Machining solutions for the aeronautical and aerospace industries

Nov 21, 2022

The aeronautical and aerospace industries require high precision and quality across the whole machining of parts and components, from structural components to engine parts, propellers and turbines.

At Ferrotall we tell you about the machining solutions offered by the German manufacturer GROB WERKE at every stage of a project.

Grob Werke is the ideal partner for any aeronautical or aerospace project.

 

Solutions for the aeronautical and aerospace sector
1 CONSULTING AND SUPPORT

  • Expert advice, feasibility studies and development of individual solutions
  • Compliance with and implementation of specifications and regulations 

2 APPLICATION

  • Development of efficient machining strategies along the entire CAD/CAM/CNC process chain
  • Optimisation of milling paths and dynamic process parameters using mathematical models
  • Turnkey processes with automation solutions

3 PARTS

  • Workpiece-oriented product development, for example for the machining of individual blades, blisks or structural parts

4 UNIQUE MACHINE CONCEPT

  • Unique horizontal kinematics for efficient simultaneous 5-axis machining
  • Use of short standard tools thanks to excellent accessibility
  • Short compensating movements
  • High dynamic precision combined with high rigidity

5 AUTOMATION

  • Round or linear pallet storage for small, medium and large series
  • Combinable handling of pallets and workpieces with a GROB robot cell
  • Adaptive machining: in-machine measurement of workpieces with automatic generation of tool paths
  • Integration of other processes and technologies

6 CONNECTIVITY

  • ERP-integrated solutions via a standard interface
  • Individual workpiece processing through intelligent job and process management
  • Traceability and quality tracking through the acquisition of production data with maximum security
  • Production transparency through analysis, condition monitoring and status monitoring

GROB offers solutions at every phase of the machining project, from consulting and advice through to the application and definition of the part, meeting the required specifications and quality levels.

It also supports you in all CAD/CAM/CNC processes by optimising and applying efficient machining strategies.

When it comes to machining, it has a long track record in the sector with its "universal machines" with 4 and 5 axes, which can be fitted with different automation options, also developed by the manufacturer based in Mindelheim.

  • "Universal" 4- and 5-axis machining centres for aeronautical and aerospace machining

With more than 95 years of experience in building production and automation systems, Grob offers 4- and 5-axis milling solutions with its "universal machines". It also has a line of mill-turn machines that deliver the best results in 5-sided machining.

GROB 4-axis machining centres

GROB's universal 4-axis machining centres come in three models: G440, G640 and G840.

 These machines offer high productivity, reliable components and a unique load capacity. Thanks to the wide range of configuration options, the 4-axis machining centres can be adapted perfectly to the requirements of any production.

GROB 5-axis machining centres

The machining centres from GROB offer you almost unlimited possibilities for machining parts in a wide variety of materials and can be adapted to your requirements down to the last detail.

  • The horizontal spindle position allows the longest travel on the Z axis and optimum swarf fall.
  • The unique arrangement of the three linear axes results in a short distance between the guideways and the tool centre point (TCP) and particularly high machine rigidity.
  • The tunnel concept allows the largest possible component to be swivelled and machined within the working area without collisions, even with the longest tools.
  • Three linear axes and two rotary axes allow 5-sided machining and simultaneous 5-axis interpolation with a swivel range of 230 degrees on the A' axis and 360 degrees on the B' axis.
