Market forces create a continuous demand for new products and a multitude of variants. The manufacture of sub-assemblies which are as complete as possible is becoming a standard requirement of virtually every order. This calls for innovative manufacturing concepts which guarantee not only quality and economic efficiency but also the production of a complex product with simultaneous production of its piece parts. With the series Multicenter Bihler offers you a generation of machines designed to meet these requirements. For complex manufacturing solutions, each machine is provided with two fully functional operating planes, namely a radial and a linear processing face, which may be used independently of one another or combined with one another for flexible automation. The Bihler Multicenter stand out for maximum economic efficiency through joint radial and linear production of parts or sub-assemblies on one same basic machine, high degree of re-utilization of the basic machine as well as all modules, high degree of availablitiy owing to rapid tool change over and short resetting times and expansion of machine concept and linkage with other production facilities.
