What is the Tool Development Trend in Present Machining Industry

Unisign Machine Tools has developed a new CNC machine for the truck industry: the Uniaxle.

The Uniaxle provides a  dedicated CNC machining center where welded and cast rear axles can be machined in a single setup. According to the company, it will improve the accuracy and quality of rear axles, and production processes will be quicker and more cost-effective.

With the Uniaxle, the rear axle in the CNC machine is not what rotates; rather, the cutting tool rotates around the rear axle. With this structural design, Unisign engineers have reportedly eliminated the imbalance in the rotating tools. Manufacturers can machine rear axles at high speed and very accurately.

In addition to the turning head, the rod peeling inserts Uniaxle also has a milling spindle. All turning and milling operations on the rear axle are carried out at the same time. For example, while an axle end is being created at the left, a flange is being milled at the right. Another advantage is the rotation unit which turns the rear axle through 90° so the milling spindle can also machine the rear axle banjo.

The Uniaxle is said to provide cycle times of 30 min/axle (13,000 rear axles/year), a wide range of rear axles, high machining speed and accuracy and no imbalance. It is an unmanned machine that is designed to deep hole drilling inserts take up less space in the shop while providing high efficiency with an automatic loading crane.
