Automatic Production pushbutton

In the AUTOMATIC PRODUCTION function, the machine operates a batch freezing cycle until the consistency value of 240 is reached or until the ice-cream stops increasing its consistency within the sampling interval, which has been set in the electronic card (see Chapter 6.2.2.1).

Once the cycle has been completed, the machine will switch automatically to the preservation function. Let the compressor run two or three cycles to increase the product maximum consistency even further and to obtain consequently a drier and more compact ice-cream.

Press the pushbutton pictured on the left to switch to the AUTOMATIC PRODUCTION mode: the agitator motor will start at reduced speed and after a few seconds the compressor motor, the motor ventilating fans (only for machines with air condensating system) and the electronic module for consistency control start up too; the electronic module allows reaching the ideal level of batch freezing, independently of the kind of mixture used, on condition that it is within the minimum and maximum quantities allowed for the machine capacity.

The following safety devices are all enabled: door safety catch, batch freezing safety timer, control for lack of growth in consistency and the emergency signals.

SEMI-AUTOMATIC PRODUCTION pushbutton

In the SEMI-AUTOMATIC PRODUCTION function, the operator can set a value for the maximum consistency. This is especially useful for special batch freezing or when the operator is not fully satisfied with the results obtained with the AUTOMATIC cycle.

Press the SEMI-AUTOMATIC pushbutton to switch to the SEMI- AUTOMATIC mode and set the required consistency value (see Chapter 5.3.2); confirm the set value and the agitator motor starts at reduced speed and after a few seconds the compressor motor, the motor ventilating fans (only machines with air condensating system) and the electronic module for consistency control start up too.

The following safety devices are all enabled: door safety catch, batch freezing safety timer, control for lack of growth in consistency and the emergency signals.

Equipped with a high-speed spindle that reaches up to 15,000 RPM, the C116 ensures quick material removal and superior surface finishes. Its robust construction utilizes a cast-iron frame, which minimizes vibrations during machining, ensuring consistent precision across long production runs. The machine features a 24-tool automatic carousel, allowing for rapid tool changes and versatility in operations.

Moving to the C117, this model introduces enhanced capabilities with a larger work envelope, accommodating larger parts and heavier workpieces. It is equipped with an advanced Fanuc control system that provides user-friendly programming and real-time monitoring of machining processes. The C117 also offers dual-axis linear motors in the X and Y axes, which significantly increase acceleration and deceleration speeds, enhancing overall productivity. The intelligent thermal compensation system ensures stability and accuracy, effectively managing heat generated during operation.

Lastly, the C118 model takes a step further with its dual spindle configuration, allowing for simultaneous machining of two components. This innovative design boosts productivity, especially in high-volume production environments. The C118 features advanced automation options, including robotic loading systems, which streamline workflow and reduce labor costs. The machine’s rigid tapping capability and high torque at low RPMs make it ideal for tapping operations in tough materials, further expanding its versatility.

Overall, the Taylor C116, C117, and C118 machining centers combine cutting-edge technology with robust design characteristics, catering to a wide array of manufacturing needs. Their features not only improve efficiency and precision but also provide users with the confidence that they can tackle complex machining tasks with reliability.
