THE FIRST PATENTED CNC LINEAR MULTISPINDLE

Linea Spindle is the first linear multi-spindle CNC machine built in series; a patented, standard product that guarantees an optimized price and delivery. The key concept behind the Linea Spindle design is LEAN PRODUCTION, the Japanese philosophy that is the cornerstone of the Toyota Production System, for which flexibility, ergonomics, quick setup and waste reduction are essential values.

Go from manufacturing large volume batches to the production of many different lots and small volumes AND THUS AVOID: • Wasted materials • Storage costs • Space problems MINIMIZE PRODUCTION COSTS! • Work with various types of raw material (bar, forging, sintered, cast) • Simultaneously produce two identical pieces or two different pieces MACHINE RE-TOOLING IN JUST minutes WITHOUT INTERRUPTING THE PRODUCTION CYCLE MANUFACTURE ONLY WHAT YOU SELL! PRODUCE MORE AND FASTER! CHANGEOVER WHILE STILL IN PRODUCTION! The machine features an ergonomic and compact design. Rigid mono-block structure...

THE LINEA SPINDLE'S EXTREME RIGIDITY IS ENSURED BY: A TOTAL GROSS WEIGHT OF 20.000 Kg TOOL HOLDERS THAT ARE RIGIDLY FIXED TO THE STRUCTURE, GUARANTEEING: INCREASED AVERAGE TOOL LIFE BY 50% COMPARED TO A STANDARD MULTISPINDLE DIMENSIONAL TOLERANCES AND DIFFICULT FINISHES WITH LINEA SPINDLE, BAR MACHINING ISN'T ABANDONED BUT RATHER PERFECTED. The secret lies in starting not from a full bar but from a single bar piece or slug that enters the machine pre-cut, providing the following benefits: • Greater safety in the machine workshop, avoiding frequent handling of large bar bundles • Less wasted...

The basic machine consists of 4 electrospindle modules mirrored across a vertical axis (2 per independent side of the machine), providing an X movement driven by 4 linear motors. Each set of 2 spindles opposes each other for live hand offs allowing complete front and back working of the piece. Linea Spindle is capable of executing a complete piece, including accessory machining, using live tools on additional CNC Y-axes. The synchronous C axis spindle allows for fixed workpiece machining or interpolation with the X and Z axis. Standard configuration with 24 tool holders (6 for each spindle...
