OUR EXPERTISE
100 YEARS | 4 GENERATIONS DEDICATED
TO PRECISION AND INNOVATION
To help us meet your demands for customisation and flexibility, we devise spindle motors – the very heart of the machine – and develop our own AFFOLTER CNC Leste numerical control, which delivers unbeatable dynamism, speed, and precision.
Over the years, specific loading and gripping systems have complemented our products, while options intended to make production more autonomous, such as the feeding and discharge of parts, have helped increase production volumes and speeds.
We also develop and make specific tools for loading, gripping,
and extraction purposes, such as:
Driving center
Gripper
Loading head
Push-part
Drum
Feedind rail
Oil impulse tank
Oil impulse feeding rail
The gear hob cutter is held on a hob spindle, with parts held in place between cleats or gripped tight. On the AFFOLTER AF160 machine, the gripping forced is controlled and set electronically as part of the program for the part.
NUMERICAL CONTROLS
POWERFUL, UNIVERSAL, USER-FRIENDLY
Our hobbing machines are all fitted with AFFOLTER Leste numerical control for up to 12 axes. Power, robustness, and precision combine with tremendous versatility to offer complex, cutting-edge solutions for gear manufacturing applications.
