Homag Drillteq D500 Drill and Dowel Machine

The DRILLTEQ D-Series is a perfect complement to a nested-based CNC machining center, or it can function independently for horizontal drilling, gluing, and dowel insertion. It minimizes set- up times and maximizes production times. Solid steel construction is combined with a vibration absorbing base. Each model comes with Windows 7-based software, fiber-optic cables for communication between the drive system and the machine control, and Web-based diagnostics.

General features

• Maintenance-free motors with high-resolution optical encoders provide precision and accuracy. Digital drive control units guarantee high reliability.
• Solid steel frame construction
• SorbTech Main Beam
• Heavy Phenolic table surface
• CNC Positioning of the X, Y, and Z axes
• Digital AC servo motors
• Ball-screw drives in the Y- and Z-directions, and rack and pinion drive in the X-direction
• Automatic central oil lubrication of the pinion rod in the X-direction, as well as the linear guide-carriages of the X-, Y-, and Z-axes
• Side stops and central stop pneumatically lowerable with manual control by selection switch

Equipment

• 1 vertical and 1 horizontal drilling aggregate, each with 3 individually-selectable spindles1 doweling tool: 32 mm distance from the drilling spindle
• Glue injector with adjustable glue amount and cleaning device; engineered to spray glue as fast as water
• Standard dowel dimensions: 8 x 30 mm / 8 x 35 mm
