MCR-SERIES. - BURKHARDT+WEBER

SLIDE-GUIDED MACHINING CENTERS.

The perfect solution for all applications calling for heavy-duty cutting with optimum damping characteristics, coupled with high-precision fine machining. BW offers seven different types with 1,500 to 3,500 mm (option 4,800 mm) workpiece swing diameter and 1,500 to 20,000 kg payload.

Pure power for difficult machining tasks.
MCR machining centers are very robustly dimensioned and feature high-performance spindle units. In addition to the cast-iron gantry column, extra-wide laser-hardened sliding guides guarantee optimum damping characteristics during machining of difficult materials as well as very high long-term precision due to extremely low surface pressures.
