Product descriptionThe R 80 VT PRO belongs to the new generation of conventional radial drilling machines. Its intuitive operating concept simplifies machining parameter selection and supports operators during drilling, countersinking and thread cutting tasks. The machine is suitable for single parts and small-batch production and is commonly used in maintenance, toolmaking and steel construction applications.
Highlights- Unique operating concept with touchscreen control
- Advanced electronic control of machine functions
- Servomotor-driven quill feed
- Rigid cast construction with high stability
- 3-year warranty on the touchscreen
Features & Functions- Base, column, boom and gear head are made of cast iron.
- Design includes an oversized column and a torsion-resistant boom for stable machining.
- Boom height adjustment via powerful motorized drive and vertical lift spindle; lift gears run in an oil bath.
- Swivel and travel axes engineered for smooth operation to ease daily production tasks.
- Central lubrication system for reliable lubrication of the column.
- Electronically controlled servo quill feed with large touchscreen display; drilling depth is set electronically and verified by the system.
- Operator-selectable measuring units (mm or inch) for input and display.
- High-performance coolant system activated at the touchscreen and linked to the main spindle.
- Two gear steps; spindle speed infinitely variable and displayed on the monitor.
- Upon reaching preselected drilling depth the quill returns automatically to start position (servo control).
- Thread cutting is manual on standard models; automatic thread cutting is available as an option on specific variants.
- Boom height is set via touch icon; system automatically releases/fixates hydraulic clamps and considers limit stops.
- Drill head and column can be clamped/released together or separately.
- Boom can be moved vertically without losing spindle-to-bore alignment.
- Control software provides rpm and feed recommendations based on drill size.
- Alarm screens warn the operator in case of operational errors and display machine status information.
Thread cutting option (on specific models)- Automatic thread cutting cycles can be enabled at the touchscreen for equipped models.
- Correct pitch and recommended rpm are read from the internal database depending on the tap size.
- Thread cutting is performed with automatic feed; spindle speed is synchronized with thread pitch and a depth stop limits thread depth.
- On enabled models, once preset depth is reached the spindle reverses and the quill returns to start position.
