Specific machine characteristics:

The digital direct feed drives fitted to the KERN Evo ultra precision machining centre provide fast acceleration and feed rates (>Technical Data). These forces are absorbed by the polymer concrete monobloc machine frame.

The KERN Evo is specially designed for applications requiring the following features:
Highest precision on the workpiece (deviation of
   position Pa ±0.5 µm according to VDI/DGQ 3441)
Excellent surface quality Ra < 0.1 µm
Milling of critically machinable materials and hardened steel
High productivity
High acceleration rates
High feed rates
Automatic workpiece loading for batch production (available
   for 3 and 5 axes machining)

The KERN Evo ultra precision machining centre can be fitted with a wide range
of accessories and options, e.g.:

Powerful vector-controlled spindle (other spindle types
   available)
Digital CNC precision dividing head (4th/5th axis)
Automatic tool changer (ATC) with 32, 63 or 95 positions
Automatic workpiece changer, integrated with 24 positions
   (picture), alternatively with 36, 60 and more positions
   (preparation for retrofitting at a later stage possible)
Automatic measuring of the workpiece by a touch probe
   with data transfer by infrared beam (only for vector-
   controlled or oriented spindles)
Automatic tool measuring with either a linear measuring
   system or a laser measuring system for tool length and radius
