10-axis three-spindle CNC beam drill line
3 ADM Venera
The Akyapak 3 ADM Venera represents the latest evolution in CNC beam drilling technology, combining three independent high-speed spindle units with integrated BYRED software for programming-free drilling, cutting, and milling operations. Each spindle operates across a 500 mm sub-axis range, enabling simultaneous multi-side processing of H-beams, channels, angles, and plates without repositioning the workpiece. The Venera edition adds fully automated sensor-driven material handling, magnetic length measurement, and laser alignment — reducing operator involvement and maximising throughput. Available from ACM in Cambridge, Ontario with full installation, training, and service support.
7-axis three-spindle CNC beam drill line
3 ADM Eco
The Akyapak 3 ADM Eco delivers three-spindle CNC beam drilling at an accessible price point for fabricators who need to stay competitive without the capital outlay of a full 10-axis system. All three drill heads process independently on each side of the profile, and the material repositions automatically after each horizontal operation. While the Eco omits the sub-axis traversal of the full 3 ADM, its high-speed spindles maintain the same drilling diameter range and BT 40 tooling compatibility. ACM supplies the 3 ADM Eco from Cambridge, Ontario with full installation, commissioning, and ongoing technical support.
Single-spindle CNC drilling line
Meteor 1200
The Akyapak Meteor 1200 is a single-spindle CNC drilling line built for fabricators who need reliable profile processing in a compact footprint. Designed to handle beams, angles, flat sheets, and various structural sections, the Meteor drills holes from 3/8" to 1-1/4" at speeds up to 3,000 rpm, and performs milling for slots and pockets through its 6-station automatic tool changer. Available in working lengths from 20 to 85 feet, the line scales to match your shop’s throughput requirements. ACM supplies the Meteor 1200 from our Cambridge, Ontario location with installation, training, and full after-sales support.
