CECAMASA COMPLETES THE RETROFITTING OF THE STAR MACHINE OF ITS INVENTORY: THE ZAYER 30 KCU 16000 AR TRAVELING COLUMN MILLING MACHINE

second hand cnc milling machine

What is the retrofit or retrofitting of machinery?

The English term "retrofit” could be translated as “reconditioning”. In fact, this term applied to the field of machinery refers to the updating or reconstruction of industrial machines to make them competitive again. These actions can be carried out on mechanical, hydraulic, electronic components, etc. The point is that these interventions lead to improvements in their productivity and accuracy. No doubt the retrofit it is an excellent alternative to buying new equipment goods. In CECAMASA we are aware that the majority of the Spanish industrial fabric is made up of SMEs with modest budgets that need to replace their machinery at reasonable costs. For this reason, our team of highly qualified technicians strives every day to recondition our fleet of second-hand machinery to leave each machine as if it were new.

In this post we are going to talk about our latest work: the retrofit of a traveling column milling machine of the prestigious ZAYER brand, model 30 KCU 16000 AR with a longitudinal travel of 16 meters. Currently, the largest machine in our inventory and therefore our crown jewel.

Works carried out on the retrofitting of the ZAYER 30 KCU 16000 AR milling machine

Our team of technicians has required two months of hard work to get this impressive ZAYER traveling column milling machine ready. A second-hand milling machine that comes from a Central European company dedicated to the construction of mega metal structures. Broadly speaking, the works that have been carried out have been the following:

Assembly of the guides, always looking for their parallelism

The column assembly

The installation of the pick-up of heads

The replacement of the guide shoes

Verification of the geometry of the machine.

The assembly of the machine has been possible thanks to the means we have. In this sense, we refer both to the professionalism of our technicians and to the tools they have used to carry out their mission. Among these tools, a Renishaw interferometer laser stands out, which allows the verification of machine geometries with dimensions of up to 20 meters. The laser interferometer is emerging as the most advanced technology to date for obtaining highly accurate information. In addition, as it is a non-contact measurement method, mechanical deterioration of the system is avoided.

Renishaw laser interferometer

Likewise, the ballbar has also been used to check the geometry of the interpolation of the 3 axes. With the ballbar a quick verification of the positioning performance of the machine is obtained. In this way, the technician can analyze the condition of the machine and detect the problems that require maintenance and determine their causes.

With the use of this cutting-edge technology, it has been possible to recondition this large-sized ZAYER mobile column milling machine to achieve a good geometry of the machine without it having the necessary foundation for its optimal operation. An achievement that we are proud of.

Highlights of the ZAYER 30 KCU 16000 AR milling machine

This second-hand ZAYER milling machine has great attractions: from a engine torque higher than normal, passing through shafts equipped with rack and pinion to the pick-up of heads that the machine has installed. This pick-up has two heads: the famous ZAYER head with 0.001 precision in the body A and B in 360,000 positions and a head of the brand d’ANDREA UT 5/500 S model that allows boring with a diameter of up to 800 mm. This duality of heads gives this machine great versatility since it allows both machining to be carried out on any type of part (metal structure, moulds, dies, etc.), as well as very deep boring, such as making large holes in hydraulic blocks.

In addition, this second-hand milling machine has fixed tables of the brand Rübenach, a rotary table of the brand PEISELER 2500×2500 mm with a capacity of up to 20 tons, a 100-tool magazine, chip conveyor, internal coolant, an operator's cabin with elevation and numerical control HEIDENHAIN iTNC 530.

Without forgetting that the machine is sold together with 3 squares, 2 prisms for supporting and machining rollers, 2 ARNOLD hydraulic vices with 200 mm jaws and a set of tools.

Another factor to mention is that the spindle of this milling machine has only approximately 1,700 hours of work. This responds to the fact that its previous owner has decided to retire and the business has ceased its activity after his retirement. So we are talking about a second-hand milling machine that could well be described as "half-new" given the excellent conditions it is in and the little wear it has suffered. On our website you can find the technical data sheet corresponding to this Zayer millling machine in our option of the menu Used machinery - Bed type milling machines.

