A gas-turbine is usually composed of a set of discs, fastened onto a shaft. These are complex components in hard to machine alloys such as Inconel 706 and generally feature profiled pockets with various difficult clearance requirements.
Component solution example |
|
High-pressure coolant
CoroTurn® HP, a pioneering high-pressure coolant system (up to 80 bars) for improved chip control and tool life in turning centres, vertical turning lathes and multi-task machines. | |
|
Clamping units
Adapted clamping units for vertical turning lathes with either manual quick change or automatic tool change.
With the coolant piped through the ram directly to the spindle there are no coolant pressure restrictions (the case with turret lathes and rotating spindles). | |

| Optimized programming and optimized tools give optimized results |
By choosing trochoidal turning for the roughing operation over the more traditional ramping method, productivity can be doubled with improved security and tool life.
- Grade CC6060 allows for larger depths of cut to be taken
- Reduced number of passes required using trochoidal turning
