FZU32
FZU32
Efficiency and you
Thermosymmetrical. Ergonomic. Universal.
The FZU32 is a remarkably compact 5-axis gantry milling machine for machining aluminum, fiber composite materials, plastics, ureol and steel. The particularly rigid and newly developed center lead portal enables us to meet the ever growing requirements in the model and mold making industry. The thermo-symmetrical construction makes the FZU32 less susceptible to adverse ambient conditions.
The modular design of the mono-block hook machine offers different lengths and height versions, as well as extensive equipment options, such as process cooling with cooling lubricants and/or minimum quantity lubrication. The great flexibility in material handling, the highest surface quality and accuracy result in optimum price/performance density.

Frequently Asked Questions FZU32 Portal Milling Machine
What materials can be processed with the FZU32?
The FZU32 is designed to process a variety of materials, including:
- Aluminum
- Fiber-reinforced composites (e.g., CFRP)
- Plastics
- Ureol
- Stainless steel
Thanks to this wide range of materials, the machine is suitable for a wide variety of applications in model making as well as in tool and mold making.
What working ranges does the FZU32 gantry milling machine offer?
The machine can be configured in various sizes and covers the following working ranges:
- X-axis: 2,000 – 6,000 mm
- Y-axis: 3,000 – 3,500 mm
- Z-axis: 1,250 – 1,500 mm
This allows for the efficient machining of both medium-sized and larger components.
Which milling heads can be used on the FZU32?
Various 2-axis milling heads are available for the machine and can be selected depending on the application:
- VH10 – slim design for hard-to-reach areas
- VH20 – dynamic milling head for high machining speeds
- VH30 – particularly stable and temperature-resistant
Selecting the appropriate milling head allows the machine to be adapted to different machining strategies.
What are the dynamic characteristics of the FZU32’s axes?
The machine’s linear axes achieve feed rates of up to 60 m/min and accelerations of up to 3 m/s². These dynamic characteristics enable fast positioning movements and reduce machining times—a decisive advantage in the series production of complex components.
