Turning machines (lathes)

Multi-technology machine configurations are possible thanks to the modular system of the PV series. Complete machining of rotary components for diameters from 350–5,000 mm.  

The machine series is available as a single-spindle machine with two separate work areas, each with a tool carrier, or as a pendulum slide machine to achieve the best possible balance between non-productive and productive times. 

The machine program is designed to enable all possible uses on the machine, i.e., turning, grinding, drilling, and milling. The machine can also be fitted with a Y-axis in order to be able to realize genuine PITTLER SKIVING.

Highlights:

01
Up to 6-axis machining: turning, grinding, milling, drilling, measuring, PITTLER Skiving possible with Y-axis

02
Automatic tool changeover with up to 150 tools

03
High level of flexibility and equipment variance

04
Generously dimensioned work area and good accessibility for optimal loadability

In the diameter range from 100 – 630 mm customers frequently have additional requirements - such as high unfinished part allowances for machining - high degree of complexity of parts - high part weights. The PV SL 2 / PV SL 3 machine platforms take such requirement profiles into consideration. The sturdy, high torque and high performance design ensures efficient production of parts even with high allowances or allowance variations. Various sizes of operating chambers are available for processing. This ensures sufficient space for auxiliary operations such as drilling, milling and grinding. In practice this means fewer chucking operations.High performance reliability In the diameter range from 100 – 630 mm customers frequently have additional requirements - such as high unfinished part allowances for machining - high degree of complexity of parts - high part weights.

Highlights:

01
Parallel and turning machining

02
Flexible workpiece feed from the rear of the machine into the automation room

03
Loading via storage table for up to 45 minutes of standalone processing

04
Automatic part separation – no defined placing of the raw and finished parts necessary

05
NC lift-off holder for brake disc machining

Small – flexible – precise in the diameter range from 50 to 250 mm, maximum precision in spite of high speed. The module system for reducing unit costs. The modular N1 product platform unites applications from different machining technologies. The benefit for users goes beyond significantly reducing investment costs to include the declared intention of this development: Permanent reduction of unit production costs. PITTLER T&S GmbH, the traditional manufacturer of CNC lathes, has integrated operations such as drilling, thread cutting, counter-sinking, milling, grinding as well as final expanding and burnishing into the N1 platform in addition to turning. The offer is completed by our own integrated quality and process assurance modules as well as material flow components.

NC lift-off holder for brake disc machining

The innovative solution for complete machining of rotationally symmetrical and cubic parts, based on proven designs. The modular concept allows the machine to be produced with 1 or 2 independent spindles and with one or two cross slides. The PV³ combines technologies such as turning, drilling, thread cutting, milling, skiving, grooving or grinding and gear hobbing as well as hard turning and grinding including integrated quality check in a monitored process, all in one machine. Unique, patented tool carriers allow this high application flexibility in the part diameter range from 400 to 1,600 mm.

With two center-drive-heads for simultaneous end machining of shafts with a length up to max. 1.600 mm or with chuck construction for 4-axis turning. The product range V 300 is multifunctional and convenience through short loading and unloading times as well as simultaneous machining with two turrets. The V 300 series is particularly suitable with center-drive-heads if only both ends need to be machined and so the complete machining can be carried out in one clamping.

Highlights:

01
Turning, milling and gear cutting of shafts in only one set-up

02
Simultaneous machining of both shaft ends thanks to center drive technology

03
6-sided machining in main and counter spindle with up to four tool carriers

04
Automatic tool change in 7 seconds due to disc magazine

05
Integrated automation for fast workpiece change

The PV machines for machining large workpieces from 2,000 to 4,000 mm in diameter and 1,000 mm in height have a particularly stable machine bed with continuous support of the guide carrier for maximum rigidity and accuracy. Up to two cross slides can be installed on the guides of the machine bed, which can accommodate a wide range of tool carriers - from fixed tool holders to multifunction heads with B-axis and motorized milling spindle. Tool magazines can be provided for automatic tool change.

The solid headstock features a very robust and highly precise roller bearing. It is driven by a gear stage and is scalable by the number of motors installed. If required, two headstocks can also be used on one machine bed.
