[Translate to English:] Die Bahnsteuerung TNC7 select ist optimiert für CAM-basierte Fertigungsprozesse

Precision meets speed

Delivering high dimensional accuracy, optimal surface quality, and stable production processes, the TNC7 select offers the cutting strategies and software options needed for high-performance 5-axis machining: gantry support, numerous connectivity functions, and KinematicsOpt for refining the kinematic model.

Advanced 5-axis machining

The TNC7 select provides high dynamic performance, extreme precision, and state-of-the-art user guidance for machines made primarily for precise, high-productivity 5-axis simultaneous machining. Machine manufacturers benefit from an optimally scalable platform from the TNC7 family of CNC controls.

Compact operating layout

Featuring 16-inch operating panel hardware, the TNC7 select enables compact machine designs and ergonomic, space-saving workstations. Machine operators are provided with a state-of-the-art TNC7 user interface, featuring fast response times and an intuitive layout that simplifies daily operation and shortens the learning curve.

Optimized for CAD/CAM

The TNC7 select is specially designed for manufacturing ecosystems that rely on CAD/CAM software to create accurate and reliable NC programs for complex parts. As a result, operators are free to focus more on other important tasks, including machine setup, defining presets, and monitoring the machining process.

5-axis performance in a compact design

Optimize the kinematic model

With KinematicsOpt, the control can correct for position errors in rotary axes, thereby increasing accuracy during tilting operations and simultaneous machining. Repeated measurements and corrections even allow temperature-dependent deviations to be offset. The rotary axes are measured with a calibration sphere that is attached to the machine table and probed with a HEIDENHAIN touch probe. Users define the desired pattern of measuring points and a measurement range for each rotary axis beforehand.

Dynamic Precision

Dynamic Precision allows you to achieve high precision despite fast axis movements. This technology suite reduces dynamic errors in the machine tool and ensures higher accuracy at the TCP, enabling perfect finishes at high throughput. It contains software options that improve dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and dynamic performance:

Cross Talk Compensation (CTC): Corrects position errors
Machine Vibration Control (MVC): Dampens machine vibrations
Position Adaptive Control (PAC): Adapts control parameters based on position
Load Adaptive Control (LAC): Adapts control parameters based on loading
Motion Adaptive Control (MAC): Adapts control parameters based on motion
