Machining centres - Import export

High performance CNC Machining Centres with a choice of Siemens or Fanuc Control Systems. Chester's range of high quality CNC Machines, provide optimal precision performance. Our Mini Centre size is ideal for educational environments and small workshops, whilst the U320 is an industrial sized machine.

Box Jaws are suitable for heavy duty workholding on large sized lathes, large face plates fitted on Vertical Machining Centres, boring lathes and jig installations and provide a secure method of holding the workpiece.

A Chick Workholding Foundation Plate is tailored to fit the machine’s specifications. A standard grid pattern to simplify designing, cataloguing and utilisation of fixtures, providing consistency and repeatability to set-ups. Length and width tailored to the machine’s work envelope. Precision ground cast iron to 35mm thick. 50mm spaced holes, drilled and tapped, for use as both location and hold down. Sealed with chip plugs. An alpha-numeric labelling system. Minimises set up time from workholding system to system. Machine interface mounting holes, customised for each machining centre.

The Chick Indexer Sub System (ISS) combines the productivity and versatility of the Multi-Lok with a 4th axis rotary table The Chick Indexer Sub System (ISS) combines the productivity and versatility of the Multi-Lok with a 4th axis rotary table thereby converting a vertical machining centre to work like a horizontal providing: Obtain the benefits of a horizontal CNC machine on a vertical CNC machine, by using CHICK’s Indexer Subsystem (ISS). Utilize the indexer you have and marry it to one of CHICK’s Multi-Loks. The ISS gives you the ability to machine on mulitple part sides with only one clamping, thereby decreasing the cycle time and increasing accuracy of your part.

Reduce your set-up times by more than 90%. Self-clamping mechanism, constant air not required Made from aluminium or stainless steel Thermal compensation included DESCRIPTION Created for use on CNC machining centres, the V-Tech Zero Point system’s unique design guarantees the secure and precise clamping of workpieces, even under tough conditions. The pneumatic, quick change and ZERO POINT clamp features compact dimensions, extraordinarily high clamping force and is made from top quality materials. These stainless steel pull studs can be fitted to fixtures, workholding and even directly to workpieces for easy mounting to the V-Tech zero point baseplates. Pull studs are available as a fixed position type for precise location as well as types with either one or two axes of thermal compensation. Plastic pull studs are available for use as blanking plugs for receivers when not in use.

Reduce your set-up times by more than 90%. Self-clamping mechanism, constant air not required Made from heat treated refined steel Positioning slots allow for indexing by 90° Created for use on CNC machining centres, the V-Tech Zero Point system’s unique design guarantees the secure and precise clamping of workpieces, even under tough conditions. The pneumatic, quick change and ZERO POINT clamp features compact dimensions, extraordinarily high clamping force and is made from top quality materials. V-Tech clamping and location elements can be purchased individually to easily adapt workholding and fixtures for lightning fast changeovers. V-Tech receivers are also available as a . Each V-Tech receiver provides 24KN of clamping force and has positioning slots to allow for indexing by 90 degrees. The self-clamping mechanism means the force is still applied after the air has been disconnected.

Our latest machine is the VTC-300 CII which is a highly versatile vertical machining centre with a large 2000 mm table cross dimension and high-speed rapid traverse of up to 36 m/min. Productivity and efficiency are greatly improved as the machine work envelope is separated into 2 work areas. This allows the machine to be in cycle, in one work area, while a part is being set up in the other work area.
