High-Precision Machining

High-performance machine tools demand exceptional drive system capabilities, particularly in dynamic precision and surface quality. While conventional servo drives often struggle with these requirements, Triamec's drive solutions have proven successful across diverse machine tool applications.

A notable example is the integration of Triamec Servo Drives with Beckhoff TwinCAT CNC controllers in advanced 5-axis milling machines. These systems combine direct drives and dual-encoder ballscrew technology, achieving outstanding results for multiple leading machine tool manufacturers.

Triamec's solutions excel in both standard and specialized applications. In parallel kinematic machines, where small moving masses enable very high dynamics of motion, Triamec drives provide the necessary high rigidity and precise control. The CNC controller's target data is processed through sophisticated kinematics, while workspace monitoring ensures mechanical protection. The control signals are transmitted to the Triamec servo drives via the Tria-Link fieldbus at 10kHz cycles, enabling precise motion control. For larger machine tools, the powerful TSP700-40 drive, with its 38kW capacity, has demonstrated significant performance improvements in demanding applications.

The spindle system showcases another strength, with Triamec servo drives driving multi-pole motors exceeding 80,000 rpm, delivering both precise positioning and exceptional synchronization.

These capabilities translate into tangible benefits: superior surface quality, high-speed milling dynamics, excellent planing results, and precise deburring for products with demanding optical requirements.
