The test bar milling machine enables bar-shaped plastic samples to be produced for tension, pressure, bending and flexural impact tests in accordance with a wide range of standards. The CNC milling machine is a table-top unit with electrically locking protective doors. Pre-configured machining programs for all common bar shapes and visualisation via Windows makes it very easy to operate the milling machine. Up to five test bars can be produced in one milling process. The allround enclosure ensures safety at the workstation during the milling process. A swarf extraction system and the optional ionisation unit ensure the workstation remains clean.
