Key Facts<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The MC\u00b5 machining centers from BURKHARDT+WEBER achieve top-level precision and the tightest geometric tolerances in the production and machining of large, complex components.<\/li>\n
  2. The machine base of the MC\u00b5 series is cast using EPUMENT\u00ae<\/sup> mineral casting made by RAMPF Machine Systems.<\/li>\n
  3. The epoxy resin-bonded material provides an extremely stable structure with up to ten times the damping capacity of gray cast iron.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Mr. Michael Wiedmaier, Head of Competence Center Sales at BURKHARDT+WEBER<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cAt our company, customer input is the foundation of everything we build. Our machines are not off-the-shelf products, but custom-engineered solutions that reflect each client\u2019s specific needs, implemented with precision and deep technical expertise. This ensures that our customers always receive the optimal machine for their application, delivering the highest quality and maximum performance.\u201d<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The foundation for the long-term precision of the MC\u00b5 lies in its inherent structural stability. This includes high guide bars and FEM-optimized structures cast with EPUMENT\u00ae<\/sup> mineral casting. The high- performance material from RAMPF Machine Systems ensures maximum stability in ultra-precise machines: Comparative measurements show that mineral casting offers up to ten times the material damping of gray cast iron and welded constructions.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The MC\u00b5\u2019s market-leading precision is also supported by its outstanding thermal behavior and active temperature control. The high thermal inertia of mineral casting and the ability to integrate cooling channels directly into the casting significantly enhance thermal performance. This enables cost-effective and highly efficient bed temperature control.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Mr. Kacper Lasetzki, Sales Manager at RAMPF Machine Systems<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cWith EPUMENT\u00ae<\/sup> mineral casting, we help achieve the outstanding precision of the MC\u00b5 series \u2013 while also lowering its carbon footprint. Thanks to cold casting, high casting accuracy, and ultra-precise replication technology, our process generates up to 80 % fewer CO\u2082 emissions compared to conventional materials. Furthermore, EPUMENT\u00ae<\/sup> consists of over 90 % natural minerals and stones and can be disposed of as standard construction waste. It can be shredded and reused as filler material in new machine base production \u2013 making mineral casting fully recyclable.\u201d<\/p>\n
