Product Detail

The basic construction of the Bridgecenter-8G #40 double column machining center consists of a bed type casting with square section support columns, incorporating a triangular section cross beam for an even distribution of weight during heavy cutting, standard linear scale feedback ensures optimum accuracy on a machine of this size. Construction of the Bridgecenter-8G #40 combines super-finish, ground-hardened solid box ways on all axes with high grade Meehanaite castings to deliver outstanding accuracy with excellent vibration damping capabilities.

A 20,000rpm, 4-step gear driven spindle is standard for lighter cuts with fine-finish capabilities at higher speeds. The Dual Contact Spindle design offers the benefits of greater machining rigidity, improved surface finish, higher cutting accuracy and extended cutting tool life.

Uniquely Intuitive User Focused CNC Technology

The Arumatik-Mi control’s unique blend of advanced touch-screen icon driven and familiar conventional control technologies make this the CNC of the future. It is easy to use, fully customizable and is loaded with technology to perfect and simplify the user-machine experience.
