SCM CNC-machining centre, designed as moving gantry - for universal use.

In 2006, SCM - following the general trend - introduced a new series of gantry machines, under the name Accord. Initially, it only was a relatively lightly built entry-level machine with matrix table on the same basis like the Morbidelli Universal, which was especially designed for nesting processes.

In 2007, it was decided to introduce a heavier built machine for which a variety of options and various equipment versions were available - for the universal use of nesting to window and door construction. Initially, both series just had the name Accord. To better distinguish them, a separation into Accord 20 and Accord 40 was introduced in 2009.

Model versions

There are two model versions, which are distinguished by their machine tables:

Accord 40

• Machine table with the lengths (X) of 3.650, 4.250, 6.250, 7.250 mm
• Machine table with the widths (Y) of 1.560, 2.280 mm
• The passage height was 330 mm.

Accord 40 TVN

• Machine table with the lengths (X) of 4.300, 6.100, 7.300 mm
• Machine table with the widths (Y) of 1.850, 1.950 mm

Equipment

The model Accord 40 has two independent Z-axes, which can be equipped relatively freely with different aggregates, according to the modular system. One can choose between:

• Working spindles with 3 - 5 axes
• Drilling blocks with 11, 18 or 32 drilling spindles
• Special Tecno router heads with room for 2 working spindles, each with its own tool changer, as well as a free space in the middle, which can be equipped with another firmly installed aggregate.

One of the two working spindles can be designed as a SCM Prisma 5-axes spindle.

Available tool changers are:

• 10-fold pickup tool changer (standard equipment)
• Additional ride-along disc tool changer with 12, 16, 24 or 78 exchange positions

Options

There were various options available, like for example pneumatic clamps for window frames, beams and narrow parts, electronic positioning aids for suctions cups as well as the automatic positioning for suction cups (easyset).
