The BF-500A5 in detail
Who is the BF-500A5 for?
Aerospace subcontractors, mouldmakers and prosthesis manufacturers machining medium-sized 5-axis parts (400-500 mm) in aluminium, titanium and pre-hardened steel.
The problem you know well
Complex 400-500 mm aerospace parts require a 5-axis machine with a sufficient working envelope and spindle torque suited to titanium. Small 5-axis machines lack travel; large ones tie up capital unnecessarily.
What the BF-500A5 changes
Simultaneous 5-axis, travels 500 × 520 × 450 mm, 18,000 rpm HSK-A63 spindle, 18.5/22 kW, repeatability ±0.002 mm. Rapid traverse 48 m/min, 32-tool magazine, Siemens SINUMERIK ONE with RTCP, weight 8,000 kg.
What it means in practice
- Travels 500 × 520 × 450 mm: working envelope sized for aerospace parts and medium-sized mould cavities.
- 18.5/22 kW HSK-A63: enough torque for titanium roughing with Ø32 tools, high-speed aluminium finishing.
- 32-tool magazine: unattended running for complex multi-operation 5-axis parts.
- Repeatability ±0.002 mm: aerospace tolerances held in series production on freeform surfaces.
- 48 m/min rapid traverse: fast repositioning between machining zones — time saved on multi-pocket parts.
Industrial applications
Aerospace: aluminium and titanium structural parts, engine mounts, complex brackets.
Moulds: cavities with complex 3D geometry, multi-cavity mould cores.
Medical: titanium and CoCr hip and knee prostheses, custom implants.
