Sauter B-Axis Assembly for CNC Lathe

Utilizing SAUTER's B-Axis technology enables the complete machining of a work piece in a single clamping on a CNC Lathe which increases accuracy and reduces non-productive times
With the Y-axis and tool magazine - the ideal solution.
• Productivity is increased through the high performance turning and contour milling of complex work pieces
Compact, high performance powered spindle:
• Configured for fast, automatic tool changing (HSK or Capto)
• Exceptional loading capacity for turning operations
• Only one tool, hence outstanding clearances to avoid collisions
Zero backlash pivoting unit:
• Infinitely variable, high accuracy positioning through AC servomotor and pre-loaded gear train (pivoting angle 210°)
• Spindle position is locked with Hirth-type coupling in 5° increments
• Direct angle measuring system ensures accurate machining of the required contour
With the combination of a B-Axis Rotary Table and Disc-Type Turret, you eliminate the need for a tool magazine.
• Infinitely variable, zero backlash, high accuracy positioning with AC servomotor and pre-loaded gear train (pivoting angle 180°)
• Increased loading capacity during machining operations
• Locking system with Hirth-type coupling in 5° increments
Repetitive Precision (+/- 0.0008 mm over 100 mm radius)Â
• Disc-Type Turrets
• Head-Type Turrets
• Crown-Type Turrets
