COMPLETE PRODUCTION IN A SINGLE CLAMPING CYCLE.

 March 2014     

The specialists at Weico Mechanical and Metal Engineering in Feldthurns, South Tyrol, have seen how the MAXXMILL 500 has met and exceeded this expectation. A shorter production time and machining in a single clamping cycle result in greater efficiency and precision.

Complete production in a single clamping cycle.

Flexibility with lots of options
Based on their intensive use of the machine in practise up to
now, the two founders of the company feel fully vindicated in
their choice. „It has enhanced our flexibility, both in that we
can now choose from a wider range of cutting tools and can
perform machining over five axes in a single clamping cycle.
This machine has enabled us to achieve the short lead-times
that our customers expect,“ points out Hubert Weissteiner, the
engineer. And Christof, the „economist“, also highlights the
competitive costs of the finished parts.
Efficiency for SMEs
MAXXMILL 500 users can manufacture complete workpieces with
edge lengths of 500 x 500 x 475 mm along five axes, efficiently
and with precision, and in a single clamping cycle. Machining on
five sides without having to reclamp brings about financial and
quality-related advantages for small and medium-sized enterprises.
Small or medium-batch series, ideally between 15 and 300
units, can be manufactured efficiently and to a high standard of
quality. The tool magazine holds 30 tool stations ready for use.
