Machining Center MC 304 ARIEL 3A

MC 304 ARIEL - 3A DPM_MMI Machining Center – Powerful 3 - Axis Solution for Large Profile Machining

The MC 304 ARIEL - 3A DPM_MMI machining center is a robust and high - performance solution for the precise machining of aluminum, PVC, and steel profiles. Equipped with three CNC - controlled axes, the machine is ideally suited for cost - effective machining processes involving large profile cross - sections and long workpieces.

Robust Machine Construction for High Process Reliability

The machine frame is manufactured as a stable, stress - relieved welded steel construction and equipped with hardened linear guideways. A protective enclosure above the milling spindle, a three - sided safety fence, and a safety light curtain for access monitoring ensure a high level of operator safety while maintaining excellent accessibility.

High - Performance High - Speed Milling Spindle

The milling spindle delivers 8.5/10.2 kW (S1/S6) with a torque of 13.5/16.2 Nm (S1/S6) and reaches speeds of up to 24,000 rpm. It is air - cooled, equipped with an HSK - F63 tool holder, and features a minimum quantity lubrication system with level monitoring—ensuring superior machining quality and long tool life.

Turret Tool Magazine with High Capacity

The 12 - position turret tool magazine accommodates drilling, milling, and tapping tools as well as disc cutters up to Ø 200 mm, enabling fast tool changes and reduced non - productive time.

Intelligent Profile Clamping with Optional MAM Function

Eight pneumatic profile clamps with a clamping range of up to 638 mm ensure secure fixation of large profiles.

Automatic positioning is available in two versions:

DPM version: positioning via a device mounted on the portal

MMI version: independent positioning via individual drives

Optionally, the machine can be equipped with the MAM function (Moving Automatic Module). This system automatically detects when a clamp is located within a machining area and repositions it autonomously, ensuring uninterrupted machining and maximum process reliability.

Precise Workpiece Positioning

Pneumatic reference stops on the left and right sides guarantee accurate and repeatable positioning of the workpieces.

Large Travels and High Dynamics (Version 7,400)

The MC 304 ARIEL - 3A offers generous travels and high traverse speeds:

X - axis: 7,420 mm

Y - axis: 1,460 mm

Z - axis: 620 mm

Traverse speeds of up to 80 m/min on the X - axis enable fast and precise machining of long profiles. Detailed diagrams are available for exact determination of the working areas.

Versatile Machining Functions

The machining center supports:

Linear and circular interpolation on two axes (X/Y)

Two - side machining

End - face machining using disc cutters

Flexible Operating Modes

The machine enables:

Machining of one profile bar over the entire machining length, or

Machining of two profile bars in divided machining length

User - Friendly Operation and Modern Software

Operation is carried out via an 18.5” touchscreen, supported by mouse and keyboard. The integrated 3D CAD/CAM software and ISO - compliant programming system ensure intuitive operation and easy integration into existing production workflows.

Reliability in Continuous Operation

A CNC - controlled automatic central lubrication system with level monitoring ensures optimal lubrication of all axes. Optional remote service for the machine software supports maintenance and diagnostics from a distance.

Modular Length Versions and Robust Design

The MC 304 ARIEL - 3A is available in three length versions (7,400/9,400/11,400 mm).

Depending on the configuration, the machine dimensions are:

Length: 9,000/11,160/13,160 mm

Width: 4,300 mm

Height: 2,275 mm

Weight: 6,500/7,000/8,500 kg

This modular design allows precise adaptation to different production requirements while maintaining a robust, industrial - grade construction.
