The Wattsan A1 1325 is a medium-format CNC milling machine designed for cutting, engraving, and 3D milling. It is suitable for working with a wide range of materials, including wood, MDF, chipboard, acrylic, plexiglass, PVC, composite materials, and soft metals. This machine is widely used in industries such as woodworking, furniture manufacturing, interior and exterior decoration, souvenir production, outdoor advertising, industrial applications, prototyping, and mold making.
Technical specifications
The Wattsan A1 1325 features a working area of 1300 × 2500 mm with an increased Z-axis spindle stroke height of 200 mm. The basic version comes equipped with a 3.2 kW water-cooled spindle and an ER20 collet chuck, providing precision and efficiency in material processing.
The machine’s 8 mm thick heat-treated steel frame is reinforced with additional central supports to ensure structural stability and durability. The cast-iron gantry side posts are 21 mm thick, enhancing rigidity and ensuring a positioning accuracy of up to 0.5 mm. The machine’s total weight of 875 kg helps to absorb vibrations, maintaining accuracy at all operating speeds.
Design and construction
To enhance performance and durability, the machine undergoes a stress-relief process through high-temperature firing, preventing structural deformation due to mechanical or thermal factors. The gantry movement is powered by two-phase stepper motors with belt drives and Leadshine drivers, ensuring smooth and precise operation. For enhanced performance, hybrid stepper motors or servo motors can be installed upon request.
The machine features 20 mm thick high-rigidity guide rails, which are precision-milled and ground by robotic systems at the Wattsan factory. The installation process is done manually, ensuring the highest level of precision. Additionally, the machine is equipped with a mechanical lubrication system, providing consistent lubrication to all moving parts, thereby reducing wear and extending service life.
Control and operation
The standard control system of the Wattsan A1 1325 is NC Studio, but an optional DSP controller is available for a more user-friendly experience. The DSP controller allows operation directly from a USB stick, enabling users to download control files, adjust parameters in real-time, and maximize the machine’s potential. The milling machine connects to a computer via USB or D-SUB interfaces.
Optional features
The machine can be customized with various additional features to meet specific production needs:
- Vacuum table for secure workpiece fixation without additional fasteners.
- T-slot table as an alternative clamping solution.
- Chip evacuation system for clean and efficient operation.
- Rotary device for processing cylindrical workpieces.
- Vibration supports and portal leveling system for enhanced precision.
- Tool sensor for automatic tool calibration.
- Aspiration system for dust and debris extraction.
- Coolant and oil mist system for improved machining of metals.
- Upgraded spindle options for faster processing of materials, including aluminum.
