Specific characteristics
Themachine body of the KERN Micro is specially designed to take full
advantage of the characteristics offered by the high tech material polymer concrete. The C-frame structure of the machine body is filled with polymer concrete for better absorption of vibrations (patented). Moreover, the machine stands on a stable polymer concrete machine base providing maximum rigidity and extraordinary vibration absorption – basic requirement for maximum precision on the workpiece. The 1.7 tons weight carrying and also exceptional space saving design permits its installation even under extremely narrow room conditions.
TheKERN Micro ( > Technical Data ) is specially designed for single
part and small series production. It has been proven worldwide in being particularly suitable for applications requiring the following features:
Highest precision on the workpiece
   (positioning scatter PS ±1.0 µm according to VDI/DGQ 3441)
Excellent surface quality Ra < 0.2 µm
Milling of steel, non ferrous metals, plastics, ceramics
Single or multi-part clamping
3 and 5 axes machining

The KERN Micro high precision machining centre can be fitted with a wide
range of accessories and options, e.g.:
Powerful vector-controlled spindle (other spindle types available
   up to 160,000 rpm)
