Cross Tooling Columns are designed so you don't need to spend extra money on extended reach tooling. You do loose some column face, but you gain the ability to get closer to the part allowing 3 sided access, and with a Jergens Pallet mounted on the column it will allow 5 face machining with a 90 second index.
Call and ask one of our Engineered Sales Support staff to review your Up Time solution to fixture your machine.
400mm machine can run the same size parts on a 3 Sided Column as a 4 Sided Column on a 500mm HMC.
