TWIN SPINDLE / TWIN TURRET
MULTI-TASKING TURNING CENTER

HARDINGE TALENT TT SERIES

Multi-axis machining operations

  • 8 Axes for demanding production requirements
  • Finish parts complete on a single machine in a single operation
  • Reduced cycle times
  • Enhanced features for superior performance
  • Full Y axis capability on upper turret

Twin spindels with c axis capabilities

  • Powerful 15Hp main and secondary spindles
  • Exacting part roundness, superior tolerance holding and part finishes
  • Exact synchronization for part transfers
  • Full C Axis contouring on both spindles

Twin turrets with live tooling capabilities

  • Twin 16 stations turrets
  • All stations are live capable
  • Industry standard BMT45 DIN 1809 tooling system
  • Simultaneous machining for reduced cycle times
  • One or both turrets can work on either spindle without limitations

Heavy duty construction

  • Highly rigid cast iron base
  • Designed with FEA design analysis
  • Modular construction
  • Heavy duty ballscrews and linear guideways for maximum machine stiffness and overall machining consistency

Twin spindels with C-axis contouring

  • High strength, ductile cast iron headstock housings are hand scraped to the base for optimum stiffness, rigidity and vibration dampening
  • Secondary spindle clamps the transferred workpiece for subsequent operations, can also be used as a tailstock with programmable torque control
  • Large 3.54”/90mm front bearing bore provided excellent static and dynamic stiffness
  • Low-inertia hydraulic disk brakes provide superior clamping power for live tooling operations
  • Adjustable Hydraulic actuators for use with collets and jaw chucks
  • Spindle bearings are protected with air purge and labyrinth seal systems
  • Exacting part roundness and surface finish capabilities
    • Less than 1μ
    • Less than .8 μm Ra

Twin turrets with live tooling capability

  • Twin 16 station turrets can be used on either spindle or both spindles simultaneously. Every turret station is live capable
  • High-speed bidirectional indexing (.69 second station to station) keeps non-cut time to a minimum
  • Rigid turrets accurately lock into place within .00050” (1.2µ)
  • Easier processing of parts families and fewer setups due to large number of tooling stations
  • Industry standard BMT-45 DIN I809 peripheral munt tooling system
  • Multiple tools can be mounted on a single station to increase tool capacity
  • Wide range of optional BMT-45 tool holders are available from Hardinge featuring coolant nozzles or thru-tool coolant capabilities
  • Powerful live tooling capability on all stations for radial and axial milling/drilling operations
    • 7.5Hp (5.5Kw) power rating
    • 17.5ft-lbs (23.8Nm) torque rating
    • 5000-rpm maximum speed
    • Optional Live tooling attachments up to 20,000-rpm
  • Standard Y axis on the top turret with helical interpolation function

CONTROL AND SOFTWARE

FANUC iTF dual path split screen conrol

The Kellenberger TT Series of multi-tasking turning centers features a custom designed CNC with dual processing power, speed and ease of operation to get the most out of your turning center!Experienced CNC users will appreciate fast machining cycles with the 0iTF controls powerful 64 Bit dual processing capabilities.Program both the main and secondary spindles for simultaneous machining — synchronized spindles assure smooth part transfer. C-Axis and spindle orient on both spindles accommodate complex machining. Synchronization of the tapping axis and spindle rotation allows the use of rigidly-mounted taps.

A split-screen 15” LCD display is helpful during setup for viewing of positions, distances-to-go, and programs all on a single screen. The background programming feature allows you to load the next program “off-line” while the machine is busing producing parts.

A simulated, graphic toolpath display verifies correctness of each step of the operator’s program.

Full complement of standard features for maximum performance — very few options needed!
