horizontal spindles in Y

• 1 horizontal spindles in Y

Y Prime

• 11 vertical spindles along X

• 3 vertical spindles in Y

• 2 + 2 horizontal spindles in X

52.08.71 Table with cross belts manual pre-loading station 610+610

This station allows the pre-loading of 2 overlapped panels with a width up to 610 mm, while the machine is working. As the panel in working phase crosses the loading area, some side pushers pick the panels up from the pre-loading area. During the automatic positioning, the panels are measured; these dimensions are transferred to the control which adjusts the programmed working scheme to the real workpiece dimensions. This allows to load of the working program in masked time. The station is equipped with front safety photocellUnloading station with cross belts.

The unloading table is made by supports spaced by cross belts. 

• The supports act as support to the panel during the whole working phases 

• The cross belts move the finished panels on the side of the machine allowing to the operator an easy and safety removal operation.

With this station it can be positioned a panel with a width up to 1300 mm allowing the machine to start the working of the next panel. It is possible also to manage 2 overlapped panels.

52.37.07 Electric cabinet with Air Conditioning Device

It maintains temperature of approx. 65°F inside the electric cabinet. Automatic Lubrication system

The lubrication of the X, Y, and Z axis is managed at fixed intervals by the Numerical Control, without any manual interventions and any stop of the machine to increase the machine reliability and to reduce at the minimum any maintenance time. 52.36.90 Partialized Dust Extraction

The dust extraction air flow is directed to the specific operating unit which is working at each time through dedicated valves.
