The A88E has the perfect chip control solution for its 24.8" (630 mm) square pallet. A high rate of metal removal is combined with excellent chip control and its center trough, chip conveyor and new axis covers to greatly improve chip evacuation. Engineered for high-speed machining of medium to large workpieces, including cast iron diesel blocks and heads, the A88E has a unique column design positioned at different heights to reduce column weight for enhanced acceleration performance and core cooled ball screws to allow cutting feedrates and rapid traverse rates of 1,968 ipm (50m/min.).
