CNC controls for Engraving, Jewelry Making, and EDM electrodes
CNC Bench
or Table top milling machines for fine accurate detailed artwork. |

The
CENTROID CNC control is perfect for the fine detail machining that
small complex parts such as medical devices, jewelery, and edm electrodes
present. With "high speed processing" as a standard feature,
the CENTROID CNC can process large g-code programs without any hesitation
or gouging. This provides superior machining performace eliminating
tool marks and breakage due to overshoot. |

Since
the CENTROID is PC based storing and handling of large 3D g-code
programs has been reduced to a simple task. LAN connections, large
built in hard drives, CD rom, Zip drives and other devices are easy
and inexpensive to add to the Centroid CNC control.
With a properly
built machine fine tolerances and high repeatability are easy to obtain.
With a Centroid
you can add production enhancing features such as: Automatic tool
changers and 4th axis rotary tables. |

Spindle
speeds up to 100,000 rpm. A typical engraving machine with ATC will
have a brushless, variable speed spindle that is liquid cooled and
runs up to 60,000 rpm. Manual tool change machines are typically supplied
with 42,000 rpm or 50,000 rpm spindles. Slower speed spindles up to
5 HP are also installed on these types of machines.
Depending on the spindle configuration, the machines can engrave tool
steel dies in complex surfaces, graphite electrodes in complex surfaces,
or metals as hard as aluminum at normal machining speeds (i.e. .050
deep at 30 - 50" per minute). |

The
Centroid 4 axis CNC control provides interpolated machining on all
4 axes. The machine can simultaneously move any combination of axes
in conjunction with the rotary table and provides a real time position
readout of the rotary table in degrees. Intricate patterns can be
machined on any cylindrical object. |

Alot
of customers use the Centroid equipped compact machines in production
applications and find they run reliably in multi-shift operations.
Other applications they are involved in include medical, electronic,
modeling and prototyping, EDM electrodes, deburring, jewelry molds,
and many others. |

The
combination of the fast, precise carriages with the advanced features
of the Centroid control enable the machines to produce parts extremely
rapidly, and usually much more rapidly than machining centers and
other, larger machines. "High Throughput Machining". |

Lost
wax pattern for class ring. Machined on a CENTROID equipped mho compact
mill. One of the largest Class Ring manufactures uses CENTROID CNC
equipped mho compact milling machines to produce all of their custom
class rings. The ring is machined in wax which is used as a pattern
for the casting of the Gold, Silver or Platinum. The CENTROID CNC
control gives them the abilitly to quickly machine an accrate pattern
with exact detail for an impressive ring! |
