Summary

The Starrag LX 151 is a 5-axis machining center engineered for high-precision pre- and postprocessing of turbine blades in a single clamping position. It is purpose-built for efficient, continuous machining of complex blade geometries, combining extensive axis kinematics with process-integrated measurement and monitoring. Notable technical attributes include comprehensive integrated process monitoring, through-spindle and external cooling options, and specialized clamping systems for demanding blade applications.

Key Capabilities

• Simultaneous 5-axis machining for complete blade processing
• Machining in a single clamping to minimize error stack-up
• Integrated tool and workpiece measurement functions
• Process monitoring with crash detection and spindle/tool condition evaluation
• Multiple cooling system options, including through-spindle and external CO2
• Customizable clamping fixtures for varied blade geometries
• Automation compatibility from basic storage up to complex flexible manufacturing systems
