Base frames made from HYDROPOL® comply with the requirements of the modern machine tool manufacture. A small extract of the
advantages:
-
The maximum permissible deformation and the natural
frequency of the base frame can be influenced by means of different
recipes. Due to the use of modern finite element simulation software
the characteristics (absorption versus rigidity) of the base frame
can thus be substantially influenced.
-
The extremely high formwork costs do not apply due to
the use of a steel casing.
-
The x, y and z dimensions of the base frame can be easily
modified at any time.
-
The steel casing, which can be also partly composed
of Niro sheet metals, offers protection against destruction as a result
of improper handling.
-
The structure of a base frame made from HYDROPOL® permits
subsequent welding, boring and thread cutting.
-
The base frame can be kept at a constant temperature
by possibly infused heating or cooling ducts. The air conditioning
of the machinery hall and the warming-up phase can therefore be omitted.
-
HYDROPOL® is ecologically acceptable (Eluate Class 1)
and therefore does not need to be disposed off separately.
-
HYDROPOL® offers a better thermal stability and a larger
thermal capacity than conventional materials.
-
Base frames made from HYDROPOL® require less machining
due to of the laser-cut steel sheets and the exactly compared compared
with cast iron (DIN 8570 A+B / see machining allowances of steel compared
to cast irons). The machining costs and delivery time are thus considerably
reduced.
-
The tool wear of a machine is considerably reduced as
a result of the durable and vibration-optimized design of a HYDROPOL®
base frame.
-
Additionally a better surface quality arises during
processing as a result of the lesser machine vibrations achieved.
