Solutions for machine tools

CNC technology for high-performance machine tools

Technology + partnership create competitive edge

KEBA has been automating machine tools for more than 40 years and is one of the few companies in the world to own their own CNC and robotics kernel. We are happy to share our experience and technologies with you in order to work together on developing solutions that enable you to rise above the competition.

Our CNC kernel has been the recognized industry benchmark for decades whenever customers are looking for high processing speeds, precision, and flexibility.

Our high-level language Lua and the direct expansions of the CNC kernel allow us to implement even highly specific requirements with power and efficiency.
The machining process is of crucial importance for the quality of a machine tool and its final product. For this reason, we develop and build precision tool spindles with magnetic bearings (6D spindles) as well as high-performance controllers for laser sources and galvanometric scanner axes.

Our solution portfolio for machine tools

KEBA supplies complete automation solutions that includes mobile and stationary panels, CNC controllers, safety controllers, drive controllers with safe motion monitoring, I/Os, servo motors, tool spindles, laser source control, and galvanometric axes.

Machine-specific solutions

Your technological uniqueness can evolve

CNC systems for laser processing

Laser in action - sparks are flying

The performance, variability and digitization of laser processing machines places extremely high demands on the automation system. Drawing on 40 years of expertise in CNC technology and many long-standing technology partnerships, KEBA offers open, innovative, and compact CNC solutions for a digital future.

  • 2D laser processing
  • Tube cutting
  • Laser micro-processing
  • Combined punch/laser processing

Magnetic bearing spindles

LeviSpin - magnetic bearing drill spindle

A machining revolution

With LeviSpin R140, KEBA offers a 3rd-generation magnetic bearing spindle.
An oscillation motion superimposed over the feedrate breaks the chips in a controlled manner.

Outstanding benefits

  • Processing speed increased by 200–400 %
  • Tool wear reduced to less than 50 %

Milling, turning, grinding, bending

Plate Bending Machine

Milling, turning, grinding and bending machines place the highest demands on the drive technology. Our ServoOne CM and ServoOne drive systems are designed for this very purpose. They achieve the maximum precision and dynamic that are possible with the existing machine kinematics.

  • Fast sampling times: Setpoint specification via field bus, position and speed controllers: 125 μs, current controller: 62.5 μs
  • Low-noise detection of all analog variables and high computing power thanks to custom-developed drive ASIC
  • Compensation of encoder errors and mechanical errors
  • Large selection of feedback systems: Resolver, Hiperface, Hiperface DSL, SinCos, EnDat/rotative and linear encoders
  • Single-axis, double-axis, and triple-axis controllers require less space and save costs
  • Passive and active supply units
  • Built-in safety technology

HMI for machine tools
