A flashback from earlier this year when David Modig, President Modig Machine Tool, attended the virtual event: Inspiration through Innovation ITI 2020.
MODIG RigiMill Moving Table
Achieve significant cycle time reduction when machining a typical single aisle wing rib with a MODIG RigiMill Moving Table (MT). Using vacuum plate work holding and a combination of Seco custom solid carbide and standard cutting tools, the high-quality rib is fully machined in one operation from solid aircraft grade aluminum billet. Typical cycle time reductions of 50% can be achieved: From 1 hour down to 30 minutes! Collaborative partner technologies: Modig Machine Tool RigiMill MT, Siemens NX, Renishaw probing, ICam verification/optimization and Seco Tools.
ACHIEVE 1,000 CUBIC INCHES OF CHIP REMOVAL PER MINUTE IN ALUMINUM
MODIG RigiMill setting new standards in High Performance machining. For machining with 3-, 4- or 5 axes. Parts are finished with extreme high chip removal rates and close geometric tolerances. MODIG machines run within any sector of industry, any type of application and part material to the fullest satisfaction of our customers.
Up to 1,000 cubic inches (16.4 liters) of chip removal per minute in aluminum!
The RigiMill has various spindle configurations to achieve chip removal rates up to 55 cubic inches/min (0.9 liter/min) in titanium and 1,000 cubic inches/min (16.4 liters/min) in aluminum, this machine makes it possible to use the same machine for high-speed roughing and finishing.
Up to 55 cubic inches (0.9 liter) of chip removal per minute in titanium!
MODIG RigiMill

CASE STUDIES
We provide a wide range of advantages. Of these, the most significant is our time saving technology. With a MODIG you will reduce your cycle time by 30-70%, a key component for success. Contact us to learn more of the MODIG Way of machining!
SUCCESS STORY
Asco Industries was looking for a precise finishing machine for titanium airplane parts. The key characteristics were a robust and precise machine to ensure a good and stable quality output. From that viewpoint, MODIG provided a solution with the moving table gantry machine type.
