New ATRUMP Milling Machines

In the past the Bridgeport milling machine was a fine piece of iron. Today Atrump has captured the market place for high quality at an affordable price. It's just not possible to be the cheapest cnc machine while retaining a professional level of quality. Our target market for these fine cnc machine tools is shop owners who recognize and appreciate great value in cnc machinery. ISO 9001

Atrump's model xxFC milling machines utilize a quill style spindle. Sometimes it is desirable to have one mill that performs both manual operations and full 3 axis CNC programmable machining. Smaller models can be delivered with R8 taper or NTS#30 taper spindle nose. Most models come with a NTS#40 taper spindle as standard. The head on a FC model machine may resemble the type found on a typical knee mill, HOWEVER, these machines are built with specially engineered, oversized castings and quills. The B8FC uses a 7 1/2 horse power spindle motor.

Note:
A very nice feature of the Centroid controller is the way it handles the back gear on a quill type head. Atrump installs a back gear sensor switch. The control will automatically know when to reverse the spindle motor between high and low gears. Your M3 "spindle on" command will always work in the clockwise direction and the programmable spindle speed is recalculated for the different gear ratio.


Atrump's model xx
EC machines are built with a 40 taper, machining center type cartridge spindle. These spindles come with 2 pulley ratios, normal and high torque. Large diameter cutters like shell mills and face mills require a greater amount of torque usually at lower speeds. Atrump mills have provided for this. Hogging steel bases can be handled well with this model. The 40 taper cartridge type spindle is much more durable than the quill style. If are planning to place your machine into a production situation or heavy metal removal the EC version machines are a better choice.

DC Vs. AC Servo Motors

Often the question comes up:

"Should I order my machine with DC servo motors or the new AC brushless servos?"

The choice is easier than you might think.

  1. DC servo motors have been around for decades. They are well proven and reliable. Out of a few hundred customer machines I don't sell more than one or two replacement DC type servo motors each year.
  2. These motors have more torque at feed rate speeds than the same sized AC servo motor.
  3. Finally the cost of these simple motors is considerably less than a properly sized AC brushless servo motor.

AC brushless motors do have their place in modern machine tool.

  1. Ac servo motors provide higher working speeds. This gives your machine quicker acceleration and faster rapid speeds. A feature that  can be important in time sensitive applications.
  2. The costs for AC brushless motors become much closer to that of the DC motor in the higher output sizes.
  3. The overall size and weight of an AC brushless motor is considerably less than the same sized DC type servo.

Larger Atrump mills will come with AC brushless motors as standard equipment. The machines listed on this page all come standard with 29"/lbs. or 40 "/lbs. DC servo motors. If higher rapid speeds are justified for your application then we will build your new Atrump milling machine with AC brushless servos.

4th axis coordinated positioning is handled inside your main G-code program. No outside programming box is needed.
Of course if you already own a rotary table with a programming box your Centroid control can handle that too.
