VIRAT

VIRAT DMC CNC Machines are structured and engineered with a strong foundation. It offers a range of configurations to meet application requirements, improve productivity, and enhance process reliability. The standard features have an emphasis on machining fundamentals that is vital in real production environments. Some of the standard features include:

BT50 spindle – 6000 rpm: The BT50 spindle – 6000 rpm is a configuration with high torque for machining heavy components with materials such as steel, cast iron and other dense metals. It supports robust tooling stability.
AC servo drives and absolute encoders: These features support controlled motion and repeatable positioning.

Spindle cleaning : For cleaner operations, an air-blast system is provided for spindle taper cleaning, while an air curtain protects the spindle from contamination.
These features help ensure consistent tool seating during repeated tool changes.

Axis and Machine Protection: To protect critical machine elements from chips and coolant ingress while maintaining a clean machining environment, the machine is equipped with sliding covers, bellows, splash guards, and a standard coolant system with a chip tray.

Essentials for operator and maintenance: Mobile MPG, a maintenance tool kit, ,a machine lamp and instruction manuals are some of the essentials required for daily usage and maintenance.

What’s unique about Virat?

BFW’s VIRAT DMC Machines offer a range of features that enhance productivity, safety, and floor-space efficiency.. VIRAT differentiates itself with the following features:

• Rapid part handling and enhanced workflow efficiency
• Isolated cutting zone
• Heavy-duty cutting capability
• Compact footprint for practical installation and efficiency
• Single lift machine for VIRAT 1020
• Heavily ribbed base and column for more rigidity

For an elevated production, VIRAT DMC Machines has a set of optional features that can be utilized to enhance productivity, reduce downtime and secure a machining process. Some of the optional upgrades include:

1. ATC for BT 50 tool holder: VIRAT offers optional Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) configurations for BT50 tooling, enabling efficient handling of multiple tools. This improves productivity, reduces non-cutting time, and enhances process reliability during extended machining cycles.

2. Coolant options and chip handling: To ensure cleaner cutting environments, various coolant and chip handling options are favorable. Some of which include through tool coolants, coolant guns, scraper conveyors with chip trolleys, and oil skimmers. For machining of heavy components, chips accumulate faster. Therefore, strong chip handling protects the surface finish of end products and helps maintain a clean cutting environment, improves surface finish, and supports longer unattended machining cycle.

3. Linear glass scales for 3 axes (X, Y, Z): This upgrade is chosen when the requirement is higher positioning accuracy and repeatability. This is essential, especially for tight tolerances over larger travel requirements.

4. Probing and Measurement: For faster setup and process verification, a spindle-mounted probe for auto-work piece measurement are used. This minimizes scrap risks and enhances repeatability.

5. 90-degree Automatic Indexing Head with Auto-transfer: This optional feature enhances machining flexibility by enabling access to multiple faces of a component without manual repositioning. It is particularly beneficial for applications, where angular machining and multi-sided operations are required.

6. Reliable working environments: To improve machine reliability under varying power conditions, optional features such as air-conditioned electrical cabinets and voltage stabilizers can be provided to support consistent machine performance.
