Parting Machine, Workpiece Positioning Device

Patent No. EP3414050 (titled "Parting Machine, Workpiece Positioning Device") was filed by ATM on Feb 9, 2017. The application was issued on Jul 27, 2022.

Patent Summary

A cutting machine for processing workpieces comprises a drive motor-driven rotating cutting wheel, a work table defining an x-z-plane, and a lifting mechanism for y-direction positioning of the wheel perpendicular to said plane. A workpiece positioning device includes a clamping means and a first mechanical rotating means for rotatably positioning the workpiece about a first rotation axis (D) perpendicular to the x-z-plane. A first displacement means produces relative movement between the workpiece and wheel in a first direction within the x-z-plane. A machine housing with a covering hood defines a working space. A program controller integrates control of the rotating means to automatically coordinate relative displacement and rotation, enabling successive separating cuts at varying x-z-plane positions and rotational orientations.
