Sprint Z3 and the parallel kinematic concept: Three parallel linear axis drives are mounted radially equispaced in a barrel-shaped headstock. The spindle platform is connected to each drive by means of rigid levers with a simple pivot at one end, and a ball joint at the other end. A high performance motor spindle is mounted to the spindle platform.
ECOSPEED F 2040/2540
Unique drive concept due to parallel kinematic machining head Sprint Z3
No manual rework required due to high machining quality and outstanding surface quality
Rapid cutting of workpieces through full 5-axis machining and excellent acceleration in all axes
5-axis machining center
Scharmann has developed the ECOSPEED F for high-speed machining of mediumsized aluminium structural components. The horizontal spindle arrangement, the vertical pallet arrangement and the Sprint Z3 parallel kinematic machining head, which delivers high travel speeds (50 m/min) and accelerations (9.81 m/s²), all come from the successful ECOSPEED.
What sets the F version apart from the standard ECOSPEED is that the machine column is stationary. The pallet travels in the X direction on the vertically arranged table group. The ECOSPEED F is equipped with a rotating double pallet station, located parallel to the X-axis, which enables component loading and unloading during the machining cycle.

Innovative Solutions
Due to proven components the machine offers much higher availability as traditional machine concepts.
High acceleration / deceleration of 1 G in all axes.
The machine concept is valid as the world's most productive solution for the machining of aluminum structural parts at highest surface finish quality.
Automatic change of head attachments like angular milling heads.
The machine can be equipped with a pallet system. Also a flexible manucaturing system is possible.
Ergonomic part loading in horizontal position.
Siemens 840 D with Operate
The high performance spindle offers 30,000 rpm at 120 kW (S1) power and 83 Nm (S1) torque.
