Flexible Deep-Hole Drilling and Machining for Moldmaking Operations

Unisig designs and builds deep hole drilling and machining centers for the moldmaking industry that combine deep hole drilling and milling in a single machine to reduce setup time, improve speed and add flexibility in the production of mold tools. The company says all USC-M machines are available with five-axis positioning and equipped with absolute scale feedback for high accuracy. The Heidenhain CNC is closely connected to complex machining and deep hole drilling, with Kinematics integration and process controls developed by Unisig.

Single spindle machines with flat floor installations are engineered to be versatile performers, with the USC-2M machine rated for parts up to 20 tons and 2,000 mm (79") overall length. The larger USC-3M machine can handle 30-ton workpieces and has 3,100 mm (122") X-travel.

Dual spindle machines have BTA drilling capability for high-performance waterline drilling. Unisig BTA deep hole drilling machines can also use standard and indexable gundrilling tools, so customers can choose the best tool for the application.

The USC-M38 and USC-M50 models are equipped with 50-taper geared headstocks for high-performance milling and machining. These machines can be equipped with automatic pallet changers for workpieces, to extend machining uptime and improve workflow planning flexibility.

In addition to new machines, Unisig provides long-term service and support for its USC-M series machines. Available services include scheduled preventive maintenance programs, machine alignment and calibration, machine repair and upgrades. Unisig has spare parts inventory and factory technical support always available to its customers.
