Underfloor wheel lathe Type U2000-400
CNC controlled machine with automatic measuring system
The underfloor wheel lathe U2000-400 is based on the latest technology and can be applied to all rail vehicles from high-speed trains to local trains. The CNC controlled machine ensures economical, precise and fast machining:
- Reprofiling of wheelsets of locomotives and cars for standard gauge and city railways in built-in and dismounted condition
- Centring of wheelsets on the machine in the axle bearing box
- Machine mount with high dynamic rigidity and compact design
- Tool blocks guided on crossbeams (machine bed) permitting easy machining of all brake disk configurations
- Wear-free recirculating ball guidance system ensures precision over the full service life of the machine
- CNC controlled tool blocks with quick-change tool system
- Easy operation with a high degree of automation
- Highprecision measuring system for wear and diameter with automatic determination of the most economic machining
- Ideal safety devices for the operator (complete encapsulation of the machine, integrated chip deflectors and chip removal system)
- Intrinsic diagnosis with plain-language error messages and integrated help menu
- Short assembly time due to compact construction (ready mounted chip conveyor, switch cabinet and hydraulic unit)
- Simple low cost foundation
