The Oncilla is an innovative automatic wet blasting machine designed for the processing of high-quality round shank tools. The machine has a modular design that allows for additional processing steps to be included, for example, edge honing, surface preparation for coating and post coating finishing. The robotic process ensures the cutting section of the tool is never handled, which in turn ensures very high quality, uniform finishing.
Features include:
• High-quality stainless steel blast cabinet offering a very rigid and robust structure. The main blast enclosure door doubles as a large viewing window to allow observation of the equipment when in use
• This system can produce controlled, consistent edge hones where homogenous edge radii within +/- 5μm can be achieved
• Component surfaces are well prepared for subsequent PVD and CVD coating processes, typically leading to HF-1 adhesion levels according to the Rockwell-based coating adherence standard
• Multiple different processes and blast recipes can be developed, stored and used when required for different component batches
• The machines can accommodate round shank tools between 3 - 25.4mm (0.19” - 1”) diameter and 46 - 204mm (1 ¾ - 8”) length
• Maximum tool weight is 1kg (2.2lb). Minimum tool pick-up length is 25mm (1”)
• Blast gun innovations within the Oncilla give users the ability to follow cutting edges and helical profiles. This is achieved with patented micro nozzles delivering highly targeted blast streams to selected areas of the tools being honed or polished
• Simple to use and highly intuitive colour HMI for rapid set-up and operation
• Recipe-driven parameter setting and post-process reporting for very accurate control which yields continuous monitoring and feedback for optimum processing
• Fully self-contained unit suitable for installation in quiet, controlled environments
• Vapormatt 4.0 enabled for remote diagnostics - maximising production up-time
