MECAL MC 304 ARIEL
CNC Profile Machining Center
Mecal MC304 Ariel is the most versatile machining center for aluminum, PVC and light steel extrusions. Machine can be configured with 3, 4 or 5 CNC axis. 3 axis version has a fixed vertical spindle versus 4 axis version has a +/-90° tilting spindle. In 5 axis version, spindle can rotate around two different axis (A: +/- 120°, B: +/- 220°) enabling complex operations such as compound miter saw blade cuts and variable angle notches. It can be equipped with manual, head driven (DPM) or self motorized (MMI) clamps. Machine can work in pendulum mode that allows the operator to load/unload one side while the machine is still working on the safe zone.
- • Spindle power: 7.5kW (3 and 4 axis version), 10kW (5 axis version)
- • Max saw blade diameter: 400mm
- • Axes slide on precision profile guides with ball screw and are driven by servo motors operated by state of the art servo-drive systems
- • Work piece clamp bars slide on precision linear guide rails
- • Working area can be divided in two zones so that two separate working stations can be utilized
- • By using the disc cutter, it is possible to carry out end-milling operations on both the ends of the work piece
- • Milling operations are performed with linear and circular interpolation of the X-Y-Z axes
- • Pneumatically operated flipping reference stops
- • Tool magazine is mounted on the mobile upright beam and travels with it. This allows a quick tool change operation during machining
- • Tool cooling via Minimum Quantity Lubrication
