The Sygma™ Alpha-I 30-80 machines large flanges from Ø 550 to 2,139 mm (22 to 84 inch). It clamps internally in bores from Ø 736 mm. With the ION-4 gearbox, backlash-free drive and NO-ROW™ clamping feet it stands firm, even during heavy cutting.
Like all machines in the Alpha series, the Alpha-I 30-80 is available with different, interchangeable drives. Thanks to the modular design you can also quickly and easily convert an Alpha-I for orbital milling, with the Legacy milling unit.
Does the standard version not meet your requirements, or would you like to rent the machine for one job? Contact us; we will be happy to discuss the possibilities.
