Ultra-Precision Machining Center | IL600
The IL600 is a four or optionally five axes ultra-precision machining center for high productivity optics manufacturing. The integrated NanoGrip zero-point clamping systems ensure for the world´s leading flexibility in diamond machining systems. The IL600 allows for turning and freeform generation of optics, ruling, fly-cutting and grinding. We offer a range of contact and non-contact sensors that fully integrate into the machine and the control system for advanced optics characterization.
Key Features
Overdrive
The Innolite Overdrive is an ultra-high dynamic free-form and micro structure generator for diamond turning. It uniquely combines the advantages of slow slide and fast tool turning for advanced diamond untrue machining. Its linear motor driven hydrostatic slide with a moving mass of only 3 kg compares to the damping and the stiffness of a standard ultra-precision axis ensuring superb surface finish compared to an aerostatic fast tool servo. However, the dynamic reaction force during high dynamic motion is significantly lower and corresponding achievable dynamics are much higher compared to conventional slow tool turning. In terms of control system integration, the Overdrive can be programmed as a standard CNC axis as well as with the Innolite DirectDrive 2D or Direct Drive 3D.
NanoGrip
Our NanoGrip zero-point clamping system interface allows for submicron repeatability in exchanging tools, sensors for in line metrology and work pieces with only a few seconds. It’s a fundamental feature for the leading-edge productivity of Innolite´s ultra-precision machines.
Individual pallets with four index positions for rotating at 90° angular steps are the exchangeable interface for the chucks mounted and aligned at the spindle (for work piece exchange) and at the Z-slide (for tool and sensor exchange).
Due to it´s robust design, turning operation of up to 5.000 rpm is supported on the spindle side. With a vacuum chuck adapter provided by Innolite, standard diamond turning functionality meets high productivity in next generation optical manufacturing.
