At AMB 2024 in Stuttgart, ANCA recently presented a range of innovations and partner solutions. From blank to a finished high-quality tool, all on one machine – ANCA’s ultimate single setup solution for complete machining of cutting tools, including blank preparation, was shown on the MX7 Ultra. This technology ensures a seamless process that optimizes efficiency and productivity, allowing you to manufacture a wide range of tools below 0.2 Ra with reduced cycle time.

Equipped with a P-axis and a steady rest from ANCA's long-standing partner Arobotech, the MX7 ULTRA enables integrated blank preparation, peel grinding and geometry grinding in a single clamping. This allows users to simplify their processes, shorten throughput times and reduce complexity in production. A solution with 38 kW spindle power for tools up to 32 mm diameter.

ANCA’s GCX machine and gear tool technology addresses the complexity of gear tools manufacturing, this offering includes features for the design of gear cutting tools, manufacturing and integrated tool measurement, as well as providing the skiving machine setup parameters.

Tradeshow visitors discovered how this configuration enables short setup times, simulation and monitoring, plus quality enhancing features like the ANCA Motor Temperature Control (MTC) or integrated balancing (iBalance) for longtime grinding profile accuracy within +/-0.0015 mm. This turnkey package facilitates easy entry into the gear tools sector while ensuring top-quality results.
