Circular Mills are specifically designed to machine circular faces from 6.5’ to 30’ diameter. Circular Mills are relatively compact and fast to assemble on the work piece because they do not require large bearings and housings to support a rigid arm from the center of the work piece. Instead a milling head, rotating at the diameter to be machined is supported on the surface being machined.
The machine cuts a flat plain because the wheels are adjusted to maintain the elevation of the milling cutter datum ring, which has been set to the desired plane. The milling cutter can be relocated to accommodate multiple elevations, diameters and angles required in a single setup.
XL-Circular Mills are specifically designed to machine horizontal or near horizontal circular faces from 20’ to 150’ diameter. Like its smaller brother, XL-Circular Mills are relatively compact and fast to assemble on the work piece because it does not require large bearings and housings to support a rigid arm from the center of the work piece or complex and precisely set rails to run on. Instead a milling head, rotating at the diameter to be machined is supported on wheels rolling on the surface being machined and connected by beams to a central pivot post.
The machine cuts a flat plane because the wheels are adjusted to maintain the milling cutter at a level plane by laser reference, which has been set to the desired plane. Again, like Circular Mills, many other concentric and parallel faces can be machined from a single setup by relocating the milling cutter.
3 Axis Mills are specifically designed to machine large areas such as Steam turbine half joints. The main benefit of this machine is that the milling head can travel uninterrupted in 3 Axis X, Y and Z. 3 Axis Mills use laser reference for flatness and alignment. This enables areas as wide as 40’ with no limit to the length to be machined in a single. 3 Axis Mills can also be configured with CNC controls.
CEO Machining has a range of 2”-12” Boring Bars. Our Bars can be fitted with attachments for welding or CNC Machining. CNC tool control enabling contour and large radius machining required in Steam turbine refurbishment to be carried out efficiently without the need for the operator to be near the rotating bar. Our bars can be set using bore lasers, laser trackers or good old fashion piano wires. When machining a set of parallel bores such as a large gear box, CEO Machining installs bars in all sets of bores which can be checked for parallel and position before machining starts.
