G/GA series double-column machining centers from Methods Machine Tools Inc. (Sudbury, MA) offer the ability to machine five sides of the workpiece in one setup, a capability which is especially critical when working with very large parts. The SDM-GGA machine line takes its machining capability one step further by offering automatic head-changing ca- pabilities, which allow longer untended operation because heads do not need to be changed manually. A vertical/hori- zontal automatic toolchanger provides fast tool changes, and the SDM-GGA Series’ automatic attachment changer makes head changing fast and easy without requiring operator assistance. “The Feeler SDM series offers a rigid structure to minimize vibration during cutting and ensure stability and accuracy in greater cutting depth and efficiency,” said Dale Hedberg, Feeler product manager. “Three oversized boxways are designed for heavy loading without deformation and, combined with a great span between slide ways, provide stable operation. An all box-way design provides dampening character- istics that are well-suited for extremely demanding applications that include heavy cutting,” said Hedberg. The 6000-rpm spindle of the SDM series includes a 22/26-kW motor and a two-speed gearbox. The low range speed produces the 699 N•m torque required for making heavy cuts in parts such as castings, forgings and plate work. For further rigidity and stability, the ram design features a patent-pend- ing four-sided enclosure to offer greater force distribution on the Z-axis boxway.
