Introduction

The Xflex series has been developed based on extensive know-how in high productivity systems for steel, cast iron and aluminum parts.

From its initial conception as a deep hole drilling machine for crankshafts to its current evolution into a flexible machining center for a wide range of parts and operations, the Xflex series has undergone a significant transformation.

Thanks to its modular design, these machining centers ensure maximum stability and flexibility in high production environments.

All with a clear objective: to provide a machine optimized for each specific part and operation.

High adaptability to different production scenarios thanks to a modular platform with multiple spindles per machining unit and up to two opposed machining units. Independent spindle Z axis available for twin spindle configuration
Multi-sided tombstone fixtures for fast and efficient changeover. Each side can be dedicated to a specific part type or family, allowing load and unload operations to overlap with machining and reducing the total number of machines required
Compatible with dry, MQL or high-pressure coolant machining
Design focused on efficient chip evacuation
Ergonomic design for tool change and maintenance activities
Suitable configuration for gantry, robot or manual loading

4 or 5 axes machining center. All linear axes provided with linear scales
Tool interface HSK-63, HSK-80 or HSK-100. Other interfaces upon request
Motorized or conventional spindle
Chain type automatic tool changer with 24 or 36 tools. Tool capacity can be upgraded upon request
Multiple tool breakage detection systems (laser, mechanical check, tool monitoring, etc.)
Tool presence control in the tool exchange position between spindle and magazine
Unobstructed chip shedding designed for MQL machining
Totally sealed stainless steel front guarding with no horizontal surfaces
Honeycomb bed design so chips fall directly to the conveyor

Highlights

High productivity through multi-spindle machining

Multi-spindle configurations enable simultaneous machining of multiple parts.
This reduces cycle times, floorspace and automation, and maximizes throuhgput in medium/high volume production.

Highlights

Modular architecture for flexible machining

Xflex is built on a modular concept combining machining, clamping and loading units.
This architecture allows adapting the machine to different parts and operations.

Highlights

Flexible production setups

Different loading configurations allow adaptation to various production layouts.
This ensures efficient part handling and easy integration into manufacturing environments.
