and easily.

Comes with easy operations including representative point instruction and intuitive path correction, as well as Brother's unique machining start-up functions such as automatic machining path generation and automatic program conversion. Short machining start-up times enable the deburring machining process for variable-mix, variable-volume production—conventionally performed by hand—to be mechanized.

• STEP1
  

  Teaching
  representative
  points

  Teaching representative points is conducted by allowing the tool to contact the master workpiece*1. The number of teaching points is less than robots, and there is no need to define straight lines or arcs. For a gentle curve, a machining path can be created automatically by teaching only the start and end points.

  *1. Please prepare a cleanly deburred workpiece as a master workpiece.

  
• STEP2
  

  Automatic
  machining path
  creation

  The machining path is created automatically by profiling the master workpiece based on the representative points that have been taught. This requires less correction of the path than robots or machining centers.

  
• STEP3
  

  Path correction
  by intuitive
  operation

  The touch panel can be used to instruct correction points, and the machining path and conditions can be corrected by intuitive operation. Since correction is possible for each teaching point or area, reteaching, such as required for robots, is not necessary.

  
• STEP4
  

  Automatic
  machining
  program conversion

  Automatically converts the machining path and condition data into a machining program. No programming expertise is required, enabling easy creation of machining programs. Furthermore, advanced programming with macro programs is also possible by editing the automatically created machining program.

  

Key point ❷

Quick and easy deburring 
via easy,
game-like operations

Teaching controllers are used to provide game-like operations and improve the efficiency of representative point instruction. The low-torque function also reduces the risk of machine breakage in the event of an instruction error.

Teaching controller
(optional)

Moving direction and speed can be intuitively manipulated to improve the efficiency of teaching representative points.

Function that reduces risks of
machine breakage
in the event of
teaching mistakes^*1

A low torque function is provided to reduce the machine’s travel speed and force.
Even if teaching mistakes are made during teaching of representative points or automatic path creation is affected by teaching mistakes, the machine detects abnormal contact and stops. This function is enabled by pressing the Low Torque key on the operation panel.

*1. This function does not prevent breakage in all collision modes.

Key point ❸

Space- and energy-saving

The Deburring Center DG-1 features a space-saving design with a required floor space of just 998 x 1,656 mm. It is compact enough to be installed even in small and medium-sized factories. And with its low energy consumption, the Deburring Center DG-1 also helps achieve carbon neutrality.

Key point ❹

The large jig area is 
able to handle variable-mix,
variable-volume machining

In variable-mix variable-volume production, jig setup changes occur each time the parts to be machined change. But the large jig area enables highly flexible jig design and can accommodate a wide range of machining operations.

Jig area

Controlled by four axes, including the tilt axis (A axis) of the roller gear cam structure. Ample jig area is secured, enabling highly flexible jig design. An A-axis table (optional) is available to configure the trunnion jig between the faceplate of the tilt axis and the support.

Jig mounting example

Waste-free machine configuration enables highly flexible jig design, making it easier to mount jigs for large workpieces or jigs for multi-part machining.
