Collisions usually occur when a new computer numerical control (CNC) program is first executed. MSP offers the best security for this. How it works The Spindle is deflected when the force acting on the tool during a collision would damage the Spindle bearing. With this deflection, the axis drives gain the space required for automatic emergency braking. Braking distance depends on travel speed and is allowed within the clearance gained. Thus, damage-free braking is made possible up to 12 m/min. MSP works regardless of direction and with no impact on machining speed in most materials. Use the...

The Mikron MILL P 500 U / 800 U machines have been designed to accommodate automated pallet handling. In the loading station, the raw parts are set up on the pallet while the machine is machining the workpiece on the other pallet. This greatly increases the productivity of the machine. + Very good access to the workpiece + The pallets in the loading station can be manually rotated 360 degrees. • Small footprint • 24/7 production • Efficient machining for highest productivity • Best total cost of integration and ownership To increase your autonomy, there are very compact pallet magazines...
