Belotti, the Italian manufacturer specialising in composite machining

TLDR: Belotti S.p.A. (Italy) designs 3 and 5-axis CNC machining centres for milling and trimming composite materials, plastics, resins and light alloys, with a complete range (MDL, FLA, SKY, VEGA, NOVA, NAVY, GEMINI, FLU, TRIM) for the automotive, aerospace, marine and rail industries.

Belotti S.p.A. designs CNC machining centres dedicated to precise milling and trimming operations on components made of composite materials, plastic, resin and light alloys, with a very wide range of highly customisable series and models. The MDL series, a 5-axis milling centre with a moving gantry, delivers high rigidity in high-speed milling, with a Superior version using twin motors to eliminate backlash entirely, aimed at aerospace. The FLA series combines the productivity of a high-speed milling machine with the potential of a moving-bridge centre for series trimming of composites and thermoplastics. The SKY series, with a thermally stabilised monobloc structure, targets automotive and aerospace in particular, while the VEGA series is dedicated to producing large resin models and prototypes.

A range of torque-motor heads and high-speed spindles for composite machining

TLDR: Belotti machining centres use 5-axis heads with torque motors (patented Torque technology), with spindles reaching 24,000 rpm, combined with compact fork heads fitted with hydraulic clamping brakes on the rotary axes for a superior surface finish.

The 5-axis heads of Belotti centres use torque motors (Torque technology, designed and patented by the manufacturer), Heidenhain optical scales on the linear axes, and very high rigidity structures to improve accuracy and finish quality. The patented fork head, compact and rigid, is fitted notably on the SKY series, with torque motors and hydraulic clamping brakes on the A and C rotary axes, guaranteeing a superior finish when machining linear axes interpolated with rotary axes — on some configurations the centre of rotation of the A-axis spindle is offset to reach a 45° undercut, allowing the part to be machined from below. On standard configurations, the milling centre spindle can reach 24,000 rpm. On the VEGA series, vision cameras built into the spindle housing allow real-time process verification and monitoring.

Frequently asked questions

Do you repair the torque-motor heads (Torque technology) of Belotti centres?

Yes, we work on these heads, taking their backlash elimination system into account.

Do you work on the SKY series fork heads with hydraulic clamping brakes?

Yes, we diagnose and repair these heads, whatever the undercut configuration.

What is the average lead time for a full overhaul?

Allow around 20 working days in the workshop, depending on the condition of the spindle and the availability of parts (bearings, seals, specific components).

Do you work on spindles fitted with built-in vision cameras, VEGA series?

Yes, we diagnose and repair these spindles, preserving their monitoring system.

Do you offer a preventive maintenance contract for a fleet of Belotti machines?

Yes, we set up preventive maintenance programmes tailored to your production rate.
