5-axis CNC machining centers for milling and drilling - Gantry CNC machining centers for large-size work areas - ethos

High speed 5-axis CNC machining centers

Numerically controlled machining center designed according to CMS’ philosophy: the machine is the result and culmination of experiences developed in the aerospace and automotive sectors. The structure and the technical solutions adopted, along with the selected components, ensure a highest level of component finish, high machining speeds, reliability, structural rigidity, operating flexibility and outstanding productivity.

ethos machine is also available with:

  • APC extractable tables allow the loading and unloading outside the working area
  • rotary table (TR): simplifies loading/unloading outside the machine and allows pendulum cycle using the complete working area
  • double bridge with twin operating units
  • 5-axis hybrid solution: milling + waterjet cutting system with catcher
  • fully automatic universal system for holding complex shaped parts (UHF), designed and produced by CMS
Advantages

PRECISION LIKE NEVER BEFORE

Thanks to Aero-Design technology, the frames of the machining centre boast structural rigidity up to 23% higher than the average in its category, with a high capacity of vibration absorption. In addition, recirculating roller guides and zero backlash kinematics allow the achievement of unprecedented accuracies on such types of machining centers. The combination with state-of-the-art acceleration and speed ensures, as a result, the perfect balance between precision and speed for the most demanding productions such as automotive and aerospace.

POWER AND CONTROL

ethos can be fitted with an innovative 5-axis operating unit equipped with torque motors on the rotating axes; this technology allows direct coupling between the motors and the axes, eliminating all the transmission components and therefore all inaccuracies and mechanical wear; the torque motors can also reach accelerations and speeds up to 5 times higher than traditional solutions while ensuring 41% higher precision.

BETTER AND FASTER

High operating power, geometric precision and reliability even in the most complex machining operations lead to a single result: producing better workpieces more quickly. Ethos has been designed to adapt to your manufacturing reality and make it even more efficient and competitive.

 

UHF: CMS UNIVERSAL SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATIC WORKPIECE CLAMPING * (*PATENTED)

As a rule, the problem of fixing complex workpieces is solved by means of dedicated equipment for each single workpiece; therefore, the solution is expensive both in terms of realization and logistics (storage and handling) but above all it is not efficient for productions with single lots or very small batches as it often occurs in aerospace. CMS has developed a universal and automatic clamping system, capable of reconfiguring itself in a few seconds to adapt to the (sometimes) extremely complex shapes of each new workpiece. Zero downtime: a revolution in the effeciency and management of production.
