158/ATXC-B | 11.0kW | 150mm | 18k CNC Automatic Tool Change Spindle

Bearings are the life and soul of a precision spindle. With this particular spindle model we fit HRB bearings as standard and offer an optional Premium Series Bearing from our friends over at GMN, a German specialist at the cutting edge of performance bearings. Although it is impossible for us to give you the expected life of the bearings as there are too many variables, you can rest assured that EMG Precision use only the best systems and components in order to minimise the rate of wear on your spindle, and prolong its life.

OUR EMG-AT Series spindles achieve concentricity of less than 2microns at the cone. This means that an EMG Precision Spindle gives you excellent surface finish with minimal tool wear. Working to extremely small tolerances as we do means the axis offset is tightly controlled to ensure your spindle spins and wears evenly. To see the locations where the R1 & R2 Runout readings are taken please take a look at your MODEL Specific Manual here.

This spindle incorporates our ATXC, Automatic Tool XChange system for maximum productivity savings. A lean manufacturing favourite among professional machining industries and the avid, dedicated amateur.

EMG Precision's ATX Pro Series have a pneumatic cone that enables tool change in a partial or fully automated production system. EMG Precision offer the following interface options: ISO 20, ISO25, HSK32E, HSK40, HSK63A , HSK100A, BT30, BT40, BT50 dependant on the model. We can custom make a specific type of interface should you require it. Please contact us here to discuss your requirements. You can significantly improve your productivity by choosing one of EMG Precision's ATX spindles. This is achieved by automating tool changes and removing tool length measurement after each tool change.

All our ATXC Series Spindles feature our highly effective AGX Barrier Spindle protection system that uses an 'Air Guard X Barrier' device to protect the spindle from the ingress of harmful contaminants. This is essential to protect your bearings from foreign objects that can cause damage and innaccuracies in your spindle, particular when used in harsh environments. Be confident with an ATXC spindle that you have a high level of defense from unwanted ingress.

Versatile, compact and flexible Incremental encoder

This Incremental encoder generates information about position, angle, and rotation counts. The resolution is defined in the number of lines or pulses per rotation, which the encoder transmits to the control unit for each rotation. This encoder can provide upto 1024 pulses. The current position can be determined by the control unit by counting these pulses. A reference run can be necessary when switching on the machine. Download the Guboa Encoder Manual here.