POSSIBILITY OF SEEING THE MILLING MACHINE UNDER POWER

This milling machine can be seen under power by appointment at the facilities of its previous owner, that is, in Basauri. However, to whet your appetite, we leave you with a video of it so that you can see for yourselves that we are far from exaggerating when we say that it is a great machine with excellent features:

CECAMASA installs a ZAYER bridge milling machine in Navarra

Installation of the Zayer bridge type milling machine

In this post we are pleased to inform you that CECAMASA has installed a second-hand ZAYER milling machine in Navarra. Yes, we have done it again. Another customer satisfied with a used machine from our warehouses in Parets del Vallès (Barcelona). And we are not talking about just any machine, but about a bridge milling machine from the renowned Basque brand ZAYER with generous dimensions: a longitudinal travel of 6,000 mm, 3,550 mm in transverse and 1,250 mm vertically. To those travels it must be added its double table system. A system that allows our customer to have a palletized bridge milling machine with two working areas of 3,000×2,000 mm or a combined 6,000×2,000 mm. And with a distance between columns of 2,800 mm.

Another relevant aspect to highlight of this exceptional machine is its thousandth head, which can rotate the two bodies at the same time while the spindle rotates.

It also has internal cooling, a 100-tool magazine and two chip conveyors.

Its technical specifications make this bridge milling machine a very versatile machine for heavy machining. It is not surprising that the client that has acquired it is a company based in Navarra that is dedicated to supplying sectors such as wind, aeronautical and nuclear. A company that can machine parts up to 10,000 mm in outside diameter. The nature of its activity means that it has opted for a milling machine such as the ZAYER KPCU 6000 AR DT.

Installing a machine of these dimensions has not been an easy process, but our team of technicians has vast experience in the field. Although the foundation has been carried out by the client, he has been advised by our workshop manager. Here are some photos of the assembly process:

Installation of the Zayer bridge type milling machine

The installation has been completed in two weeks and we are proud to tell you that, once the relevant tests have been carried out, this used bridge milling machine is at optimal working levels with geometry and precision comparable to that of a new machine. Then we leave you with a video of the geometry tests carried out on the machine once installed and commissioned at the customer's premises:

Also, at the customer's request, the machine has been equipped with part measurement and tool measurement probes from the prestigious Renishaw brand. Although the integration of the probes has been carried out by Renishaw specialists, our team has adapted the machine, enabling the corresponding functions, so that this integration was possible.

We hope that this Zayer KPCU 6000 AR DT milling machine will more than meet the productive expectations of our customer. As you know from previous posts, at CECAMASA we are Zayer enthusiasts. It has always offered us great results, so it is not surprising that in our machinery park we always try to have milling machines of this brand, in all its modalities (bed type milling machines, bridge milling machines and traveling column milling machines).

Machinery and equipment clearance of a die-maker's in Zamudio (MECATEZ SL)

liquidation company mecatez

In this second post of the year 2021, from CECAMASA we want to announce that we have acquired the company through a bankruptcy process MECATEZ SL. It is a die-maker's company based in the municipality of Zamudio (Bizkaia), famous for its dedication to machining, fine-tuning and testing of dies in the automotive sector.

MECATEZ SL has a long list of assets that we are liquidating in situ from the Basque Country. These assets are divided into two pavilions. In the first pavilion are the heavy machining machines, that is:

In this sense, we want to talk to you in more detail about two of these machines due to their more than remarkable capabilities:

CORREANAYAK FP50-50 BRIDGE MILLING MACHINE

It is a milling machine from the Spanish manufacturer NICOLAS CORREA with more than 70 years of experience in the machine tool manufacturing sector. This particular bridge milling machine is quite new, since its year of manufacture is 2014. It has a longitudinal travel of 5000 mm, 3800 mm transversely and 1250 mm vertically, as well as a distance between columns of 3100 mm. It has a headstock pick-up, a 3000 rpm HURON universal head and a 5000 rpm direct output head. This second-hand milling machine is equipped with a HEIDENHAIN iTNC-530 control, an HR-55 wireless electronic handwheel and a HEIDENHAIN workpiece probe. Likewise, the machine is refrigerated in the cabinet and is equipped with several sets of cones.

