Bed type milling machine CORREA A30/30 refurbished by NC Service

This is a bed-type CORREA milling machine, noted for its robust structure and rigidity thanks to the generously-sized, strongly-ribbed, alloyed cast iron modular components. This CORREA A30 milling machine incorporates the dual guideways concept, specifically designed for applications requiring a heavy-duty chip removal capacity. It features guideways with steel inserts and bronze counterslides on the Y axis, and resin counterslides on the X and Z axes. Furthermore, the design of the table travel, with roller slideways and linear guideways, substantially improves the dynamic performance of this numerically controlled milling machine.

In addition to these features, this CORREA A30/30 milling machine offers 3,000 mm travel on the X axis, as well as 1,200 mm and 1,500 mm on the Y and Z axes, respectively. Additional features include a UDG type Auto-indexing head, 30-pocket automatic tool changer and chip removal. All these accessories allow this customer to operate with greater speed and precision.
