Flexibility, efficiency and precision play a very important role for machine manufacturers and tool builders, especially when dealing with large components. These three requirements led to the development of the gantry machining centre TFS NEO with a fixed and movable crossbeam, whereby the customer chooses the table designs, controls and milling units suitable for them on a modular basis. The TFS NEO features a new milling unit and a modified C-axis (±400°) which, thanks to its enormous flexibility, can be used for efficient production of highly precise machine parts.
The versatile table moving machines designed and built by Droop+Rein have one thing in common:
Unmatched rigidity in its power class combined with highest flexibility in size and configuration.
