Vertical turning machines

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.

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.
