OPTIONS

ico-tool-

Depending on the number of tools we offer a disk, chain or rack in combination with robot arm. In addition, a custom designed tool changer can be provided.

ico-angular-

To maintain a high torque, we developed and produce the Angular heads in house. Our Angular heads can handle up to 5100Nm torque. Next to fix angular heads we also offer swiveling heads with a position angle of each 5° up to 0, 5°. In the range of milling heads, we also offer units with special shapes to have better access on difficult accessible work faces. The different heads are locked by a Hirth and clamped on the spindle by hydraulic pressure.

ico-head-

The complexity of different work pieces requires a large number of optional milling heads. Thanks to the Head Changer, milling heads can be stowed and changed automatically.

ico-second-

The modular design of the FB range machine tools creates the possibility to add a second spindle from FB 240. Both spindles can work simultaneously.

ico-clamping-

Depending on the specific characteristic of the work piece we have developed several clamping solutions, in order to reduce repositioning of the work piece and to have better accessibility. The clamps are designed to handle a high torque during operation.

ico-movable-

Machine can be equipped optionally with movable crossrail to obtain optimal stroke of Z-axis during the machining.

ico-workpiece-

Renishaw probe for measuring the work piece before and after machining.

ico-turning-

Vertical milling machines can be equipped optionally with rotary tables.

ico-side-

Vertical milling machines can be equipped optionally with an additional horizontal spindle installed on a side column and working simultaneously with the vertical one.
