SOLD! LORENZ LS-180 On-Site Recontrol Program

Gear Shapers
Manufacturer:
LORENZ
Model:
LS-180
Serial #:
14663 and 15034
SOLD: As part of the re-control, MTB will replace the entire electrical cabinet and all the equipment and wiring inside of cabinet. This includes all motor starters, relays, power supplies, terminal strips, fuses etc. The existing servo drive motors will be replaced by new digital servomotors and drives of the proper torque and speed. The spindle system will be controlled by a new Fanuc spindle drive system. MTB will include as part of the re-control, our conversational programming which will provide your operators with menu driven part and process information on the CNC operator’s panel. This allows ease of entry of the gear's data by the operator. With regard to the re-control process, this skilled-labor intensive upgrade will take on average 3 to 4 months to complete from receipt of a purchase order. We begin with an in-depth engineering visit to evaluate your machine, assess needs and take measurements for scales, brackets, wiring and other componentry. Your machine will be down for typically a day and if both machines are subject to this upgrade, we'll measure for both machines on the same visit. After this investigative trip, our engineers will design a custom re-control kit, order components and then build the custom kit at MTB, which takes approximately 3 months. Upon completion, an MTB team of experts will return to your facility for 3 to 4 weeks and install the re-control kit. These 3-4 weeks include setup, installation, testing, debugging, modifications and test cutting a workpiece to your satisfaction. The re-control service(s) will provide you and your team exceptional value and increased efficiency. Therefore, it is our pleasure to offer this quotation for the full re-control of your Lorenz LS-180 Gear Shaper program. We appreciate your considering Machine Tool Builders, Inc. for this project and we look appreciate the opportunity to be of service. If you have any questions regarding this quote, please feel free to contact us anytime.

9 Remove old servo motors and install new servo motors.
10 MTB will check and report on all axes positioning and performance.
11 No mechanical repairs will be undertaken unless required to complete the recontrol. Should MTB identify any mechanical issues during the recontrol we will bring them to your attention and a course of action can be determined at that time. Please note above items stated the may be part of a separate mechanical repair. This line also serves to notify that more mechanical issues may be found that must be addressed during re-control program.

Hydraulic:
12 MTB will interface the new CNC/PLC with the existing hydraulic system. However no hydraulic system modifications will be undertaken unless required to complete the recontrol. Please refer to section 11, above, for details.
