Differential Housing: Vertical Turning Center (95s Cycle)

Summary

This page is an industry-reference summary. Customer names are anonymized and integrator names are removed; machine brands and models are used only to explain the process. It is not a New Partner delivered case.

Configuration

• Machine: EMAG VL 6 vertical turning center (1 unit).
• Loading: TrackMotion part conveyor with loading spindle.
• Workpiece: differential housing, metal.
• Cycle: overall cycle 95s.

A typical sequence is: blanks enter a tray, pallet or conveyor; the TrackMotion part conveyor with loading spindle picks a part; the machine clamps and machines it; the finished part is unloaded or inspected. The exact fixture, buffer and flow follow the public source.

Reported results

The source reports efficiency and quality benefits, without an acceptance report. No sample size, measurement period or acceptance protocol is provided, so it is not a New Partner commitment.

Applicability

For automotive parts parts such as differential housing. Best suited to stable, high-volume processes. Changeover capability and storage capacity are the main limits; calculate payback before scaling.

FAQ
