New Bumotec 191neo
A precision machining solution with 12 different faces
Available in four versions – "P" with vice, "PRM" with multipurpose pickup vice, "R" with back-working spindle, and "RP" with a combined vice and back-working spindle – and a choice of bar passage diameters of 42, 50 or 65 mm, we are not just releasing one production solution. There are twelve (12) separate machines based on a single platform. The Bumotec 191neo provides a true economic and technical solution to both the current and future challenges arising from specific requirements relating to medical technologies, but also the luxury industry, and, more broadly, the micromechanics sector.
Tried and tested superior performance
Extremely stable during production without any intervention from operators, the 191neo offers a formidable level of productivity. The tool change time, which has been reduced by some 15%, further improves its response to the most demanding cycle time constraints. To this is added the milling spindle with higher torque developed and produced by Starrag, and a back-working movement controlled by an electric motor, 12% faster and with rigid, precise position control.
As has long been standard for Bumotec, its tool magazine has 90 positions and integrates now a tool breakage probe which runs in parallel.
Coupled with the now traditional Bumotec palletiser or with a robotic, modular or custom-made automated cell, this gives you access to "24/7" type production, which is only interrupted by preventive maintenance when required.
Equipped with "à la carte" peripherals, such as temperature-controlled high pressure, chip conveyor and a Bumotec or other commercially-available bar-loader known by our customers, the modular nature of the 191neo ensures all customer needs can be met. In addition to milling and turning, it can also be used for grinding, polishing, skiving, gear hobbing and diamond cutting, thereby allowing complex, demanding parts to be completed without changing fixtures.
A solution focussed on digital transformation
This update of the range, benefiting from the reliability and stability during production inherited from the Bumotec s191, is focussed on digital transformation which ensures compatibility with the latest production technologies and management of the machining centre via remote access.
But that's not all! The 191neo also offers you other important advantages.
