FICEP introduces the Gemini, an advanced CNC machine for machining hard metals. The Gemini combines drilling, machining, marking and cutting functions on a moving gantry. It is fitted with powerful spindles and an advanced sub-axis and clamping system, allowing it to easily machine very hard steel grades. The sub-axis system enables helical milling, drilling and machining over a large area in a single setup. This innovation allows tapping holes directly in hard metals, saving on tooling costs. The Gemini provides a more productive and accurate solution than separate drilling and cutting machines. It reduces costs through higher machine utilization and avoiding issues like improper part fit-up from multi-machine processes.
