Sweet machine and part!

I stumbled across this video on YouTube and thought it was pretty sweet!

I think it's landing gear?

I'll admit it. I watched the entire 12 minutes from start to finish.

I wondered why some videos linked to the post and some didn't! Thanks!

WFL's are the mutts nuts for large work.

Daniel, roughly what does a WFL like that cost? (Decked out with everything like that video)

I love the spear's they use for boring bars

About 10 years a go, they were over £1.5mill in the UK.

Our M150 costed 6.5M (USD) - But it makes cofee and beer.

 

The M65, the smaller one (3000mm travel Z) costed 2.5M (USD) - Well equipped too.

 

Below the axis configuration of our big boy, the M150x6500mm. It has all options in the video plus a few ones that are exclusive to O&G field (Cogsdill units for example)

That's kinda the price range I would expect. They must have some very well paid service engineers to install and dial in those machines. There's some SERIOUS complexity behind that sheet metal with all those tool, boring bar, and facing head changers.

 

 

BTW, I just found myself hovering my mouse over the icons on your screen capture waiting for the descriptions to pop up.

WFL post sales is second to none. It is like that saying "You get what you paid for"

These guys take customer satisfaction personally and put a lot of pride in the design and post-sales.

 

For complete machining we don't think twice: it is WFL for us.

Amazing Machine.

I did some training for a customer we had in Maine, amazing, amazing machine

At EMO I was told they can do a M200 with 12 meters Z travel

 

Alfa-Laval machineshop close to my home has 3 M150 with the 2.5 meters big bar slide option. Price tag around 3mil €
