What is the BZT PFU series?

Sturdy steel construction, Bosch Rexroth guides and ball screws in all axes – for precise CNC machining of panels, profiles and 3D objects. The PFU series was designed and precisely manufactured for the highest possible standard of stability and accuracy. The steel construction of the gantry milling machine and the roller bearing guides from Bosch Rexroth form an extremely stable basis for numerous fields of application in light aluminium, plastic and wood machining. Whether milling panel material and profiles, machining plastics and woods or engraving text and images on aluminium or acrylic glass: the transmission of motor vibrations to the ball screws is effectively prevented, and ball screws in all axes ensure excellent milling results. Optional accessories such as a swivel head, extraction units, vacuum table, tool changer or panel stop make the PFU the universal solution for high-quality CNC milling.
