XYZ 560 Mini MillUnlike many other Mini Mills the XYZ 560 weighs in at a hefty 3,100 kgs. This extra stability gives superior metal removal capabilities by effectively absorbing the cutting forces. Picture shows the fully guarded Automatic Toolchanger. All slideways surfaces are also coated with Turcite-B for improved wear resistance.
XYZ 1020 VMCThe 1020’s 24 station toolchanger gives a 2.5 second tool change time for optimum cycle times. The 1020 like the 710 and 1510 also boasts ‘extra wide’ box slideways on all three axes which are hardened and precision ground for superior vibration dampening. All slideways surfaces are also coated with Turcite-B for improved wear resistance.
XYZ 1510 VMCThis large capacity VMC weighs in at 9,000 kg and features additional linear rail supports for the extended X axis saddle as shown below.The 1510 like the 1020, 710 and Mini Mill also have ‘extra wide’ box slideways on all three axes which are hardened and precision ground for superior vibration dampening. All slideways surfaces are also coated with Turcite-B for improved wear resistance.
XYZ 710 VMCThe 710 has a fully guarded 24 station toolchanger. It has a wider base and column than the Mini Mill and also features extra wide slideways which allow for better cutting performance and stability. The ‘extra wide’ box slideways on all three axes have been hardened and precision ground for superior vibration dampening.

Swarf ManagementWash down facilities are standard on all VMCs. Swarf from the machining area is washed down to the swarf removal area. An optional conveyor can further reduce the time spent cleaning.
Box Way construction on three axesThe wide box type slideways on the three axes are hardened and precision ground assuring superior vibration dampening and rigidity. Slideway surfaces are coated with Turcite-B for improved wear resistance and this provides superior performance, faster machining times and improved longevity.
Please note we fit NSK High Precision High Quality ‘linear ROLLER bearing slides’ on our XYZ 1060 HS High Speed Machining Centre which is designed for cutting at high speed - an appropriate application for this technology. For more on the XYZ 1060 HS see pages 59 to 62.
Box Way versus Linear SlidesThe XYZ range of VMCs use Induction Hardened Box Ways and Turcite-B coated anti-friction slide ways. This design offers the maximum rigidity and vibration absorption – far exceeding what is possible for machines using ‘linear bearing slides’. Machines using ‘linear bearing slides’ are fine for light work but subcontract shops and companies who machine a wide variety of materials (from aluminium, to cast iron, stainless steel and even Inconel) need a machine that will perform on all of their work. Linear way machines are cheaper to produce and can have faster rapids and acceleration, (although on short moves they seldom achieve the rapid rates quoted) but we think these advantages are far outweighed by the superior cutting performance and longevity of Box Way VMCs.

Optional on:XYZ 1020 VMCs when fitted with the12,000rpm spindle
12,000 rpm Spindle
The 1060 HS has a 12,000 rpm spindle with high accuracy design. Spindle oil circulates around the jacket to dissipate heat from the bearings. All spindles are dynamically balanced to give smooth and accurate cutting performance even at high speeds and all are driven by non-slip toothed timing belts and pulleys.
Through Spindle Coolant
The 12,000rpm spindle has 20.4kg/cm2 high pressure coolant to efficiently dissipate chips heat from deep hole machining. This greatly enhances cutting performance and tool life as well as maintaining workpiece machining accuracy and aids in ‘chip evacuation’.
Spindle oil cooler
Controlled by digital electronics the spindle oil cooler offers high accuracy temperature controlof ±1º C. The screen displays setting temperatures and actual temperatures for easy use.

Direct drive on three axesThe X,Y and Z axes are driven by high performance servomotors which drive ballscrews with couplings assuring high positional accuracy under any load condition. The presision ground ballscrews are preloaded to minimise backlash and have coolant flow to chill and eliminate thermal expansion.

The XYZ 1060 HS has a solid Meehanite ribbed casting with superb damping capability. NSK linear roller bearings give a strong vibration free machine that can traverse at 43 m/min. High traverse rates are kept in perfect control via the Siemens 840SL and the 1060 HS unique air damping of the Z axis. Block processing time’s of 4 milliseconds ensure the machine’s movements are both accurate, controlled and when used along side Siemens Compcad spline interpolator function (see page 37) make certain that even when machining complex 3D forms a superior surface finish will always be achieved. The dynamically balanced spindle, fitted with ceramic bearings and oil cooled will run up to 12,000 rpm as standard or can be increased with options of up to 15,000, 18,000 and 24,000 rpm. High feedrates are further enhanced with the ‘pre-selection’ of tools enabling the 24 station side mounted arm toolchanger to achieve 2.5 sec tool to tool change times.

Please note we fit NSK High Precision High Quality ‘linear ROLLER bearing slides’ on our XYZ 1060 HS High Speed Machining Centre which is designed for cutting at high speed - an appropriate application for this technology. For more on the XYZ 1060 HS see pages 59 to 62.
The XYZ range of VMC’s use Induction Hardened Box Ways and Turcite-B coated anti-friction slide ways. This design offers the maximum rigidity and vibration absorption – far exceeding what is possible for machines using ‘linear bearing slides’. Machines using ‘linear bearing slides’ are fine for light work but subcontract shops and companies who machine a wide variety of materials (from aluminium, to cast iron, stainless steel and even Inconel) need a machine that will perform on all of their work. Linear way machines are cheaper to produce and can have faster rapids and acceleration, (although on short moves they seldom achieve the rapid rates quoted) but we think these advantages are far outweighed by the superior cutting performance and longevity of Box Way VMCs.
