Movable-bridge Movable-bridge machining center specifically designed for high speed processing of plastic and composite materials, providing exceptional motion dynamics to ensure high productivity. The advanced structural design avoids machining vibration and achives excellent finishing quality: • - broad variety of working areas (single zone or tandem cycle) • - a dedicated software for trimming path self-learning enables creating the cutting program directly from the sample workpiece on the machining centre, thanks also to a mobile push-button panel complete with joystick and touch-screen for the control of all CNC functions FASTER PROGRAMMING AND CONTOURING Avoids any repositioning operations thanks to the CX5 operating unit, characterized by the the largest rotary XY axis on the market. 15% reduction in cutting times and programming of contouring cuts REDUCTION IN CYCLE TIME RESPONSIVENESS AND SPEED WHERE AND WHEN NEEDED Dedicated dynamics, during both acceleration and braking, for all cutting cycle phases. 13% reduction in comprehensive machining times due to shorter repositioning spaces required between one phase and the next. OPTIMIZATION AND USE OF WORK VOLUMES WITH NON-CONFIGURABILITY LIMITATIONS Minimum space taken up and maximum use of factory space in proportion to workable cubic space for all versions. Its compact, hard structure was designed to grip to the working stroke as much as possible. Pendulum processing available with Athena’s vast configurability, extractable (APC) and rotating (TR) tables make it the perfect solution for trimming plastic materials.
