Swift Nx is a 5-axis multi process machining platform designed for high-precision complex machining. The series combines an FE-optimized structure, a high-speed motorized spindle, and an integrated cradle-type rotary table to support indexing accuracy and high surface finish on complex parts.
Swift Nx is offered in two sizes, Swift Nx5 and Swift Nx8, making it easier to match the platform to your work envelope while keeping the same core 5-axis concept. The series is positioned for industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, energy, and advanced manufacturing.
Swift Nx is designed around accurate complex 5-axis machining, with scales on the linear axes and absolute encoders on the rotary axes as standard. This supports stable kinematics and repeatability when machining complex geometries.
Swift Nx features a motorized, built-in spindle designed for high torque and high-speed machining, with spindle speed listed at 12,000 rpm and an available 15,000 rpm option. This makes the platform suitable for both productive roughing strategies and high-quality finishing on complex components.
Swift Nx uses an integrated cradle-type rotary table concept designed to deliver precise indexing accuracy and high surface finish. This cradle architecture supports multi-face machining in fewer setups and helps reduce repositioning errors in complex part production.
Swift Nx highlights a gantry structure designed for high rigidity, with tandem control/gantry drive for the tilting axis. This supports stable cutting behaviour and consistent machining results across longer cycles.
Swift Nx includes a 32-tool chain-type tool magazine that is isolated from the working zone. The practical benefit is a cleaner workflow, improved ergonomics, and better productivity in production environments where tool access and chip containment matter.
Swift Nx is listed with Siemens Sinumerik One with M dynamics and a 15-inch colour multi-touch display. This supports advanced 5-axis motion control, smoother toolpaths, and a modern operator interface for day-to-day production.
Swift Nx includes a production-ready standard feature set designed to support stability, repeatability, and daily shopfloor reliability.
Roller type guideways for all linear axes and precise ball-screws for controlled motion
Automatic centralised grease lubrication system for consistent maintenance routines
Backlash and pitch error compensation to support positioning consistency
Absolute encoders for all axes and standard linear/rotary feedback architecture
Electronic counterbalance for the vertical axis to support stable Z-axis behaviour

Swift Nx is available in two sizes designed for different part envelopes.
Swift Nx5 is listed with a Ø500 pallet, X/Y/Z travels of 700/795/600 mm, spindle speed 12,000 rpm (15,000 option), spindle power 27/40 kW, and 400 kg payload.
Swift Nx8 is listed with a Ø800 pallet, X/Y/Z travels of 1100/1100/600 mm, spindle speed 12,000 rpm (15,000 option), spindle power 40 kW, and 1000 kg payload.
Swift Nx is positioned for complex part machining where multi-face access, precision, and stable finish quality are required.
Common application fit includes:
Aerospace components requiring complex 5-axis machining and high surface integrity
Automotive and mobility parts where productivity and repeatability matter
Medical components requiring precise geometry and consistent finish
Energy-sector components where stability and multi-face machining reduce setups
Advanced manufacturing applications where complex features must be completed in fewer clampings
Swift Nx is a 5-axis multi process machining platform designed for high-precision complex machining with a production-ready approach. With an FE-optimized high-rigidity structure, motorized high-torque spindle, integrated cradle-type rotary table, ergonomic chain tool magazine, and Siemens Sinumerik One control, Swift Nx is built to support accurate 5-axis simultaneous machining in industries that demand both precision and productivity.
