• Higher productivity/reduction of cycle time by direct loading (omission of travelling distance of the W-axis) and by assembling the rotary table (designed as A-axis or B-axis) in two positions (with shorter tools the rotary table is closer to the spindle)
• Higher accuracy on all machining sequences which do not need the jig boring accuracy of a W-axis machine. This is achieved by the firmly assembled fixture.
• Compact, space-saving design by omission of W-axis. "Direct" loading into the fixture (shorter than Specht 500 W).
• Due to a lowered operating height of the tool magazine interfering operating platforms can be left out.
• Newly designed disc magazine for up to 29 tools with a maximum length of 320 mm.
• It is not necessary to set up the machine bed with a 5-point support in order to guarantee the geometric features. The static weight is supported by 3 fixation points in the basic position (instead of 8 fixation points at the former SPECHT machines)
• Optional A or B axis allow simplified part flow since the parts can always remain in the same position.
• Clean working area due to the air flow that is directed from top to bottom (instead of air flow from bottom to top)
• Reduced coolant demand due to optional chip conveyor spiral.
• Can be used for many machining tasks in dry machining. PLEASE NOTE: The SPECHT 500 D is not a "purebred" dry machine.