It is an ideal milling machine for machining in general, for the tooling sector and even for the railway sector.

We leave you with a small video of this exceptional milling machine hosted on our channel Youtube, to which I take the opportunity to encourage you to subscribe (if you are not already) to keep you informed of our news in used machinery:

TOS WHN (Q) 13 CNC 5-AXIS HORIZONTAL BORING MACHINE

TOS VARNSDORF is a reputable machine tool manufacturer based in Varnsdorf (Czech Republic). This company can boast a long career as it was founded in 1903 and has since grown to become a large engineering company. Its horizontal boring machines are known throughout the world.

The 5-axis TOS boring machine that we are liquidating in Zamudio corresponds to the WHN (Q) 13 CNC model of the aforementioned Czech manufacturer. It is a versatile machine with high performance. In fact, it can boring pieces up to 2.5 meters vertically. Its longitudinal travel is 4000 mm and on the Z axis it reaches 1250 mm. Likewise, the diameter of the rod is 130 mm and its travel (W axis) is 800 mm. Complete with a table (axis B) of continuous rotation with a precision of 0.001º. Its speed range reaches 2500 rpm.

This exceptional boring machine is equipped with a HEIDENHAIN TNC 426 control, electronic handwheel, as well as two cast iron squares measuring 2200x700x1000 mm. In addition, it has a lifting platform and coolant supply in the electrical cabinet.

As you will see in this video, all its technical specifications make this machine an ideal boring machine for machining in general, heavy machining and also for the wind sector.

To the extensive list of milling and boring machines detailed above, it would be necessary to add other types of machines such as grinding machines, conventional lathes, compressors and so on, which are also present in this first MECATEZ pavilion.

In the second pavilion, the star machines are the 2 hydraulic presses that MECATEZ used to fine-tune automotive dies: a 500-tonne TIANDUAN YTC34-500 press and a MHG LE 1S DM-100/400 press of 100 tons of force. Both presses are very new, the first is from 2018 and the second from 2017. In fact, taking into account that MECATEZ SL closed its doors in 2019, it could be said that we are talking about semi-new machines.

Now we are going to focus a little more on the TIANDUAN press so that you can get an idea of ​​everything that this machine can offer:

TIANDUAN YTC34-500 HYDRAULIC PRESS

The first aspect to highlight of this hydraulic press is how new it is. It was manufactured in 2017. It has a maximum force of 500 tons and a return force of 200 tons. The dimensions of your work table, a bolster table, are 5500 × 3000 mm. This hydraulic press also has a 100-ton upper cushion with dimensions of 3960 × 1860 mm. This machine, in excellent condition, is equipped with a Siemens PLC, cabinet cooling and is CE marked.

Hydraulic press

In a nutshell, the assets of the MECATEZ company stand out for two main aspects:

First, the machines are in unbeatable condition. There is no dubt that the staff of the company carried out an effective and efficient maintenance of them.

And the second aspect, it is the modernity presented by many of the machines we have mentioned above. For example, the MHG hydraulic press is from 2018 and a CHEVALIER tangential grinding machine is even inventoried, model FSG-1632AD from the year 2019 with just 20 hours of work.

On the other hand, it should be noted that in addition to the machines that we have discussed, the list of assets is considerably expanded if we take into account how well equipped the company was. It had to its credit a myriad of tools and equipment: drills, saws, overhead cranes, compressors, workbenches, durometers, marbles, etc. that we are still inventorying.

If you want to know more about the machines that are in liquidation at the MECATEZ company located in Zamudio (Basque Country), do not hesitate to contact us. Write us an email at ventas@cecamasa.com or call us at +34 935 730 225 and our sales department staff will inform you in detail.
