The EvoDECO, built at Tornos’ Moutier, Switzerland headquarters, is based on the Tornos Deco a-line. “The EvoDECO is designed with high rigidity and powerful spindles. Fully synchronous drives offer high acceleration/ deceleration to reduce cycle times for parts that require a lot of stopping.The EvoDECO works with or without a guide bush,” said a Tornos spokesperson. The EvoDECO line includes four mode l s wi t h 8-10 axes and 3-4 independent tool systems for part diameters up to 16 mm. Tornos’ independent tooling systems make it possible to work on the material using multiple tools (up to 4) at the same time.“Excellent swarf removal and automatic cutting oil systems; an integrated chiller unit; and an integrated, optional bar feeder complete the productivity package,” said the spokesperson. “Up to fourmotors are available on the EvoDECO for rotating tools and special instruments. Ultra-dynamic powered spindles with synchronous motors and continuous temperature stabilization allow inclined milling, complex shapes, ID and OD threadwhirling, and more,” said the spokesperson. In differentialmode, operators can even perform simultaneous turning and drilling using the guide bush. Up to 27 tools, including 21 rotating tools, can be used on the EvoDECO. The wide selection of instruments and peripherals are compatible with the Tornos Deco line. The EvoDECO has a largemachining area, integrated peripherals and ergonomics built in for operator safety. “Because of the icon-based TB-DECO software with tool library, graphic synchronization of simultaneous operations, calculation of actual machining times and various macros for specific operations (such as thread chasing, torx, etc.), the EvoDECO is also easy to program. Operators can manage multiple programs at once, making it possible to produce various workpieces consecutively on the same bar.
