Product catalog summary

Overview
Fives specializes in designing compact 5-axis machining centers for roughing and finishing complex parts made from hard materials. These centers are known for their high stiffness, accuracy, and secure processing capabilities. They can be configured as stand-alone units or integrated into Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS).

Key Features

Machining Centers: Available as milling centers or mill-turn machining centers.
Spindle: High torque electrical spindle with a power of 105 kW, torque of 1,000 Nm, and speed of 10,000 rpm.
Coolant System: High pressure and flow rate for increased speed and productivity.
Construction: Rigid construction with a patented "constant overhang ram" for enhanced performance.

Specifications

Work Area: Pallet diameter of 1.6 m, load capacity of 5,000 kg.
Strokes: X/Y/Z strokes of 1.95 m / 2 m / 1 m, C/A strokes of N x 360° / ± 110°.

Advanced Features

3D-model for simulation software.
Automatic Tool Changer with tool management.
Direct measuring system and part touch probe.
Spindle expansion compensation and tool breakage control.
Adaptive control and power monitoring.

Additional Information

CNC Systems: Siemens 840D sl / HEIDENHAIN iTNC.
Eco Design: Environmentally friendly design with CE certification and a 2-year full warranty.
Pallet System: Equipped with "zero point" systems and automatic pallet systems with shuttle.
Turning Mode: Option to switch from milling to turning mode with an automatic effector changing device.
