Top accuracy during milling operations
27 September 2013
Redex has enhanced its solutions for turning tables on large vertical lathes. The latest MSR drive designs have been refined using the newest generation of drive and control systems from Siemens CNC or Fanuc.

The MSR drive is composed of two identical gearboxes (TwinDrive system), sharing the driving torque (50%-50%) during turning operations. With the help of the CNC system which manages the motor preload torque, the system is able to cancel 100% of backlash.
In addition, MSR exclusive features enable a very accurate positioning level, allowing the execution of additional functions on the C axis, without any additional mechanical devices. For instance, top accuracy is kept during milling operations with one motor driving and the other motor braking.
