The movable set-up table and a fixed gantry allow machining of large and heavy workpieces

Gantry

• The large machining area and long travel distances require an extra rigid gantry and guide solutions for the most stringent requirements
• A combination of linear guides and box ways ensure a long service life plus higher machining speeds and steadfast rigidity
• High-quality preloaded ball screws and proven Siemens servo-motors provide dynamic feed and rapid feed on all axes

Main spindle

• High drive power and a wide speed range ensure availability of the necessary torque reserves during heavy-duty machining

Tool Changer

• The robust 24-station tool changer features a dual-arm gripper for maximum flexibility and quick tool changes during production

Control

• The Siemens 828 D Basic provides intuitive, easy to learn programming features and comes with excellent support and service
• Siemens Shopmill software is included in the standard equipment. With this software even the most complex contours and workpieces can be produced with ease.

Equipment

• The workspace features large sliding doors in the machine enclosure for great accessibility and easy tooling
• Renishaw measuring systems for tool and workpiece gauging and measuring significantly increase the machine’s efficiency by providing more flexibility, shortening down-times, eliminating manual input errors and reducing waste
• A powerful coolant system combined with the included chip conveyor ensure chip disposal
• An automatic central lubrication system simplifies maintenance
