With Stama's appropriately named TWIN spindle centers, it is possible to machine two identical workpieces at the same time. The use of energy in that case is on average only 20% higher than with a normal single-spindle machining center, according to the company. The increased consumption is primarily from the second milling spindle. In twin-spindle manufacturing, overall energy consumption per finished workpiece is thereby 40% lower than with single-spindle production.
