Modul ZFWZ 250/4 S/N 9432

 full recertification and recontrol

 

As with all used equipment MTB places for sale, this machine was totally cleaned, hydraulic and coolant systems drained and cleaned, all gib adjustments were checked, all worm lashes were adjusted, all broken or missing parts were replaced, all oil leaks repaired and then the machine was fully recertified using the ISO/DIN 6545 alignment standards for gear hobbing machines.

 

This machine was recontrolled using a NUM Axium Power CNC controlling two NUM MDLU2 digital Servo drives for the X and Z axes. All the old German controls were eliminated and replaced with new IEC components. New Heidenhain linear scales were installed on the two axes, for accurate size control and crowning capability. For cost reasons, the change gears were left in place to control the index and helical functions.

 

We also removed the old PIV system and installed a Vector drive and Vector duty rated motor to control the hob speed.

 

The new electrical cabinet we installed was painted to match the original machine colors.
