Advantages
Why Choose CNC Drilling & Milling?
Eliminate Secondary Ops
Drill, tap, mill, and cut on a single platform. No more moving parts between machines - reduce handling time and errors.
Precision Hole Quality
Clean through-holes without burrs, ±0.003" repeatability measured with laser interferometer per ISO 230-2.
Multi-Process Integration
Up to 5 processes per gantry. Plasma, oxyfuel, drilling, tapping, milling, and marking in one setup.
Increased Throughput
Fewer setups, less handling, faster production. Move from raw plate to finished part on a single machine.

Multi-tool plate processing gantry
Element 500
The Element 500 is Messer's multi-tool plate processing gantry, for structural steel shops that want drilled bolt holes and cut parts off the same machine. The GD40 drill head rides on the same reinforced beam as the plasma and oxyfuel tools, so a connection plate can be drilled, tapped, countersunk and cut in one setup instead of travelling between a cutting table and a drill line. The GD40 drills up to 1-9/16" through a Suhner CAT 40 spindle, with automatic tool changes and an optional 12-tool storage unit. A servo-controlled hold-down clamp keeps the plate steady while it drills, and air nozzles clear the chips before the next tool or torch goes to work. Cutting widths run from 6' to 16' and lengths up to 150', with room for up to six torch stations, including Bevel-S plasma bevelling and ALFA oxyfuel. AC Machinery supplies, installs and supports the Element 500 across Ontario and Eastern Canada.

FAQ
CNC Drilling & Milling Questions
Answers to common questions about our cnc drilling & milling products.
A CNC drilling and milling system uses computer-controlled tool heads to drill precise holes, tap threads, and mill surfaces on plate material. When combined with plasma or oxyfuel on the same gantry, it eliminates the need for secondary operations.
Drilling produces cleaner, more precise holes than plasma cutting, especially for bolt holes and threaded connections. Milling provides flat, machined surfaces. Use drilling/milling when hole quality and surface finish matter.
Yes. All four platforms combine drilling with plasma and oxyfuel cutting on the same gantry. The MPC2000 MC and TMC4500 also mill, and the Element 500 drills, taps, counterbores and countersinks with its GD40 head.
Yes. Full installation, commissioning, operator training, and dedicated service support from Ontario-based technicians.
Yes. Multiple process configurations, automation options, and process configurations are available.
