SKU : 181421

The Vector series is the compact all-in-one machining solution, designed and preconfigured for complex manufacturing challenges. The machines are designed using the latest FEM analysis software. The production takes place under strict quality control in order to guarantee perfect execution. Both the tried and tested Meehanite cast and the delta construction of the column ensure additional stability of the machine frame. The consistently high-quality components guarantee smooth operation during multiple shifts.

  • Available with Siemens or Heidenhain controller
  • Extra-wide Y-shaped Meehanite column for maximum stability
  • 30-bar CTS to ensure optimum machining quality
  • Designed for multi-shift operation
  • Many customization and automation possibilities
