Used Accu-Systems HPJ-7-96 CNC Horizontal/Vertical Point to Point Machining Center.
The model HPJ is a horizontal point to point bore and dowel insertion machining center. It is designed to CNC position the spindle, bore a hole, then CNC position the inserter, inject glue or water (for pre glued dowels), and fire the dowel into the hole. A part is placed into the work zone referencing the back and side fences. The green palm button is pressed and the clamps secure the part into place. The machining is now ready to begin in the work zone. There are 2 zones standard in the base model HPJ allowing for pendulum processing. While the one part is being machined, the other zone can be loaded and queued for machining.
WORK SURFACE
The table top is comprised of 1" thick machined aluminum to ensure a true and reliable reference point. The work surface is then covered with a 3M self adhesive, non slip material to help hold parts in place when lateral force of boring is applied. The non slip surface is easily removed if prefered and parts can be run on the metal worksurface.
CLAMPS
The HPJ comes standard with 4 quick adjust "Combination Clamp" units. Each clamp has 314 psi clamping force for maximum clamping capability.
VERTICAL BORING
The Horizontal Clamps allow a part to be loaded vertically and the mating holes for the dowels can be bored. This is a big advantage when doing drawer boxes, or cabinet construction. By keeping the machining all on one machine, you are ensured of accurate alignment of the holes
ADJUSTABLE BACKFENCE
The adjustable, solid back fence is designed to allow for adjustment to accomodate thin work pieces down to 1/2" material thicknesses and still be capable if inserting a 6 mm dowel.
SPINDLE CONFIGURATION
The machine is equipped with a 3 HP High Frequency 24,000 RPM Direct Drive Router Spindle mounted onto a 1/2" machined aluminum surface. All wiring to the carriage is carried in an enclosed E Track to prevent damage to critical components. The 24,000 RPM spindle speed guarantees the boring bit concentricity,ensuring an accurate hole size for maximum glue contact. The high RPM also allows for rapid plunge boring to be accomplished without losing the integrity of the boring surface. Pre-glued dowels can be used due to the accuracy and integrity of the hole.
18" VIBRATORY DOWEL BOWL
18" Vibratory, cascading dowel bowl mounting above the work table surface. This 18" dowel bowl can hold approximately 3,000 8mm DM dowels
DOWEL INSERTER
Our patented dowel insertion system is a straight forward design. It has proven to reliably insert dowels without the need for reallignment. The dowel protrusion length is set at a standard 13mm. This protrusion length is mechanically adjustable from 10mm to 15mm. The "Direct Reject System" automatically detects an improperly sized dowel and notifies the operator via the operator interface for dowel removal. The dowel reject slide is opened, the dowel is removed, and then normal operation is resumed.
Note: Standard dowel diameter supplied with machine is 8 mm. Maximum length of dowel is 35mm with a maximum insertion depth of 20mm. Please call if other dowel sizes and insertion depths are desired
GLUE INSERTER
The Glue Inserter is designed to accurately dispense glue into the hole in a predefined metered amount. The glue nozzle is made of a self sealing non stick Delrin material to allow for either glue or water to be used in the machine. It consists of an enclosed system using needle and seat at valve, diaphragm pump to max air pressure of 100 psi, with infinite adjustment to all valves.
PC INTERFACE
A 15" High Resolution Industrial Touchscreen PC is used for the operator interface to store, recall, and run programs. The Computer is equipped with an ethernet connection to allow for remote diagnostics and trouble shooting to be performed via the internet.
