VARIAXIS j-600AM (Additive Manufacturing) Vertical Machining Center features an innovative Wire Arc-type metal deposition system.
The technology takes the additive process to whole new levels in terms of speed, allowing shops to quickly and easily grow part features then employ the machine’s advanced 5-axis multi-surface subtractive capabilities to produce high-precision parts complete in single setups.
Its Wire Arc system incorporates a standard wire arc-welding head mounted on the machine’s headstock to deposit material layer by layer and grow near-net-shape 3D forms. The system deposits material faster because it uses wire instead of metal power.
Features:
- 5-axis multi-surface subtractive capabilities to produce precision parts
- incorporates standard wire arc-welding head
- capable of both additive and subtractive operations
- 12,000-rpm B-axis tilt spindle & C-axis indexing table
- suitable for wide variety of applications
