This Schiess BF 16 is a used boring mill — also known as a horizontal boring machine — available from stock in Belgium. Boring mills of this type are heavy-duty machine tools designed for precision drilling, boring, and milling of large, complex workpieces, commonly used in industries such as energy, mining, heavy engineering, and general metalworking. Schiess is a long-established German manufacturer with a reputation for producing large, robust machine tools built to demanding industrial standards.
The machine is equipped with a 160 mm spindle bore diameter, providing substantial capacity for heavy-duty cutting work. Spindle power is rated at 45 kW, delivering the torque needed for demanding boring and milling operations in tough materials. The W-axis spindle traverse measures 800 mm, giving considerable reach for deep boring operations without repositioning the workpiece.
Cross traverse on the Y-axis, covering table or column movement, extends to 3,000 mm, allowing the machine to accommodate very large components and wide ranges of machining positions in a single setup. A rotary table measuring 2,000 mm by 1,600 mm is included, providing a generous working surface for mounting and indexing large parts. A turntable is noted as optional, offering additional flexibility depending on the buyer's application requirements.
For control and accuracy, the machine is fitted with a Heidenhain digital readout system, a trusted and widely used solution in precision machining environments that gives the operator reliable positional feedback during operation.
