CECAMASA committed to milling machines "made in Spain"

second-hand milling machines

As many of you may already know, milling machines feature prominently in our wide selection of used machinery. Currently all of our second-hand milling machines available for sale are taken over by Spanish brands. In CECAMASA are committed to manufacturers of milling machines "made in Spain” as exponents of high quality machinery, great performance and high precision. Next, we are going to talk about these manufacturers who, with their good work, have crossed borders and have made a name for themselves internationally.

ZAYER milling machines

Zayer, based in Vitoria-Gasteiz (Basque Country), it defines itself as a machine tool company with an “entrepreneurial spirit and innovative capacity”. Not surprisingly, Zayer has more than 60 years of experience designing and manufacturing milling machines (bed type milling machines, bridge milling machines, gantry milling machines, moving column milling machines) and machining centers.

CECAMASA closes the sale of a plate bending machine in South America

casanovas plate bender

The team of CECAMASA comes back to work after summer holidays. In CECAMASA we finished the month of July by closing the sale of a SERTOM-CASANOVAS 4-roll hydraulic bending machine with a client from South America. In fact, during these weeks of August the plate bender has traveled overseas in container to its destination. It is a large used plate bender with a maximum bending length of 3050 mm and a bending capacity of 50 mm. A machine equipped with control for the benders, hydraulic L-rafter and lateral supports.

The logistics process which involves the shipping of this machine or any other machine of a certain size is not easy. And if this machine is shipped abroad there are additional risks as the journey is longer. That is why it is vital to know how to carry out the loading, in that way, during the manipulation of the machine, it will not not suffer any damage and to guarantee that it willl arrive safe and sound at destination.

Our team of technicians has a vast experience in this field and they care along the whole process by taking all the necessary precautions. For this purpose they carry out a study of the machine to be immobilized. Many aspects have to be taken into account: from the dimensions and weight of the load, the type of transport tha is going to be used, mooring angles, the friction factors and so on. Nothing can be left to chance. The machine must be supported using the means or elements that are necessary to prevent and avoid blows, displacements, friction, etc. In the specific case of the above-mentioned bending machine, the biggest challenge its load presented was due to the weight of 52 tons of the body of the machine.It was necessary to use a special Mafi team for its transport.

Find below a few photos of the loading process of the above-mentioned bending machine. In that way, you will see for yourselves, the great job made by our mechanics:

CECAMASA: vast experience in exporting machines

Although in CECAMASA we have a large portfolio of domestic clients, we do not neglect the international sphere either. We have sold machining centers to clients in Argentina, moving column milling machines to Mexico, cnc lathes with inclined bed to Turkey, and thus a long list of machines and countries. Experience that supports us and that speaks for itself. Despite the difficult times we are going through, we are delighted to see that companies around the world are struggling to get ahead. And it is that adversity manages to bring out our most creative side. There is a Galician saying that says that need teaches more than university and perhaps popular wisdom is right again. So we are especially proud of this latest sale of a bending machine to South America in such current difficult times.

CECAMASA: balance of the first semester of 2020

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic especially suffered during this second trimester of this turbulent 2020 have meant without any kind of doubt a setback in the economic activity of the companies. Unfortunately CECAMASA has not been an exception. However, after implementing the due security protocols stablised by regulations, our team of mechanics has not been interrupted its daily work in the workshop. It was necessary to meet the deadlines of the orders comitted before the lockdown. And now we are in the called "new normality", the statistics of the sector are not very optimistic. In fact, the president of the AFMEC (the Spanish Association of Contract Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering), Mr Alberto Perez outlines for an interview made by Metal Industry that according to his estimates: "commercial activity in the national market is 65% of normal and in the international market is 40%." In CECAMASA we trust that the sector, despite the current situation, will be able to reverse the damage suffered and return to a more optimistic scenario.

In this sense, CECAMASA has proposed to help the business fabric and the self-employed by making available capital equipment renting financing. In this way, we intend to contribute our grain of sand so that business projects are not paralyzed for a purely economic issue. We recommend that you read our July post "Machinery renting, an attractive alternative to buying” to learn more about this topic.

