3 Axis 3D milling
XStar motion's technology has been used for revamping of 3-Axis 3D milling machines.
Critical aspects:
• minimise the work cycle time in order to increase the production
• achieve a high quality product
• minimise the cost of revamping
For this kind of applications, the XS-Box solution is particularly suitable, allowing the revamping without hardware modification.
It require only the integration with the system using the XStar API function in order to communicate with the XS-Box and get the motors references.
In comparative tests, this solution is 20% faster than its standard controller, resulting also in a better quality of the finish of the final product.
Currently, XStar application has been integrated with more than twenty machines, and it has been running successfully for more than 10K hours.
The revamping is also possible using the G-Code application provided by XStar.
