PM Series Portal Machining Center for Industrial Applications
The powerful PM Series gantry machining center offers exceptional performance to the Finnish machine shop industry, as its robust, fully symmetrical frame structure and pre-stressed crossbeam ensure exceptional geometric stability. This state-of-the-art gantry machining center handles large workpieces with ease, and its advanced dual-rail design effectively minimizes harmful vibration, significantly improving surface finish and dimensional accuracy under all conditions. The machine’s robust vertical column structure maximizes shock absorption under heavy loads.
High load-bearing capacity for heavy-duty machining
The particularly robust PM-H series utilizes high-rigidity slideways that effectively dampen vibrations and enable exceptionally high load-carrying capacity during demanding heavy-duty machining. Box-type guides ensure optimal process stability when machining medium-sized and large parts, making them the ideal solution for even the most challenging part-manufacturing needs.
Precise power transmission and long strokes
The machine’s long-stroke ball screws are protected by additional mechanical support systems, and their precisely calibrated preload completely eliminates play, ensuring smooth and precise motion. This mechanical design effectively prevents deflection of the long axes and guarantees excellent positioning accuracy even during long-term production.
Versatile features and milling power
Optional A/C swivel heads and adjustable universal heads expand the machine tool’s capabilities, significantly improving machining efficiency for complex shapes and tasks involving varying angles. When these features are combined with effective thermal management and integrated oil circulation cooling, maximum productivity and quality are achieved in components for the aerospace and automotive industries.

Controls
The PM series is equipped with the popular Fanuc control system. The control package includes the AICC function, which enables “high-speed” milling.
Milling Heads
For advanced machining, we offer a variety of milling heads as optional accessories to meet a wide range of needs. Available options include swivel A/C milling heads, ±45° adjustable universal milling heads (universal heads), which are suitable for angled and complex shapes, as well as fixed-angle milling heads, such as 30° and 60°, for specific angle machining. Customers can select heads according to project requirements, which expands the machine tool’s capabilities and improves machining efficiency and accuracy
Powertrain
Long-stroke ball screws, which are essential in high-precision machines, are subject to the risks of compression and deflection. Additional support systems are installed to bear the loads, which maintains the precision of the power transmission. Ball screws are preloaded to compress the components and eliminate play, ensuring smoother operation.
Guides
The PM series uses extremely rigid box guideways and linear guides, depending on the machine’s design, which offer good vibration damping and wear resistance as required.
