What is a bridge-type CNC milling machine?

Bridge type CNC milling machines

Bridge-type milling machines are also known as portal milling machines, comprising a crossbar or bridge which holds the ram-head unit, supported on two columns. This portal can either be a fixed column, with the table travelling longitudinally, or a fixed table and travelling column, which is then called a Gantry type milling machine.

In the case of the bridge-type milling machines made by CORREA, particular mention should be made of their high-precision machining capacity and superb performance. Furthermore, thanks to the combination of rigidity and excellent dynamic performance, this bridge milling machine is noted for its extraordinary reliability and robust structure, to offer a highly flexible machining solution for medium to large-sized parts.
