For a long time, the S20 from Feinmechanik MICHAEL DECKEL has been considered the top model in the market among five-axis CNC grinding centres. Its perfected technology combined with sturdy mechanics guarantees what counts today: precise grinding results. Now, the leading tool grinding machine builder is coming up with a consistent innovation.
The S20 – ideal for precision
With justification, the S20 is considered a perfected machine in the industry today, where a lot of trend-setting technical innovations from MICHAEL DECKEL have left their marks. By its patented vertical design, it belongs to the top models among five-axis CNC grinding centres. It offers a compact design, optimum stiffness and facilitates ideal movements of its axes. Thus, it can be automated without any problems. The vertical tool results in better trueness. Optimum user-friendliness such as a multi-function, height-adjustable operator panel with a flat screen makes working immensely easier. Being provided with a standard six-station wheel changer, a modern control system and with efficient software, it is the ideal choice for the economic and highly efficient resharpening and manufacture of demanding tools. An integrated chain loader system offers sufficient room for a variety of workpieces of various diameters and geometries up to a length of approx. 170 mm. A swivelling gripper can (variably) take up tools with diameters in the range from 5 to 25 mm. The good cost effectiveness is not only pointed out by the manufacturer itself but is also realized as it is in the market.
Tool machining at its best: S20 E NUM
By the new S20 E NUM tool grinding centre furnished with NUMROTOplus software, DECKEL is getting proven know-how and far-reaching experience into its S20 family. The Swiss software specialist NUM AG is a tool grinding trendsetter well known in the market and has been proving useful in connection with other DECKEL product series for many years. NUMROTOplus® as a standard solution for tool grinding allows free programming for almost unlimited applications. Perfected programming software with intuitive guidance is available to the user for common grinding applications, and if this is not sufficient, for example, in specific cases integrated free programming in NUMROTOplus® will provide further assistance. Measured values are directly taken over, with the CNC program required for the grinding process being automatically computed, transferred and started. Full-scale 2D simulation of the complete tool makes programming enormously easier and can be updated to 3D simulation. To constantly keep to the state of the art NUMROTOplus® is being permanently upgraded, optimized and provided with new application options. Users will be granted access to the latest update any time.
By the S20 E NUM, MICHAEL DECKEL has extended its position within a segment that gives new impetus for automatic tool grinding and manufacturing to both tool grinding beginners and more demanding resharpening shops. Moreover, the Weilheim company also meets the growing demand of the market and of those enterprises that are already using NUM software for their machinery and that wish to be given the opportunity for smooth extension. Custom-built financing proposals submitted by DECKEL will make extensions of your machinery manageable and calculable. It turns out again that MICHAEL DECKEL makes tool grinding centres for any demand and is scoring great hits by its services – even in economically difficult times.
