| What is Streamline Machining? |
- Citizen’s latest innovation to dramatically increase the productivity of their machines.
- Idle times have been slashed by up to 66% and cycle times by over 30%.
- This has been made possible by newly developed high-speed processors and software for the latest Mitsubishi and Fanuc Controls.
| Main Features |
| Greatly increased rapid feed rates | Increased by over 50% for all axes whilst maintaining the same acceleration time. |
| Shockless Acceleration and Deceleration function | This function suppresses undesirable machine vibration in high-speed operation by smoothing out acceleration and deceleration where there are large changes in rapid feed rate. |
| Tool Post overlap function | During a tool selection this allows one tool post to begin moving to position whilst the other is retracting. The function is completely automatic, independent of the part-program. |
| Direct spindle indexing function | This allows the spindle to stop at the correct position immediately eliminating the delay on conventional machines due to having to stop the spindle and return to zero point in separate operations. This greatly reduces the idle time. |
| Axis movement overlap | During tool change or thread cutting, this function enables an axis to begin moving before another axis finishes moving. The operation fully optimised eliminating unnecessary idle time and reducing the vibration of the machine. |
