Excellent geometric results
- Powerful and robustly dimensioned
- Strictest quality controls
- 24-hour load spectrum on BW test stand with programmable counter-loads
- Pallet loads from 1,500 kg to 20,000 kg
- Particularly high tilting and tangential moments due to low table design and generously dimensioned axial roller bearings and holding brakes for optimum machining performance
- For pallet loads over 12,000 kg, all tables have hydrostatic axial and radial bearings
| Machining unit | Made by BURKHARDT+WEBER | |
| Gearless and directly driven | ||
| Assembled by highly experienced employees | ||
| Strictest quality controls | ||
| 24-hour load spectrum on BW test stand with programmable counter-loads | ||
| Highest surface qualities demand the best possible concentricity and total absence of vibration. Consequently, BW only installs gearless spindle units in the MCµ, whose drive system operates decoupled from all vibration. | ||
| With 610 Nm, 32 kW (S1) and speeds up to 6,000 rpm, cost-effective precision machining of all materials is guaranteed | ||
| The slim but nevertheless expansive spindle design allows loading of the spindle in house with short tools optimised for concentricity | ||
| The complete spindle cooling system with linear expansion compensation ensures stable length ratios in the process | ||
| Machine tables and pallets | Made by BURKHARDT+WEBER | |
| Best axial eccentricity and maximum swing-in accuracy | ||
| Highly elaborate production of table housing and head plate | ||
| Precision bearings and worm gears of utmost quality | ||
| Extremely careful assembly with frequent coordination of dimensions | ||
| Guarantees virtually no axial eccentricity and tightest swing-in accuracies | ||
| Naturally, all table units of the MCµ series are designed in-house at BW | ||
| Production by our experienced specialists in-house | ||
| Comprehensively designed run-in tests and measurements are additional safeguards for high BW quality | ||
