5-Axis Milling
AXION LU-1200
Large-format crane-type 5-axis machining center for the biggest workpieces in the LU series.
The Axion LU-1200 is the large-format 5-axis machine of the LU series — perfectly suited for manufacturing complex parts in a single setup.
Whether simple 5-sided machining or complex geometries requiring 5-axis interpolation — the Axion LU-1200 has you covered. The machine design enables 5-axis simultaneous or 5-sided machining using integrated hydraulic axis brakes.
Controls: Heidenhain iTNC 640 and Siemens 840D.
