Northwood Vertical Bridge Mill is used in the Stone, Glass, and metal working applications that require flood coolant. The 20HP Fanuc driven spindle options include ISO40 taper as well as ISO50 taper allowing for larger tooling. Thru-the-Spindle tool coolant as well as external halo coolant is utilized to cool the tool tool. Static automatic tool changer racks as well as dynamic travel along automatic tool changers are available. This machine is shown above with 30″ (762mm) Z-Ram, but Northwood can accommodate smaller or larger Z-Axis as required for the application.
