FAQ

What is the X2T twin-table system?

The X2T system is the world's first twin table for a rack milling machine. The two tables allow for loading and unloading to take place on one table whilst the other is being millied. The result? The machine almost never stops milling which can more than double your productivity!

Is the R Series available in different sizes?

Yes! Their are 4 models in the R Series, the R2500M, R3500M, R4500M and the R5500M. The number referes to the maximum length of rack that can be milled on the machine.

Can the SW3K vacuum system be fitted to my older Kesel machines?

Yes. As well as integrating seamlessly within the R Series of machines, the SW3K vacuum system can also be fitted to older Kesel models including the RM, RMS and RMX machines.

What advantages does the automatic loading and unloading cell give me?

The robotic loading and unloading cell can be configured to load and unload over 360 gear racks without operator intervention. This can allow you to operate a night shift with limited operator monitoring, increases speed of operation and eliminates many safety risks associated with manual operation.

What coolant do the R Series Gear Rack and Profile Milling Machines use?

Our standard machines operate with water-based emulsion coolant. This is an incredibly effective coolant allowing for excellent surface finish and tool life. If oil is your preferred method of coolant please speak with our team about possible options.

Can the R Series Gear Rack and Profile Milling Machines mill helical racks?

All Gear Rack and Profile Milling Machines in the R Series have the capability of milling up to +/- 25°. For speed of operation the machines are also fitted with a fixed locator at 19°31' 41”.
