Winner in all (performance) classes

The motor spindle is one of the essential assemblies of a tooling machine, a milling center or a robot-based end-of-arm solution, achieving maximum productivity and precision, enabling optimum performance and workpiece quality. The mechanically integrated motor solutions are extremely compact, highly productive and achieve maximum rigidity, the prerequisite for maximum speeds and precise concentricity.

The Zimmer Group offers you the perfect portfolio for this. Regardless of whether you are looking for a motor spindle for use in milling machines or machining centers, you will find economical standard motor spindles, air-cooled spindles in the low and medium power range, as well as fluid-cooled high-performance spindles and, of course, the right accessories from inverters to cooling units, C-axes and connection sets in our various spindle kits.    

  • Air- and water-cooled high-frequency spindles in various power ranges
  • Support on topics such as power dimensioning, energy supply, cooling or integration into the control system or service
  • Repair and on-site service by expert personnel
  • Spindle IO-Link communication module enables condition monitoring or predictive maintenance
  • Extremely high reliability, high power density and broad compatibility

Air-cooled

Air supply and sufficient circulation volume are ideal conditions for spindles with high power density.
 

Water-cooled

Water cooling and dimensioned cooling units ensure highly productive spindles thanks to optimum temperature control.

Robot exchange units

The WWS series enables fully automatic motor spindle change.
