Horizontal CNC Lathe SRE 130 WST FP

back

The SRE-130-WST FP is a CNC Portal Wheel Lathe which incorporates design features based on the most recent achievements in machine tool design and heavy duty machining techniques. The lathe is designed for fully automatic machining of new and worn railway and Metro wheel sets used in rail vehicles, with or without gear boxes and brake disks.

The machine is equipped with two saddles, provided with a vertical slide for turning of wheel profile and brake disks mounted inside the wheels or on the axle. Each slide is equipped with a quick-change tools system. As an option, the automatic tools changer can be supplied for each slide.

Assembled to each side of the portal type bed are the headstocks, with integrated drivers, centers and friction roller driving system. Both headstocks are movable for the loading and unloading functions. The guideways are preloaded, which ensures precise positioning and a stable stroke of the cutting tools, as well as a very good dumping of the vibrations generated during the cutting process.

The lathe operates in a roll-in roll-off system. The wheel sets are rolled to the machine tool from the operator's side and are rolled out after machining towards the machine tool’s rear. The roll-through system enables the lathe to be set in an automated system of several machines for rolling stock maintenance, decreasing considerably the time necessary for wheel set maneuvering.
