Aluminium cutting - Import export

In the aviation industry, there is an increasing trend towards larger and larger monolithic structural components. The ECOSPEED series, featuring a horizontal spindle and a vertical pallet arrangement, has been specially developed for highspeed machining of these large structural aluminum components. A pallet transport system feeds pallets to the machine, the storage station and the loading/unloading station. The innovative Sprint Z3 parallel kinematic machining head, provides the user with the optimum 5axis simultaneous machining process. At a maximum cutting volume of up to 8,000 cm3/min, the machine concept is the world's most productive solution for cutting aluminium structural components, drastically cutting both production times and costs.

Ecospeed is the synonym for the most economic method of machining complex aluminium structural components in the aerospace industry. Based around its’ unique parallel kinematics Sprint Z3 machining head, Ecospeed represents by far the most productive solution for the high performance cutting of monolithic aluminium aerostructures. The Ecospeed family has been continuously developed to meet market demands. New challenges imposed by the market are implemented within a team framework, by maintaining intensive contact with end users. Yet another recent customerdriven requirement placed on the Starrag Technology GmbH management board was to supply an optimized economic Ecospeed variant for machining long and narrow structural components at high cutting rates and using complex 5axis geometries with 5side access to the work piece.