More information

We remind you that in CECAMASA we have a large inventory of second-hand machinery. The milling machine (either in its mode of bed type milling machine , bridge milling machine, traveling column milling machine), the vertical machining centre and the cnc lathe are the star machines in our inventory. Not in vain we are specialists in these families of machines, although we have shears, folding machines, presses, saws, drills, grinding machines and a long list of used machines with excellent performance. If you want more information, do not hesitate to contact us. Write us an email at cecamasa@cecamasa.com or call us at +34 935 730 225 and our team will answer all your questions.

Machinery renting, an attractive alternative to buying

CECAMASA renting financing

What is renting?

The purchase of a machine can often involve a significant financial outlay that detracts liquidity and resources from the company or freelance who carries out the operation. That makes one think about it very well before taking the step of materializing an investment in capital goods. Making an investment of a certain amount can make it impossible to allocate resources to other important aspects of the business. But today, buying is not the only way to acquire and enjoy the benefits provided by machinery. This is when concepts like "renting” are emerging as attractive alternatives to traditional purchasing of capital goods.

The machinery renting makes it easier for companies and freelancers to use capital equipment without having to make a large investment. The economipedia defines renting as "a rental agreement for a movable asset in which one of the parties (the lessor) agrees to transfer said movable asset in exchange for the other party (the lessee) paying a periodic fee". The capital goods renting covers a wide spectrum of machines: from industrial machinery such as milling machines, machining centers or lathes to electrical machinery, robotics, etc.

Advantages of Renting

Renting has many advantatges. Firstly, it is not necessary to make a big outlay at the beginning of the operation. In fact, the payment is divided into convenient monthly, biannual or annual installments according to the lessee's financial needs. In the case of renting, the machine is not included on the balance sheet either on the CIRBE (Bank of Spain Credit Reporting Agency), that is why it does not increase the debt ratios of the company. Moreover, as the payment plan is stated for an agreed period of time, there is an absolute control on how much is going to be paid in every moment. In that sense, we would like to point out the fact that variable costs such as the insurance, maintenance,etc are non-existent. Another incentive to chose the renting option is that the installsments are regarded as an expense, therefore, they are tax-deductible.

CECAMASA offers you renting financing

In CECAMASA we want to make things easy for you. Aware of the difficult times we are going through, we do not want you to give up your projects for a purely monetary issue. So if your project requires acquiring or renovating a machine, we offer you a wide selection of machinery and we offer you clear and agile financial solutions. As you may already know, our extensive machinery park includes milling machines (bed type milling machines, traveling column milling machines, bridge type milling machines), cnc lathes, machining centers and many other machines in the metallurgical sector (shears, pressbrakes, grinders, presses, saws, etc). In our inventory there is no shortage of brands such as Zayer, Soraluce, Nicolas Correa, Geminis, Doosan, Daewoo, Lagun, Juaristi and a long etcetera of other prestigious brands, both national and international.

CECAMASA completes the assembly of two bridge milling machines at its facilities

zayer kpcu 6000 ar dt milling machine

Despite the adverse circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, CECAMASA has not ceased its activity. Adhering to strict security protocols to avoid contagions, our operators have continued to work on the checking, overhauling and commissioning of our machines. As a result of all this effort, our team of highly qualified technicians has assembled two bridge milling machines at our facilities located in the municipality of Parets del Vallès (Barcelona) for a showroom. It is a NICOLAS CORREA FP-30/40 bridge milling machine and one ZAYER KPCU 6000 AR DT bridge milling machine a second hand machine of which we will give you more details, after a brief explanation of what a bridge milling machine is and what it is for.

What is a bridge milling machine?

