For Your Shop

Purpose-built for aluminum and PVC. High-RPM electro-spindles cut clean without bogging down on long, thin profiles, and chip evacuation is engineered into every machine.

What This Solves

Built for shop-floor problems

The old way

With Mecal

I'm running aluminum extrusion on a general-purpose VMC and the chips bog down the spindle.

✓

Mecal machines have purpose-built chip evacuation and high-RPM electro-spindles (up to 24,000 RPM) sized specifically for aluminum cutting. No more chip-jam shutdowns.

Cycle uptime jumps 20-30% on aluminum profile work

Long aluminum profiles flex during machining. Tolerance suffers on the far end.

✓

Mecal's self-motorized clamps (MMI on Falcon, automatic on Kosmos) reposition independently and simultaneously to support the profile through the cut. Tolerance holds end-to-end.

Hold ±0.1 mm tolerance across 4-meter profiles

I do window-and-door extrusion work and need 5-axis for complex angles.

✓

GEOS and TAURUS 5-axis machining centers handle compound-angle work in one setup, no manual fixturing, no operator math.

Eliminate 2-3 fixturing steps per part on complex extrusion

Why Mecal

  • Purpose-built for aluminum, PVC, and light alloys, not adapted
  • High-RPM electro-spindles up to 24,000 RPM
  • Automatic clamp positioning supports long profiles end-to-end
  • Six product lines from compact KOSMOS to flagship 5-axis TAURUS
  • Italian engineering with US distribution and service
