Ultra Precision Meets Industrial Grade
If you are looking for product quality improvements that only an ultra precision tooling spindle can provide, and also require the robustness of an industrial grade design, the high speed air-bearing ultra precision tooling spindles by Levicron are precisely what you need.
These spindles are available in two configurations: ASD-Cx features a pneumatically operated collet system, and, the ASD-H25 features an industry standard, HSK25 interface, enabling the use of an off-the-shelf ultra precision solution for quick tool changes, saving time and money.
HSK Quick change tool interface test at 180 mm from the spindle nose showing 0.5 µm of runout
Available in 60,000 and 80,000 RPM models, Levicron spindles permit faster manufacturing and higher levels of quality. The low error motions, long and light shaft design, thermal stability, accurate quick tool changes, and robust bearing system allow for the quick chip-to-chip time and material removal rates required by highly productive industrial processes.
Features and Benefits:
- Increase your productivity and reduce your tool expense
up to 80,000 RPM and optional HSK25 quick change tool interface
— quickly and repeatedly center a tool within 1 µm and no balancing for small tools minimizes chip-to-chip time
— excels at rapid material removal due to high power and robust bearing design
- Improve your surface finish
asynchronous error motion less than 30 nm
- Reduce your spindle soak time
reaches thermal stability in under 5 minutes
— radial growth limited by integrated symmetrical thin film cooling system
— axial growth limited by self compensating design
(bearing cartridge growth in +Z offset by shaft
growth in -Z)
- Accurately run at any speed
shaft design ensures all natural frequencies are outside operating speed range
