The Fryer XP series feature extra performance for high speed machining. Standard features include a 1.5 second high speed 24 tool ATC, an 15,000 RPM inline spindle, a high torque 30 HP motor and a super-fast 1,900 IPM rapid feed-rate. The high tech enclosure combines form and function. Combined with roller type linear ways and heavy duty FEA designed castings, the XP series is the ultimate high speed VMC.

CNC Control

The Fryer – Siemens Touch 2200 CNC provides world class technology and ultra-advanced features in an intuitive user interface. This state of the art platform provides the ultimate for 5 axis, high speed machining, horizontal machine and turning applications alike. Fast set-up cycles, one button hot keys and built in probe cycles speed the set-up process. Shop floor programming, G code programming, large program storage and Ethernet connectivity speed the programming process. 3D solid model graphic verification, handwheel run and easy interrupt speed the first article process.

FEATURES

  • One touch set-up cycles
  • Shop floor programming system
  • G code programming editor
  • Advanced graphic simulation

TECHNOLOGY

  • Advanced Digital Control System
  • Regenerative drive technology (saves 40% electric)
  • Absolute encoders – no homing needed
  • High accuracy contouring and surfacing

Tool Settings

Tool setting is done in an easy to understand animated GUI. Tools can be set in manual mode or with an automatic tool setter for both X and Z axis.

Live Tool Programming

Live tool part programming with C axis is easy with canned cycles helping you fill in information. Tell the cycle the part diameter and it will wrap it around the part to create pockets, drilling, engraving, hexes and more.

Single Point Threading

Single point threading for ID or OD is easy to do with the graphical menus. All standard threads in inch or metric are pre-configured, plus you have the ability to create nonstandard threads in right hand or left hand.

3D Graphic Simulation

Standard 3D graphic simulation shows the part before it is cut. Part can be rotated and cut open to look inside to verify ID work. Cycle time based on speeds and feeds is also displayed.
