MTB Pfauter P1000 Rebuilt and Re-controlled with Fanuc 0iM-F CNC

This MTB/Pfauter P1000 Hobbing machine is currently on our shop floor undergoing a complete upgrade and full reconditioning including a heavy duty, high performance hob head and a brand-new recontrol with state-of-the-art Fanuc CNC 0iM-F Plus system with all new Alpha series HVi digital servo motors and drives having the following axes under CNC control; X (radial), Y (tangential), Z (axial), C (worktable). The hob head swivel is fully manual, and the un-clamping is done manually via loosening nuts. We can offer you an of upgrade for the hob head swivel complete with automatic un-clamping and clamping of the hob head along with full servo control to provide seamless motion during setup with no operator intervention on the hob head positioning process. The hob head has been completely rebuilt and motorized to remove the long drive train and obsolete PIV. The motorized head is equipped with a 15kW, Fanuc Alpha i series spindle motor with a 2.5:1 reduction ratio, producing roughly 300Nm of peak torque for the most demanding applications. Additionally, we are outfitting this machine with an all-new electrical system, this includes a new electrical cabinet and all new components inside; motor starters, relays, power supplies, terminal strips, fuses etc. Furthermore, the machine is being outfitted with absolute feedback devices thus eliminating the homing process saving you valuable time and money. To top it all off this conversion package includes our highly-intuitive conversational programming software which provides operators with a simple (dummy-proof) menu-based system for quick and easy entry of part and process data on the CNC operator’s panel to help prevent costly input errors, saving you valuable time and money as well as improving operator safety. The software will allow for triple pass cutting, programmable directions, taper correction, crowning with offset capability, shifting control, basic form milling (gashing) capability, radial plunge cycle, short lead hobs corrections, measuring over pins size corrections and a lot more. The worktable is a backlash free design utilizing dual worms on a single worm wheel.
