CNC ROVER A machining center

BIESSE's Rover A series machining centers are specially designed for daily milling and drilling operations on panels, doors, component doors and furniture.

The mobile gantry structure is made of extra-thick electro-welded sheet steel and stiffening hangers to minimize distortion during machining.

For movement of the moving column along the longitudinal axis (X axis) and in the transverse direction (Y axis), BIESSE has opted for a rack-and-pinion solution, enabling higher acceleration and speed parameters than those achievable with a ballscrew.

Controlled axis motors :
Brushless motors, controlled by digital actuators.

Hardened steel controlled axis guides.

Automatic centralized lubrication system.

Machine equipped with two vacuum pumps, 250 m³/h and 300 m³/h.

Activation of vacuum and pneumatic systems is available from any point along the machine's X work zone.

 

Working range (vertical electrospindle axis):

X= 5540 mm

Y= 1560 mm for 4 axes, 1570 for 5 axes

Z= 230 mm with modules H=74 mm /Configuration 1B and 3B
Z = 275 mm with modules H=29 mm / Configuration 1B and 3B

8 ATS aluminum worktops

1 X-axis metric ruler for correct positioning of worktops

8 metric rulers on Y axis for correct positioning of workpiece clamping systems

32 carriages 132 x 132 x H 41.5 mm

Each carriage rotates the modules every 15°

32 plugs for closing the carriages

Additional quick-fit connections for special jigs

EPS (Electronic Positioning System) automatic positioning for worktops up to 1550 mm, allowing automatic positioning of clamping devices at selected points.

An entire half machining zone can be positioned in hidden time while the machine is machining (avoiding major productivity losses).

Each carriage is equipped with a blowing system to ensure that the machining plane on which it slides is always clean.

2 X-shaped machining zones

 

Reference systems :

Rear line stop with 115 mm travel

Intermediate line stop positioned at 685 mm

Front line stop positioned at 1348 mm

4 side stops with 140 mm travel (2 left and 2 right)

2 additional side stops (1 left and 1 right)

1 retractable linear stop for raw panels.

Vacuum module 132 x 146

Vacuum module 132 x 75

Vacuum module 132 × 54

CFT system :

Vacuum system for aluminum CFT modules, for left work area

Aluminum vacuum module, dimensions : X=1250 mm, Y=625 mm, H=74 mm, for modular worktops

With this solution, it is possible to prepare a continuous surface for thin/flexible panels or for nesting, bending, etc

Control and software :

BH660 digital control system entirely PC-based (Intel i5, 16GB RAM, dedicated graphics card and network card for desktop connection)
BIESSE WRT (Windows Real Time) : Simplified system structure further enhances reliability and performance.

Statistics are used to store machine and production events for the purpose of monitoring reliability and productivity.

Industry 4.0 - Integration with factory systems
Allowing the machine to be connected to the plant's IT systems, but also to be integrated into the plant's logistics system in an automated way.

bSolid software: for the design, simulation and management of machining processes on the center
bSolid features CAD design and project, CAD/CAM design and project, 3D graphic simulation, processing time calculation, work list design, etc.

SOPHIA-compatible machine : detects, checks, reports and solves any problems encountered during machine operation.

Electrical cabinet with air conditioner

Profile return function
Enables resumption of interrupted shaping following an emergency stop. The program restarts from the point at which it was interrupted (avoids throwing away the part that was being machined).
