Levicron GmbH is a leading developer and manufacturer of non-contact ultra-precision air-bearing motor spindles for micro precision and ultra-precision machining applications. Levicron has been established as a world leading industrial company in ultra-precise motor spindles ever since. Levicron’s expertise is not only based on decades of practical experience in spindle design but also on using innovative mathematical models, simulations, and test methods in structural analysis and fluid dynamics.
As a pioneer in CNC machining spindles with aerostatic bearings, industrial tool interfaces (HSK), and full CNC
functionality, Levicron has globally set standards. Levicron products not only meet the highest demands of the customers in CNC and Ultra-precision machining, but is also committed to exceeding them. Levicron uses patented bearing technologies, spring-less HSK clamping systems and in-house developed motor and encoder systems to make sure the spindles always represent the cutting edge of spindle technology. With a vertical manufacturing integration of more than 90%, including CNC turning, milling, external cylindrical grinding, internal grinding,diamond machining, and wire EDM, Levicron has gained exceptional control of every aspect of the manufacturing process.
Levicron Solutions
