Two servo drives
All processing units are driven by servo motors; the stroke rate is steplessly variable from 5 to 700 1/min. Braking angles are shorter: after a malfunction the machine stops quickly, which reduces the risk of tool damage.

Why BZ2-S8?
Circulating lubrication
Presses and slide units are connected to a closed, encapsulated circulating lubrication and cooling system; the oil is collected and returned to the tank, and oil consumption drops markedly.
140 mm more working space
The open machine concept and a working space enlarged by 140 mm ease tool changeover and maintenance; further processing modules can be integrated. Operation via the VariControl VC 1 control.

Frequently asked questions
Can existing BZ 2 tools be used on the BZ2-S8?
According to the manufacturer, existing BZ 2 tools can be reused on the BZ2-S8 with minor modifications.
How does lubrication work on the BZ2-S8?
Circulating lubrication and cooling form a closed, encapsulated system: the connected units are lubricated in a circuit and the oil is collected and returned to the tank. It replaces the earlier total-loss central lubrication of the slide units and presses, and oil consumption drops markedly.
Which additional processes can be integrated into the BZ2-S8?
The open machine concept allows further manufacturing processes such as thread cutting, welding and screw insertion to be integrated. The two identical processing faces provide 32 drive positions in total.
