Machining center / BA W06

Do you machine large aluminium workpieces such as gearbox housings or bedplates? Are they around 600 mm long? Is a large proportion of your cycle times due to non-productive times? The BA W06 – with a spindle distance of 600 mm – is the ideal choice for your application. Like the W04, the W06 is equipped with linear motors in the X-, Y-, and Z-axes, and torque motors in all rotary axes.

It is a veritable 'racehorse' that combines reliability and maximum acceleration, making it perfectly suited for the machining of non-ferrous metals – including aerospace parts. With a monobloc, box-in-box, 3-axis unit and a double swivel table, it is a classic SW machine.

The BA W06-W, BA W06 and BA W04 are among the quickest machining centers available on the market. The BA W06-2W, with independent Z-axes and an integrated loading unit, is equipped for workpiece pick-up or loading via gantry or lift. The working area is extended by 200 mm in the Z-direction and swivel range is increased to 800 mm, allowing for tool lengths of up to 550 mm.

A belt conveyor (with lift) loads the workpieces into the clamping fixture arranged overhead; alternatively, workpieces can be loaded via robot or loading gantry. The W-axis, parallel to the Z-axis, has integrated rotary axes and is used to carry the clamping fixture back and forth between the loading area and the working area.
