5 axis vertical machining centre with trunnion table for milling and turning with high power and high precision
A robust and stable Metalquartz base frame and a dedicated boring bar for a full range of operations on a single machining centre. Ideal for roughing, semi-finishing and finishing operations on superalloys, steel, lightweight alloy, or composites.
Superior force, speed, and precision
The major benefit is having multiple production capabilities in a single solution: roughing, semi-finishing, finishing, measurement, inspection and quality control of surfaces. Meticulous design and structural optimisation assisted by a digital twin made it possible to develop a machine that combines force and robustness for roughing phases with speed and precision for superfinishing operations.
Dedicated Boring Bar
Breton Ultrix has an exclusive solution composed of a vertical boring bar rigidly secured to the vertical RAM structure. The bar is position-controlled and has powerful hydraulic brakes so it can be locked at any point of its vertical stroke. The ease with which the independent boring bar penetrates the workpiece makes it possible to drastically reduce the number of tools required and the length of the tool holder tapers. This means that turning operations can be performed with higher power and with a significant reduction of vibration.
Metalquartz monobloc
Metalquartz is a special Breton patented polymer matrix quartz compound that guarantees high mechanical strength, vibration damping, and a thermal expansion coefficient similar to that of steel.
