With the new high-performance UniversalTurn 50 turning machine, Emco presents the first model in a forward-looking machine series for the efficient, complete machining of bar and chuck workpieces. The UniversalTurn 50 is said to set new standards in precision, dynamics and flexibility. Thanks to powerful and highly dynamic drive systems, the machine enables higher productivity while maintaining machining accuracy and machine rigidity for complex turn-mill parts.

Emco’s UniversalTurn 50 is a compact turning entre with a bar capacity of 51 mm. It combines Emco technologies with future-orientated developments for efficiency, process reliability and versatility. The highly dynamic drives not only enable fast machining cycles but also ensure the necessary precision and rigidity when simultaneously machining complex turn-mill components. Another strength is the integrated Y axis with long guideway, which ensures stable turning and significantly expands the milling functions.

Depending on the configuration, the machine concept offers a scalable and powerful basis for the precise and economical production of complex parts, reports Emco.

In accordance with the model selected, the manufacturing range includes components for hydraulics and pneumatics, mechanical and plant engineering, automotive and engine technology, as well as medical applications, and fastening and transport technology. In addition, the machine is suitable for producing sliding and rolling bearing parts, along with components in defence technology.

Two different bar loading concepts are available for processing bars. Short bar loaders such as the Irco ILS-MUK offer an economical and space-saving solution for automatic reloading with advantages such as low investment costs and space requirements, low-noise operation and a clean machine shop without oil contamination. Alternatively, 3 m bar loaders from Top Automazioni or FMB enable larger material stocks and greater production autonomy.
