XS 211 HMCs are built on a "production line" using pre-assembled and tested modules selected to meet specific customer requirements. Various standard configurations of the basic XS 211 design are suitable for machining aluminum, steel, and cast iron workpieces in medium and high volume applications. Standard motorized spindles for the XS 211 are rated at 30 kW (40.2 hp) for 100 percent duty, and 37 kW (49.6 hp) for a 40-percent duty cycle. An optional 30/45 kW (40.2/60.3 hp) spindle is also offered. Both have maximum speed ratings of 16,000 rpm. Other standard features of the XS 211 include roller bearing guideways on all linear axes, three-point mounting, a column-mounted X-Y cross slide, and a choice of Siemens or Fanuc controls. Axis travels are: X - 630 mm, Y - 630 mm, and Z - 710 mm with 60 m/min rapid traverse, and 6 m/sec² acceleration on all linear axes. A 360,000 x 0.001° B-axis, NC rotary turntable with a dedicated angular position measuring system and hydraulic clamping is standard on the XS 211. Rapid B-axis rotation is 60 rpm. Also standard is a 20-position disc-type storage magazine for tools using HSK-A63 adapters. A 40- position magazine is also available as an option. Chip-to-chip tool change time is 4.7 seconds. Several automation interfaces are available for the XS 211 HMC, making it simple to integrate the machine into both new and existing cells and manufacturing systems. Standard automation options include roller type, floor-based loading systems, gantry loaders, and roller-mounted robotic loaders.
