UNIAXLE
An innovation in CNC machining of truck rear axles
Uniaxle
- Rear axle machining in a single setup
- to the greatest precision – in the shortest possible time
Our UNIAXLE is a revolutionary new CNC machine for machining welded and cast truck rear axles!
You can machine complete truck rear axles in just one set up on ONE single machine. It’s faster, more accurate and saves you money. You won’t need so many different machines, thus saving space on the shop floor. The UNIAXLE CNC machine is universal and can machine a wide variety of rear axles.

Benefits
Unique technology – turning head
The UNIAXLE CNC machine is unique: with a cutting tool rotating around the rear axle. The turning head we use is an innovation from our own R&D department. With this innovation we found the ideal balance between accuracy, speed and flexibility.
Simultaneous milling and turning
In addition to the unique head, this CNC machine also has a milling spindle. All turning and milling operations on the rear axle are carried out at the same time. Another advantage is the rotation unit which turns the rear axle through 90 degrees so the milling spindle can also machine the rear axle banjo.
Single clamping
A production line with multiple machines requires many different operations. The frequent lifting, moving and setup operations influence the lead time as well as the accuracy of the machining. Single clamping means greater process reliability and a significant reduction in changeover times!