As many of you already know, a bridge milling machine is a machine-tool of chip removal which is used in the machining of big size pieces. The bridge milling machine has a work table located under the two columns of a bridge where the pieces move along. In that way, the tool can move either vertically or crosswise. There are two types of bridge milling machines: the ones which present a mobile bridge and the ones which have a fixed bridge. In the mobile bridge the table does not move, being the tool the one which makes the movement. However, in the milling machines of fixed bridge the movement is made by the table. In both cases we are talking of robust and versatile marchines.

NICOLAS CORREA FP-30/40 bridge milling machine

The NICOLAS CORREA bridge milling machine that we currently have on display at our showroom belongs to the FP series, undoubtedly one of the most demanded and successful models of the manufacturer of NICOLAS CORREA milling machines. This is the FP-30/40 model, which can work with two heads: the direct output head that reaches 6,000 rpm and a manual HURON 360º head of 3,000 revolutions.

Note that this machine has an extra measurement in the distance between columns, 2,000 mm, with the Y axis travel of 2,300 mm. Likewise, this used bridge milling machine is equipped with numerical control HEIDENHAIN 426.

The machine comes from a tool shop and is in exceptional condition, both mechanically and electronically speaking. It is an ideal milling machine for both the tooling sector and machining in general, for both heavy and large parts. It is a milling machine that perfectly combines robustness with dynamism. We invite you to come over to our facilities and see it under power and see for yourself all its benefits.

ZAYER KPCU 6000 AR DT bridge milling machine

This second-hand milling machine form the ZAYER brand presents high performance, that is why this machine contains in its name the letters "AR" which stand for "Alto Rendimiento" (the Spanish way to say "high performance). And what does it mean? That means it has more motor power, more engine torque and a bigger diameter of the vertical spindle.

But the wonders of this second hand milling machine are more. This ZAYER presents two remarkable aspects: first, it has a head of 0.001 accuracy which reaches 6,000 rpm, and allows to turn the two bodies simultaneously while the spindle is turning (3+2). The second thing to highlight is the fact that the machine is equipped with a double system table: it has two working areas of 3,000x2,000 mm that can work either indepently or combined, that is, a total working surface of 6,000x2,000 mm. This double table system, allows the user a great flexibility and a remarkably agility. Considering the two tables as two independent working areas, the operator can perform the machining on one piece and prepare another one for its finishing in another table. That means savings in time and, as a consequence, saving costs for the company. Just to put it in another words, this milling machine can perform the same tasks as a palletized machine.

In the list of extras of this ZAYER KPCU 6000 AR DT bridge milling machine, also mention that both the X and Y axes are rack and pinion, the machine has internal cooling, it has a 100-tool magazine, 2 chip extractors and it is equipped with a control HEIDENHAIN iTNC-530.

The distance between columns of this bridge milling machine is 2,800 mm, which makes it a very versatile machine for the heavy die sector, but it is also highly recommended for structures and machining in general.

Taking into account that plus the fact that the Z-axis travel is 625 mm, we are in front a machine that does not present the standard 500 mm in vertical. Its 8,000 rpm and its internal coolant supply, make this machine a very versatile and useful machine, especially for the mold and die sector of small size. Moreover, this second-hand machining center has a RANDOM tool changer of 24 units and it is equipped with a numerical control FANUC 21 iM digital.

OVERHAUL CARRIED OUT

Sticking to our usual plan of tasks, the DAEWOO MYNX 540 machining center has been previously checked thoroughly by our team of experts before proceeding with its sale. When in CECAMASA we buy a used machining center, our team of mechanics dismantles and checks it carefully in order to detect if a spare part needs to be repaired or replaced. Further to that diagnose, the needed actions are carried out and, of course, the geometry of the machine is tested to determine the degree of accuracy. All these steps are followed with the pursuit of ensuring that the second-hand machining center has the best possible quality, the closest to a new machining center. In this specific case, at mechanical level in this DAEWOO MYNX 540 machining center the bearings have been changed in all the axes,the spindles have been prestressed, the screw balls have been replaced and the turcite of the bed ways has been adjusted. All of it has been done in order to achieve correct accuracy degrees. Furthermore, the machine has been cleaned and painted and it looks as you can see in the below picture.
