5-axis machining center TORRESDRILL

horizontalCNCfor aeronautics

The right solution for highly accurate drilling and countersinking a stack of different materials. The well proven lightweight, sturdy and torsion free gantry or column concept enables the machine to provide the maximum acceleration-deceleration at the highest feed rates, delivering the most demanding accuracy. A high frequency spindle provides appropriate spindle revolutions for optimal drilling and countersinking at maximum feed rates. TORRESDRILL Gantry or column Drilling Machines are built in various sizes to meet customer requirements and specifications and can be built for milling purposes too. The TORRESDRILL, can be integrated with different solutions to fulfil the particular requirements of the customers, as far as part/tooling handling is concerned. A fully automated palletized system integrated/interfaced with the TORRESDRILL allows the automatic management of hard tooling. However, the most flexible solution for parts machining is integrating the TORRESDRILL with a TORRESTOOL®, flexible tooling system. The TORRESDRILL has been successfully implemented on drilling/countersinking applications at aircraft structural assemblies, such as wing/central wing box joint, fuselage assemblies, etc. A unique pressure foot design provides an efficient and highly accurate solution for countersinking Carbon Fiber parts or a stack of different materials, CF, AL, TI, etc. A unique MTORRES developed software to offset the effect of spring back on Composite components is optionally available. This software compares theoretical vs real part shape and corrects the CNC program accord-ingly.
