Used ACIERA F 1 #115060 for sale

ACIERA F 1 is a German-made machine tool designed to perform a wide range of cutting and drilling functions. F 1 is a 3-axis CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machine that can be programmed with various tool paths and feed rates to quickly perform tasks with extreme accuracy. With a large cutting capacity, ACIERA F 1 is capable of working with both small and large sizes, allowing for a great deal of versatility. The primary body of the machine is composed of a corrosion-resistant box-type steel frame and a cast-iron base with a 24,000-pound weight. F 1's gantry-style structure provides a large workspace, able to accommodate cutting projects of up to 146.6 inches wide by 79.2 inches deep. The tool slips into a headstock spindle with a 4000 rpm spindle-speed range and a 5-axis rotating tool carrier. This is responsible for ACIERA F 1's cutting and drilling capabilities, providing both horizontal and vertical motion for efficient motion control. F 1 features a DRO (Digital Read Out) digital display and connected potentiometer for reading control values. These provide a wealth of user-friendly features, including automatic tool-change mechanics with a tool magazine and bar-feeding operations. These features have become standard on most CNC machine tools today, but back when ACIERA F 1 was released in the late 1970s, they represented a huge leap forward in machine productivity. Other elements of F 1 which make the machine a heavy hitter in the workshop include a 30 gallon coolant system, an electronic handwheel and specialized attachments such as a chip conveyor and a pneumatically operated workpiece piece clamp. ACIERA F 1's automatic lubrication system uses both high-pressure/low-pressure oil pumps, ensuring the precision and durability of the machine tools movement systems. Overall, F 1 is one of the most versatile machine tools on the market, embodying the precision and reliability typically associated with German engineering. Its robust construction and powerful features guarantee a wide range of functions, catering to almost any industrial setting with accuracy, efficiency and safety.
