The TOP machine for manual and CNC operations, the PICOMAX® 56 TOP
Modernizing conventional machining
The TOP machine for manual and CNC operation with the innovative FEHLMANN operating concept: handy, fast and economical.
The precision milling and drilling machine PICOMAX 56 TOP (Touch Or Program™) is equipped with an entirely new operating concept, combining both CNC controlled 3-axis machining, as well as manual operation, using a drilling lever and handwheels.
Specifically designed to execute milling, drilling and threading tasks on single parts in a quick, reliable and efficient way without any time-consuming programming. After a very short initial training period, operators are able to efficiently operate the machine, even without previous programming knowledge.
Even the basic model of this FEHLMANN milling machine "Made in Switzerland" offers the features of a modern, highly productive milling machine, such as: fully digital Heidenhain CNC control TNC 620, a cooled and high-torque motor spindle made by Fehlmann for universal milling up to 12'000 rpm, Z/S interpolated thread cutting, 3D milling, boring, etc...
Furthermore, the milling machine PICOMAX 56 TOP is upgradeable with various functional machine options, such as a FEHLMANN dividing unit for 4-axis operation, an automatic tool changer with 20 or 30 pockets, etc.
