Condor VC
Bed, subbase and sliding cover
The bed is manufactured from highquality
grey cast iron. Strong transverse
ribbing and continuous guides ensure
resistance to bending and torsional
forces. The separate vee and flat guides
for the carriage and tailstock are flamehardened
and ground.
The bed is bonded to the generously
dimensioned sheet steel base to further
enhance the absorption properties of
the complete construction. Located in
the base are the drives, electrics, the
optionally available coolant system as
well as a large lockable cabinet for the
secure storage of collets and other accessories.
The sliding cover can be moved
over the enire bed length.
Headstock
The casing is thick-walled and manufacured from high-quality
grey cast iron. This provides the basis for low-vibration running
and exceptional dynamic rigidity. The main spindle of the
Condor VC is directly driven. The high accuracy, precision and
constant speed capability is ensured through precision angular
contact ball bearings.
Optional Equipment
such as
Angular tailstock turret head
Wedge bar chucks
Coolant attachment
and further accessories out of our vast product range

The advantages of the conventional range are ultimate precision
and operating convenience as well as refined technology.
Standard Design
Sliding cover over the entire machine length
Central arrangement of all operating elements except
for activation of spindle speed and feed
Easy, quick and well arranged operation
Entry of feed, thread, spindle speed and constant
surfaces speed data via the operating panel
of the DRO
User defined data values within the
indicated ranges
Resolution 0.001 mm
Without change gears
Extremely smooth running
Low noise level
Tailstock
To enable fine tapers to be turned, the top of
the tailstock can be moved on a guideway in
front or behind the centre line. The hardened
and ground tailstock quill is provided with a
depth scale which enables exact infeed using
a graduated collar.
Angular tailstock turret head
for centering, drilling, countersinking and
tapping
Additional software functions
for VC-machines
Fading out of the axes values via key switch
99 tool offsets
Speed limitation via key switch
Decoupling of Z and Zo axis
Apron
The apron is fully enclosed and also serves as the central
lubrication system reservoir for the carriage, cross slide and
half nuts. A central selection lever activates longitudinal and
transverse movements as well as closing the half nuts. A trip
worm interrupts feed movement when turning against the
stop. The trip force is adjustable in 3 stages.
4/4
Drive
The machine is equipped with a a maintenance-free threephase
asynchronuous motor and a current and speed regulated
frequency converter (VC) with actual value feedback. The
advantages of this new drive concept are:
Short start-up and braking times up to the max. speed
Load independent constant speed
Short speed regulating times and reversing times,
e.g. for thread cutting
A safety potentiometer allows the speed to be finely and
infinitely optimized during the processing cycle.
Mounting of the digital readout
The scales and feed lines for the digital readout are optimally
protected against damage in the working area of the machine
through covers and a cable chain.
