FPS milling machines with Heidenhain POSITIP 8016 cycle control: machining cycles are set on the control panel, no programmer needed.
On the FPS 500M-digital and 630M-digital the operator programs the job directly on the Heidenhain POSITIP 8016 Touch Active control in conversational mode: pick a cycle, enter the dimensions, and the machine drives the axes itself. The control is straight-line: the axes feed along straight paths rather than along a complex contour as on CNC. The control can be connected to external programming.
Both models belong to the Dualmaster series: ISO 40 taper, 14.1 kW, 20–5000 rpm, about 2300 kg. The difference is the table and X travel: the FPS 500M-digital has a 630×470 mm table and 500/450/400 mm travel, the FPS 630M-digital 800×470 mm and 630/450/400 mm. These machines are used in toolmaking, training, and one-off and small-batch work.
For simple one-off work a universal milling machine is enough. If you need programmed contour machining, Dualmaster machines of similar size come with CNC — the FPS 425M-NC and 630M-NC. How to compare milling machines is covered on the milling machines.
| Model | Table | X/Y/Z travel | Taper | Feed | Power |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FPS 500M-digital | 630 × 470 mm | 500/450/400 mm | ISO 40 DIN 69871 | 0–2000 mm/min | 14.1 kW |
| FPS 630M-digital | 800 × 470 mm | 630/450/400 mm | ISO 40 DIN 69871 | 0–2000 mm/min | 14.1 kW |
CNC drives several axes at once and machines any contour to a program, usually prepared in CAM. Cycle control runs standard cycles — faces, shoulders, holes — that the operator sets up on the control in a dialogue.
Yes, the machine remains a universal one: a part can be machined with the handwheels, and cycles used when the same operations repeat.
