Nicolas Correa of Spain introduced a highly dynamic CNC milling machine at the recent BIEMH Spanish machine tool show held in Bilbao. The CNC miller is prepared for working in five continuous axes and is equipped with Heidenhain TNC 530/MC 424 CNC, with special functions for machine control (HS). The continuous 2-axis head includes the most advanced adjustment and acceleration features in the continuous movement of both axis (B+A).

An electro-spindle is designed and manufactured with special power, torque and speed for work in high performance milling.

It can work interlocked (multifunction) with a positioning precision of +/-2.5 arc sec.

and a repeatability of +/-1 arc sec.

Features include: * Longitudinal traverse - 2700mm.

* Cross traverse - 1500mm.

* Vertical traverse - 1200mm.

* Fast feeds - 30m/min.

* CNC - Heidenhain TNC 530/MC 424.

* Spindle head - 30kW ‘Twist’ Head at 16,000 rev/min and spindle taper HSK-A 63.

* Axis acceleration - 3m/s2.
