Excellent swarf fall-away and good all- round accessibility within the working area are features of Omega’s vertically mounted turret configuration. Each of the turret’s 12 stations can accept external or internal VDI turning tools while coolant, in keeping with the omega’s precision and overall clean lines, is supplied through the turret direct to each tool.
Turret indexing is continuous and bidirectional with shortest path positioning being a standard feature. A factor contributing to the Omega’s outstanding reliability and durability is the non-lift mechanism of the turret – all locking, unlocking and disengagement from the turret disc during indexing taking place within the turret housing.
