Which means, the machine can work at maximum efficiency even in unmanned shifts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>The evolution of IMSA spindles<\/h2>\n<p>The first \u201ctraditional\u201d drilling machine dates back to 1992. In 1996 the first evolutionary step was taken: the exclusive autofocus system for optimal movement of the steady rest guide. The steady rests are mounted on a self-centering system that allows the mutual distance between the anti-vibration bushings to be preserved, an optimum driving condition for such particular tools as the gun drills.<\/p>\n<p>In 1997 IMSA introduced another innovation. A separate milling spindle from the drilling spindle, which introduces the concept of <strong>independent axes for deep drilling and milling<\/strong>. Thus by 1997, the FF-series deep drilling machines had a milling axis above the gun drilling axis. Since then, the switch between the processes does not involve disassembling by the operator and is carried out <strong>in automatic mode<\/strong> by programming the relevant M functions.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10576 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMSA_Fresatura_storia_1997-2024_k.jpg\" alt=\"IMSA gun drilling and milling spindles in 1997 and 2024\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMSA_Fresatura_storia_1997-2024_k.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMSA_Fresatura_storia_1997-2024_k-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMSA_Fresatura_storia_1997-2024_k-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMSA_Fresatura_storia_1997-2024_k-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMSA_Fresatura_storia_1997-2024_k-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The separate spindles became a distinctive feature that IMSA proposed also in the subsequent design updates, especially in the medium\/large size gun drilling and milling centers, and lately also on the smaller machines for molds up to 4 tons.<\/p>\n<p>In the latest machine designs, many existing characteristics have been updated and improved to meet and anticipate the current needs of mold makers in the most practical way.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>SEPARATE GUN DRILLING AND MILLING SPINDLES<\/h2>\n<p>On machines <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/en\/machines\/mf1000-2c\/\"><strong>MF1000\/2C<\/strong><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/en\/machines\/mf1000-2f-with-rotary-table\/\"><strong>MF1000\/2F<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imsaitaly.com\/en\/machines\/mf1250-2fl\/\"><strong>MF1250\/2FL<\/strong><\/a>, thanks to IMSA concept with two separate spindles, the passage from gun drilling to machining and back only takes a few seconds, and no intervention by the operator is needed.<\/p>\n<p>The headstock accommodates the machining heads: the ISO40 milling spindle is located above the gundrilling unit.
