The machine

The turning center Kummer K250 has been designed from the start to fully release the accuracy, acceleration and speed potential of linear motors. The LINEAR SLIDES KINEMATICS concept LSK enables up to 10 m/s² accelerations, respectively, on compact strokes of 250 mm x 100 mm, up to 60 m/ min rapid traverses for submicron repositioning accuracy ! The machine standard configuration essentially features an ultra light direct drive mobile suspended spindle headstock mounted on an ultra rigid 7 ton base composed of a steel-framed chassis filled with water based concrete.
The mobile mass therefore only accounts for 2,5% of the machine total weight.

  • Unproductive time reduced by over 50%.
  • Integrated and thermally stabilized linear motors.
  • Direct measurement of the slide movements by a single ruler with 2 cursors (resolution 0,01 µm).
  • No residual faults from the ball screws.

The Spindle

Several mobile direct drive spindles are available, according to the requirements of the specific machining solution. The speed range goes from 8’000 rpm to 12’000 rpm. The spindle can be equipped with steel or ceramic precision ball bearings or hydrostatic bearings.
