Construction and technology
High rigidity for powerful and precise machining
A precision spindle, ball screw drives of accuracy class ISO 5, and torque-strong axis drives form the basis for high dynamics and reliable manufacturing quality.
Thermally stable spindle unit
The hardened, heat-treated, and precision-ground spindle shaft runs in high-precision bearings within a particularly rigid monoblock cast housing.
Pre-tensioned ball screw drives ISO 5
Ground, backlash-free pre-tensioned ball screw drives support precise positioning and high repeat accuracy.
Rapid travel up to 10 m/min
Torque-strong motors directly aligned to the ball screw drives enable fast positioning movements and high rigidity.
400 mm wide bed construction
The naturally aged machine bed features hardened upper and lower guides that are precision-ground in a clamping.
Stiff and versatile slide package
Ground and hand-scraped guide surfaces as well as an additional dovetail mount allow the use of different tool holders and turrets.
Central high-pressure lubrication
A multi-point distribution system with metering valves supplies ball screw drives and guides evenly and reduces contamination by coolant.
COMEV-CNC with electronic handwheels
Direct manual operation during setup and reproducible automatic cycles in production.
Exclusive COMEV control
Easy programming and secure manufacturing
