A NEW escomatic machine is born!
Unveiled on the 5th of October 2015 at the EMO in Milan, a new machine comes to complete the renewal of the escomatic products. Named « escomatic NM6 Flexi », this machine to be seen at SIAMS takes its place in the center of the Esco SA range between the DX CNC (escomatic D2 / D5 CNC, D5 Ultra, D5 TWIN) and the EC ( escomatic EC 8). It will succeed the New Mach 64x range which has held a successful position for many years.
More than an evolution of the New Mach 64x
Two rules have availed for the development :
- take the best elements of the previous New Mach 64x range to ensure its best starting quality
- integrate the latest Esco development skills with the latest available technologies to make it more flexible, faster and cheaper.
Major innovation ?
Two completely independent secondary slides, which allows work on secondary operations from the front and back in a much more efficient way than on the current range.
Other innovations
- management by ball screw drive and programming from the console for an optimized straightening
- integration of measure scales on the secondary slides which will guarantee the precision of positioning
- easy access for the operator granted by the complete opening of the frontal protection
Advantages
- More flexible, thanks to the possibility to program the secondary slides independently and because the straightening can be controlled and adjusted from the console.
- Easier, through a wide-open access for the operator and the use of the latest programming technologies FANUC 0i-TF.
- Faster, because the independent functioning of the two front and back units will ensure for improved cycle times.
