Pioneering direct-driven 2-axis NC milling heads
The CYTEC machining heads with synchronous drives for highly dynamic applications are the result of decades of experience designing torque motors.
The heart of the direct-drive 1-or 2-axes milling heads is the optimized generation of CYTEC torque motors: Increased power density and sophisticated cooling technology of the windings allow approximately 30% more power, efficiency and dynamics. Highly precise Heidenhain encoders ensure optimum positioning accuracy.
As a pioneer of direct-driven 2-axis NC milling heads and patent holder for this technology, CYTEC was one of the first manufacturer of machining heads with patented direct drive in all driven axes. The patented direct drives show virtually no wear and therefore guarantee consistent quality in the machining result. With this CYTEC has created a significant boost and a new level of highly dynamic milling processes.
CYTEC machining heads are used in the most diverse areas of machine tool engineering. For example, they can be found in CNC milling and drilling centers, CNC grinding machines, and machines for surface treatment.
A special feature of the CYTEC milling heads is the combination of compact dimensions, high performance and high stiffness, which distinguish CYTEC’s unique characteristic and selling point. The milling heads are available in various performance classes. These include our S8, P12, M21 and G30 series.
All CYTEC milling heads can be equipped with an infinitely revolving C-axis for special processing speed requirements. CYTEC milling heads, because of their high dynamic range, are ideal for 3D rough milling, as well as for simultaneous undercut machining. Both methods shorten the processing time significantly and thus ensure efficient machine operations.
All axes of the CYTEC milling heads are direct-driven. Direct drive creates practically no wear, because no gearbox, etc. is needed. Downtimes can be minimized and plant availability increased. Machining precision can be maintained for a long time as wear and tear is low. High resolution measuring systems, as well as the integrated monitoring of motors and spindles, ensure highest precision in the entire system.
