GE Fanuc at EMO 2007
The exhibition of GE Fanuc, specializing in CNC technology, is especially geared to applications. Through the practical demonstration of their products and using machines that show the operation of the same, specialists show how is can significantly raise productivity through the use of suitable motors and controls.
GE Fanuc product line begins at the low end with the controls of the series 0i, equipped with more and more functionality. In the TTC version, can now even meet the high demands of the lathes of two headers. The CNC of the Series 30/31/32i are aimed at applications of higher range and are suitable for complex machines, such as the increasingly used more often in Europe. They offer many features to get maximum productivity turning/milling combined centres and machines of five axes and multi-head machines and transfer machines.
Another contributing factor, affecting when least indirectly to the productivity of machines and systems, is the safety of the operator and the machine. The "check for interference in 3D'", which occurs at the EMO exhibition, it constitutes an important contribution to the prevention of collisions. Using this function, the manufacturers of machines - and if necessary the operators of the machines - can protect areas with risk of collision (such as tool, the piece, the table and mooring devices), using geometric figures.
The that you want to know the programming software in easy to use Manual Guide workshop at this fair i, has at its disposal the latest version with all its innovations. The same applies to the software Turn Mate i, which allows the programming of lathes of basic level. GE Fanuc will also expose the software compatible with PC "NC Guide" suitable for presentations, tutorials and practices. It is an installable network of combined CNC Simulator / Manual Guide i of GE Fanuc. In the version "NC Guide pro", the simulation also extends to the programming of the PLC (PMC).
Control systems are an important part of the range of products from GE Fanuc. They include servo motors and engines of head sizes and powers, as well as adequate amplifiers. Particularly impressive are the large servo motors that offer huge advantages, for example, for application in presses. In addition, GE Fanuc informs visitors of EMO about their new linear motors and high-torque, which are suitable for a wide variety of machine tools for high performance.
FANUC also exposes its wide range of CO2 lasers in the EMO and demonstrates the flexibility they offer for demanding applications.
There is the opportunity to observe solutions of robots in operation in Fanuc of the fair stand. Show specific applications for machine tool, intended, for example, for the loading and unloading of parts, as well as the trimming of the same, and finally, at the upper end of the range known as "robot cell", developed by Fanuc fully automated production cell.
The presentation of various services for end users complete the presentation of GE Fanuc in the trade fair in Hanover.
