New FZU 5-Axis Gantry Mill —Zimmermann Zimmermann is introducing the FZU 5-axis compact gantry milling machine. Plastics, casting resins such as Ureol and aluminum are particularly suitable for machining. “This develop- ment will enable us to close the gap in the lower weight class,” states Frieder Gänzle, general manager and partner at Zimmermann in Germany. The Zimmermann engineers have designed the FZU gantry machine to be thermo-symmetrical. This means that the milling spindle, guides and other accuracy-determining components are arranged so that their heating is either compensated or they can expand in uncritical directions. “ Also new is the new VH10 mill- ing head, which achieves an extremely high power density. “This new de- velopment has enabled us to reassess our portfolio,” reports Gänzle.
