This high-performance and rigid machining center is well-suited for applications in the automotive, general engineering, die-mould, aerospace, and energy sectors. It features a BT-40 spindle and is available with a 24 or 30-tool side-mounted automatic tool changer for efficient tool management.
Built with high-precision roller guideways, precision ball screws, and a robust structure, the machine delivers exceptional accuracy, stability, and productivity. Its ergonomic design ensures ease of operation and maintenance.
To enhance flexibility and performance, the machine can be configured with linear or rotary pallet changers, 4th and 5th axis rotary tables, production systems, and full automation solutions.
3-, 4- and 5-axis VMCs for prismatic parts, dies, moulds, housings and brackets.
Size a VMC from your largest part plus fixture (X/Y/Z travel and table), choose BT-40 for general work, BT-50 for heavy cuts or HSK and high rpm for finishing, and count the tools in your longest program.
Send your part drawing, material and monthly quantity, and we will confirm whether this machine fits – or suggest one that fits better.
New machines are built to order. We confirm the lead time and the exact configuration – control, spindle, tool changer and options – with your quote.
Your largest part plus fixture and tool clearance in X, Y and Z, with table size and load to match. A 20–25% margin covers most future work.
Fanuc, Siemens and Mitsubishi are all proven. Choose the one your programmers and service partners know best.
If you machine several faces or hole patterns around a part, a 4th-axis rotary table saves setups. True 5-axis is needed for blades, impellers and complex moulds.
Installation, commissioning and operator training are listed in the quote, so you know exactly what is included.
