BF-T7 Drilling and tapping centre
CNC drilling and tapping centre — travels 700 × 400 × 350 mm, 12,000 rpm BT30 spindle. Extended travel for medium-sized series parts.
The BF-T7 in detail
Who is the BF-T7 for?
Automotive subcontractors and series production workshops making medium-sized aluminium parts (400-700 mm), in drilling and tapping runs of 500 to 30,000 parts.
The problem you know well
Parts of 500-700 mm do not fit on the table of a T6 (700 × 400 mm). A standard VMC offers the travel but not the cycle rate: slow tool changes and rapid traverse limited to 30-40 m/min drag down the cost per part.
What the BF-T7 changes
Enlarged drilling and tapping centre: 700 × 400 × 350 mm travel, 12,000 rpm BT30 spindle (20,000 optional), 60 m/min rapid traverse. 800 × 400 mm table, 21-tool magazine, FANUC 0i-MF Plus, 5.5/7.5 kW power, 3,500 kg weight.
What it means in practice
- 700 mm X travel / 800 × 400 mm table: 100 mm more than the T6 — mid-sized parts fit without compromising on clamping.
- 60 m/min rapid traverse: the same dynamics as the T6, so the extra travel does not sacrifice cycle rate.
- 350 mm Z travel: 50 mm more than the T6, giving access to slightly taller parts with standard tools.
- BT30 / 20,000 rpm option: high-speed drilling and tapping in aluminium and light alloys.
- 3,500 kg: compact footprint retained, integrates into a production line without changing the layout.
Industrial applications
Automotive: aluminium housings, suspension brackets, medium-sized mounting plates.
Pneumatics and hydraulics: valve bodies, directional valves, manifold plates with multiple holes.
Electronics: rack chassis, power enclosures, large-surface heat sinks.
