Description
5-axis CNC milling machine with moving table
The CR is a 5-axis CNC milling machine with a moving table, manufactured by BERMAQ for high-speed machining of wood, aluminium, polystyrene, resins, composites and other non-ferrous materials. Robust and precise, it is designed for the production of models and moulds.
Its modular design allows configurations with one or two tables and one or two simultaneous heads, and its kinematics are optimised for continuous 5-axis machining with ±0.025 mm accuracy. A machine ready for high-volume production in aeronautics, automotive, marine and rail.
Applications of the CR milling machine
5-axis models, moulds and parts for demanding industries
The combination of a 5-axis head, strokes of up to 4,000 mm and high feed rates makes the CR a benchmark tool for industries working with complex geometries and lightweight materials:
Moulds and models: master models, moulds and dies with double-curvature surfaces machined continuously.
Aeronautics and aerospace: trimming and milling of composite and aluminium parts and precision tooling.
Automotive: prototypes, limited-series parts and tooling with tight tolerances.
Marine and rail: hull and deck moulds, body panels and lightweight CFRP and GFRP components.
Construction, architecture and set design: decorative elements, scale models and large polystyrene and wood parts.
Machining technology of the CR milling machine
A and C axis head for continuous 5-axis work
The head combines a C axis of ±220° and an A axis of ±110°, both rotating at 135°/s. These kinematics let the tool be oriented at any angle to machine complex surfaces in continuous 5-axis mode with smooth transitions and a uniform finish.
Electrospindle up to 22 kW and 36,000 rpm
The milling motor delivers up to 22 kW, with a rated speed of 12,000 rpm and a maximum speed of 24,000 or 36,000 rpm depending on the version. Combined units are available for machining aluminium and polystyrene on the same machine, widening the range of materials without changing equipment.
Revolver tool magazine with 16 to 24 positions
The revolver-type automatic tool changer, with 16 or 24 positions and HSK taper, keeps every tool in the process at hand and minimises non-productive time between operations.
SIEMENS, HEIDENHAIN or FANUC CNC for 5-axis mould programming
The CR can be fitted with SIEMENS, HEIDENHAIN or FANUC numerical control, so each workshop can use the programming environment it already knows. The X and Y axes travel at 40 m/min and the Z axis at 20 m/min, with ±0.015 mm repeatability.
Manufacturing and quality control of the CR milling machine
Robust moving-table structure with a modular concept
The CR is built piece by piece at BERMAQ's facilities on a robust moving-table structure. Its modular concept allows one or two tables and one or two heads to be fitted, so the machine grows with production. Automatic lubrication ensures continuous, reliable operation.
CR structure validated by CAE before it is built
The engineering department designs each machine with parametric 3D CAD software and evaluates its structure using CAE and finite element analysis, identifying vibration, thermal effects and overloads in advance.
±0.025 mm accuracy verified with Ballbar and laser tracker
Before delivery, the geometry is checked with a Renishaw Ballbar interferometer and a FARO laser tracker, and axis positioning and repeatability are verified in accordance with ISO 230-2.
Tailor the CR to your production line
Strokes, tables and heads sized for each project
Working area: X length of 2,500 or 3,000 mm and Y width of 1,500, 2,000 or 4,000 mm.
Working height: 800 mm Z axis, extendable to 1,250 mm for larger parts and moulds.
CR-2 version: two tables and two heads with a 6,000 mm working length (3,000 x 3,000 mm) for continuous production.
Heads and workholding: combined units for aluminium and polystyrene, manual or automatic tool change and a 145 or 250 m³/h vacuum pump.

Materials compatible with the CR milling machine
High-speed machining of non-ferrous materials
The CR has been designed specifically for high-speed work on non-ferrous materials, maintaining accuracy even on large parts:
Wood and wood-based panels: models, moulds and technical parts with a fine finish.
Aluminium: tooling, panels and components machined in 5 axes.
Composites: carbon fibre, glass fibre and sandwich panels trimmed with precision.
Polystyrene and technical foams: large models and scale models for architecture and set design.
Resins, acrylics and engineering plastics: styling models, prototypes and precision parts.
The CR within its line: CR, CR-2 and MX
BERMAQ's CR line shares a single philosophy, high speed and robustness for models and moulds, but each model addresses a different production volume:
CR: the starting configuration, with strokes of up to 3,000 x 4,000 mm and an electrospindle of up to 22 kW.
CR-2: two tables and two simultaneous heads to double capacity and work without pauses.
MX: the most compact and accessible alternative inspired by the CR, with a manual A axis.
Why the CR performs in high-volume production
A 40 m/min feed rate, automatic tool change and the option of two simultaneous heads cut cycle times, while ±0.025 mm accuracy and ±0.015 mm repeatability ensure that the hundredth part matches the first. It is the right machine for mould makers, pattern makers, aerospace and automotive suppliers and engineering firms developing high-value components.
Built by BERMAQ in Spain, with in-house technical service
The CR is designed and manufactured entirely in Spain with EU parts. Because it builds every machine from scratch, BERMAQ can fully adapt it to each customer's needs. After-sales service includes preventive maintenance packages, a large stock of original spare parts, online or on-site training and a network of specialised technicians who respond quickly to any incident.
