Features

Built In

  • The gantry frame and 180-degree head rotation reach three sides of the profile in one setup, so a raw extrusion comes off drilled, milled, and cut without re-fixturing.
  • An 8.5 kW electrospindle turning 24,000 rpm with a 12-tool magazine powers through aluminum, steel, brass, copper, and PVC and swaps tools automatically between operations.
  • Three X-axis lengths up to 11,460 mm handle full frames and long industrial profiles, with open ends for stock up to 8 meters.

Applications

Where It Works

  • Fabricating full door and window frames from extruded aluminum, light alloy, and steel in a single setup
  • Long industrial profiles that need drilling, milling, and cutting without moving between separate stations
  • High-mix profile work across aluminum, steel, brass, copper, and PVC
