Underfloor lathe PUS 1435/80 CNC

Basic Characteristics and Advantages

• New, so far unused technical solution of the supporting and driving roller sets enables the lathe to be used for all types of rail vehicles without the necessity of centering and surcharging the axle.
• Possibility of machining the axle on a disassembled bogie.
• Synchronous machining with two completely independent cross supports.
• Simple and quick clamping of machined wheelset without operator´s intervention.
• Automatic centering of wheelset to the axis of machining.
• Automatic leveling of axle horizontal axis before and in the course of machining.
• Automatic lifting of not machined wheelset to avoid the impact of possibly deformed bogie on the machining process.
• Quick measurement of running profile wear and of the diameters of all wheels of rake  always simultaneously on both axles of one bogie, including the printout of  measurement record.
• Possibility of bogie geometry diagnostics, including graphic visualization and the printout of measurement record.
• Costs savings due to the analysis of necessity and scope of a repair on the basis of the  results of measurements.
• Possibility to optimize the depth of machining to keep the tolerances of wheel diameters on the axle, the bogie, the vehicle and the train.
• Perfect geometry of the machined wheel thanks to clamping the axial driving rollers directly behind the tire, thus removing the unfavorable impact of flexible rubber wheel liners on the accuracy of machining.
• Possibility of machining the economic repair profiles.
• Monitoring of the machining process with a camera system.
• Possibility of supplying the accessories for machining both inner and outer brake discs.
• Elimination of the necessity to remove carriage side covers, resulting in a significant increase of labor productivity.
• Enhancement of work safety thanks to minimizing the necessity of manual operator´s interventions before and in the course of machining.
• Safe shunting of the rake (of wagons) disconnected from the trolley by a chain transport device located under the floor level.
• Check of identification of measured or machined axle by scanning the position of transport trolley.
• Efficient, user-friendly and well-arranged control system including the evaluation  computer.
• Automatic wear checkup of cutting plates.
• Support of the calibration of the check positions of the moving parts of the installation.
• Monitoring  of both control system and evaluation computer for the purpose of diagnostics of possible fault by the method of remote access from the seat of service firm.
