The ATHENA bridge cutting machine is proposed in the simplified version of the CNC MATRIX that allows, directly from the machine board, the programming of repetitive cuts of various sizes matched to the table rotation and, through the optional CAD-CAM software, it allows the realization of profiles (conic) and oriented cuts even curvilinear (pié goose, circles, ellipses etc.)

In the ATHENA-M fixed head version, there is the possibility to install the spindle motor of higher power, up to 45 Kw with belt transmission.

Moreover, the machine has a wide range of OPTIONAL such as the tilting head, various versions of automatic fixed and tilting workbenches, overbenches for material loading, pistons for blocking the slabs, personal computer with CAD-CAM software, zinc steel basements and many other useful accessories.

The machine size can be customized according to the customer’s needs.

The single load bearing beam is made of very thick steel on which there are two sturdy hardened steel sliding tracks, so that the machine can work precisely for a much longer time.

The bridge guides shoes are covered with hardened steel strips.

The varnishing is made in a particular way: Before the workings, sandblasting with an immediate zinc based treatment. After the workings, washing and double varnishing.

Control panel with easy-to-learn symbols positioned ergonomically in front of the slide.

The saw-blade holder slides on recirculating ball shoes, providing a great stability and precision to the tool.

The up and down movement of the disc is possible through four recirculating ball shoes that slide on hardened steel sliding tracks and through a recirculating ball screw. That allows to obtain a high precision in the disc positioning and to absorb the vibrations.

The system is completely covered by bellows and carters in order to avoid that dust and water splashing compromise the duration in time of the machine.

The workbench can be manual or automatic rotating.

Automatic machine with digital reading programmer with preselection and automatic repetition of 9 different sizes that can be repeated each one up to 99 times.
