Overview
The SBZ 628 XXL is a pass-through profile machining centre designed for automatic machining and length cutting of aluminium profiles used in windows, doors, curtain walls and industrial profiles. It combines multi-spindle routing/drilling, flexible clamping and automated bar handling for continuous production of varied profile geometries.

Machining module
The machining module features up to eight spindles that can be positioned freely over the profile cross-section and work at any angle combination between 0° and 360°. Large servo travel ranges accommodate bigger cross-sections. Machining is possible either on the fly with a pusher X axis or stationary with a second X axis for thicker walls. Plate clamps in the combination clamping system and roller tensioners ensure secure holding and optimal routing results. HSK-C 40 tool holders allow quick tool changes.

Profile outfeed with unloading magazine
An external gripper transfers machined profiles gently to the outfeed conveyor. The clamping system positions the gripper during length cutting to ensure controlled transfer and defined withdrawal of good parts, including very short pieces. Quick-change profile guide rollers and clamping plates adapt to special shapes. Manual insertion mode supports machining of complex profiles with custom automation.

Cutting unit
An additional saw unit expands the machine capability for separating tilted cuts between 45° and 135° and for other horizontal cutting strategies.

Infeed loading magazine
The SBZ 628 XXL can be loaded with five to ten bars of 1,500–7,600 mm depending on profile cross-section. Standard equipment includes five support swing arms and eight rollers; up to nine support arms and lifting rollers are available. Residual pieces can be processed fully automatically using the loading magazine with optional residual-piece measurement.

Gripper system
The motorized gripper system positions complex profile cross-sections precisely and quickly using a linear servo drive. Vertical and horizontal adjustment is automatic using profile-specific parameters and continuous 360° rotation is available.

Profile clamping
Roller tensioners secure the profile reliably and automatically. They can travel the full bar length and be adjusted during the machining cycle to compensate for profile tolerances and ensure accurate clamping across a wide range of geometries.
