Used GLEASON 13A #134924 for sale

GLEASON 13A is a type of machine tool used in the manufacturing of gears, splines, and other complex tools. It employs parallel-axis GLEASON bevel cutting technology, which makes the process of creating machined components from raw stock faster and more efficient. 13A features a pneumatically-actuated workholder and fully-automated cutting head. The workholder is mounted on a 10-degree tilt table and employs a clamping force of up to 3,000 pounds. The cutting head is adjustable and can be programmed to move up and down along the workpiece's parallel axis while the turntable is in motion. GLEASON 13A is capable of producing a range of different geometrical entities, including flat rings, knurled rings, bevels, splines, and more. It uses an indexing equipment which allows a single set-up to be used to create all the desired shapes without having to be repositioned in between cuts. 13A uses a live tooling system, which enables it to perform rapid machining of complexities that surpass the capabilities of manual and automated methods. It is also useful for creating medium and large components. For optimal operation, GLEASON 13A uses high-speed and positive engagement steel cutting tools. This ensures precision and repeatability of the machined parts, with the desired dimensions and tolerances maintained. 13A runs on a Windows operating unit, so it is capable of running integrated CAD/CAM software. This makes it easier for operators to monitor and adjust the operations, as well as reducing the time taken to create a variety of parts. GLEASON 13A is a versatile and powerful machine tool which can be used to produce precision parts quickly and accurately. Its sophisticated automation and live tooling machine offer many advantages to manufacturers, such as improved throughput, reduced set-up times, and improved quality control.
