Lathe and Wheel Presses Retrofit
With more than 40 projects for Rail Customers, CNC Design
is a world leader in Automation, Measuring Technology and
Reporting System for Wheel Lathes and Wheel Presses.
CNC Design have developed worlds leading
CNC technology for Wheel lathes for Machine Tool builders
who manufacture New Machines and for Retrofitting of existing
Underfloor and Above Floor Wheel Lathes used by Railway Maintenance
Workshops for re-profiling wheel sets.
Siemens Digital CNC control SINUMERIK 840D
and SIMODRIVE 611D are used as the technology platform.
Technology developed for Wheel Lathes includes:
- Wheel profile and diameter measurement, recording and
display
- Intelligent machining cycles for wheel profiles.
- Reporting and database management.
- Tool life, wear and breakage monitoring
- Friendly HMI for ease of use.
Wheel Presses Technology
- PC based controller
- Force v Distance monitoring
- Wheel runout and concentricity.
- Automatic pressing cycles
- Data storage for all measuring data with traceability.
- Servo positioning of hydraulic ram
