The EMCO swing loader. The integrated solution. Tailor-made solutions. What would highly flexible universal lathes be without the features afforded by modern automation technology? EMCO has a range of bespoke solutions for unmanned or minimally staffed manufacturing. For pre-formed blanks and parts with a diameter larger than the spindle capacity, we offer an integrated swing loader for fully automatic loading. This has been conceived to work together with the machine as one harmonious unit and is characterized by uninterrupted operation and very short loading times. It is activated using the control unit.

The EMCO gantry loader. The universal solution. The perfect combination. Decades of experience, constant innovation and ongoing refinement have made the EMCO gantry loader one of the fastest and most flexible handling systems on the market. The machine and gantry are constructed by EMCO to match each other perfectly. This results in precise, rapid integration of all units and uninterrupted processes. Our gantry enables the automatic loading of both preformed flanged parts and shaft parts. Manufacturing time can also be reduced significantly through the use of additional features such as a measurement station, marking station, filtering tank, or even mounting assemblies – a sure-fire route to economical manufacturing, even in high-wage countries.

Flexible and change-over friendly auto EMCO Vertical Turn machines. The user saves costs and programming time involved with automation equipment thanks to the integrated pick-up system that loads the chuck with parts up to a diameter of 160 mm. Short cycle times and the ample parts storage guarantee short chip-to-chip times of up to 5.5 s for two-track loading. The various flexible feeding systems facilitate the integration into production lines: pallet, drag frame or chain conveyor belts.

The benefits ■ Flexible automation: for both heavy and light parts, ample and low parts storage ■ Individual customer requests, such as pallets, drag frames, conveyor belts, and the integration of feed systems can be implemented easily

■ Short travels allow short loading times


omation solutions for Perfect Automation and integration are parts of the performance offered by the new vertical lathe VT 400 (for chuck parts with up to 400 mm clamping diameters). The automation concept enables customer-specific solutions. Since the pick-up system removes the need for additional loading systems for workpieces, machine linkage and technical adaptation are easily made to fit any customer’s individual needs.

■ Quick loading through direct pick-up for high productivity ■ Simple automation solutions for maximum flexibility ■ Small footprint of machine and automation ■ Access to automation: easy to change over and maintain


The EMCO Compact Loads. Perfect teamwork. Low price. Strong performance. "Design to cost" was the primary aim when developing the EMCO E-series. These loaders intentionally do not include a dedicated control unit and are instead controlled directly by the machine control system. This results in an unbeatably low price for the entire package - including parts catchers, alarm lamp, and interface. Of course, we also provide tailored bar loader packages for our EMCOTURN E25, E45 and E65. The technology. The loaders in our E-series can be used immediately as a "plug-and-play" solution. Their extremely small footprint enables processes to be automated even if space is tight. All loaders offer comprehensive cycle support and are perfectly aligned to the spindle lengths in the individual machines. Changing over to different bar diameters requires only minimum effort and the loaders can also be used to load individual workpieces.

The benefits ■ Smaller footprint ■ Easy to use ■ Short feed times ■ Fast, straightforward changeover ■ Option to load individual workpieces ■ Central diameter adjustment ■ Ergonomic EMCO design

The EMCO short bar loaders. Universal, high-performance. Short and to the point. Faced by ever-increasing pressure on floorspace for machines, EMCO has developed the most compact short loaders on the market: The EMCO LM800 and EMCO LM1200/1500 are the perfect solution for automatic feeding and loading of cut-to-length bars. The key advantages are a small footprint and rapid loading times resulting from shorter strokes. The technology. The loaders in our LM series can be used immediately as a "plug-and-play" solution. Their extremely small footprint enables processes to be automated even if space is tight. In contrast to the EMCO COMPACT LOADs, the loaders in the LM series are fitted with their own control units, which also enables the loaders to be used together with other machines. The controls are perfectly coordinated with the machine interfaces, which are identical on all three models. All loaders offer comprehensive cycle support and are optimally aligned to the spindle lengths in the individual machines. Changing over to different bar diameters requires only minimum effort and the loaders can also be used to load individual workpieces.

EMCO TOP LOAD. The premium class. Quality by the meter. The EMCO TOP LOAD series was designed to automatically load 3-meter long bar stock into EMCO machines. Loaders are available for diameters of 4 - 25 mm, 8 - 42 mm, and 10 - 65 mm. The oil-coolant-fed loading channel, lined with plastic shells, reduces vibrations to a minimum, even at high speeds. Bar stock is fed in via a servo motor which controls both the speed and feed force. A patented guidance system with several guide rests guarantees optimum feed quality. Time-consuming conversions and channel changes are a thing of the past. The bar loader can be switched from one diameter to another within one or two minutes.

EMCO TOP LOAD 10-65/3300 in the MULTI-LEVEL version. Multiple material supports enable even longer unmanned operation.

EMCO TOP LOAD 8-42/3200 in the SINGLE LEVEL version. Pieces of bar stock are laid on a slanted feed track (350 mm) and fall into the guide channel one by one.

EMCO TOP LOAD 4-25/3300 in the SINGLE LEVEL version. Pieces of bar stock are laid on a slanted feed track (350 mm) and fall into the guide channel one by one.


[ Technology]

The benefits ■ Optimized length through use of a releasable feeder ■ Programmable diameter adjustment on the control panel ■ Servo-controlled feed motor (programmable) ■ Oddments ejected to the front or rear ■ Longitudinal sliding unit (approx. 800 mm) ■ Quick-change systems result in lower changeover effort ■ Extremely short setup time of just 1 to 2 minutes ■ No changeover sets required thanks to the patented guidance system

■ Includes installation accessories

Standard guide rests (8-42 and 10-65) Integrated and automatic travelling guide rests center the bar stock at several points and enable to material to be fed through in the optimal manner. A patented system with great results: High rotational speeds, economical cutting data, and excellent productivity.

Standard guide rest (4-25) When machining smaller items of bar stock, the integrated guide rest ensures improved centering and reduces vibrations.

Unloading through the counter spindle The length of the workpieces determines the distance between the centers on the lathe. The "unloading through the counter spindle" option enables long workpieces to be manufactured using compact machines with short dimensions. Machined parts, whether round or contoured, are transported onward easily through the counter spindle. Long parts are stored on a sloping surface or on a chain feeding system. This enables the extremely efficient manufacturing of typical shaft parts such as piston rods, cylinder tubes, drills, drive shafts, shock absorbers, and many more. On machines without counter spindles, long workpieces may also be unloaded using modified tailstock slides.

MAXXTURN 45 with unloading through the counter spindle Workpieces measuring up to 1,000 mm in length and up to a maximum of 32 mm in diameter may be unloaded through the counter spindle. Short parts measuring up to 120 mm in length are unloaded through the parts catcher. This system may also be installed on the HYPERTURN 45 (up to ø 45 mm).

MAXXTURN 65 with unloading through the counter spindle Workpieces measuring up to 1200 mm in length and up to a maximum of 54 mm in diameter may be unloaded through the counter spindle. Short parts measuring up to 175 mm in length are unloaded through the parts catcher. This system can also be installed on the HYPERTURN 665.
