Modig, Ibarmia and LiCON Present Dual-Spindle, Multiprocess and High-Volume Machining Solutions
IMTS 2026: Modig Machine Tool, Ibarmia and LiCON showcase the Mill-Ex2, T Series Multiprocess and LiFlex II 776 i³ PC through live machining demonstrations.
Modig, Ibarmia and LiCON’s shared booth showcases machining solutions that combine high-speed productivity, multiprocess flexibility and high-volume manufacturing within one integrated exhibition concept.
The Modig Mill-Ex2 dual-spindle, high-speed machining center is designed for aluminum components in aerospace and automotive applications. Featuring independently driven spindles and axes, the system enables continuous machining with high dynamics, precise control and flexibility. The Mill-Ex2 is said to deliver stable performance, optimized throughput and efficient material removal while maintaining the accuracy required for complex aluminum structures.
The Ibarmia T Series Multiprocess range is a series of five-axis multitasking machining centers developed for medium and large, complex, high-value components. By combining milling, turning, drilling and other advanced processes in a single setup, the T Series Multiprocess reduces part handling, machine transfers and non-productive time. Its flexible machine architecture combines powerful spindles, high-capacity rotary tables and a choice of A- or B-axis tilting heads, providing broad machining access and the power, precision and stability required for demanding applications. The result is a configurable multiprocess platform designed to enable manufacturers to complete a wider range of operations in fewer machines.
Lastly, the LiCON LiFlex II 776 i³ PC twin-spindle machining center is designed for high-volume production environments where precision, repeatability and productivity are critical. At the heart of the machine is LiCON’s i³ technology, enabling independent compensation of both spindles across all three axes. Integrated sensors and intelligent algorithms actively compensate for thermal influences, promoting maximum machining quality, high positioning accuracy and stable production performance from the first part onward. At IMTS, the machine performs live machining demonstrations highlighting simultaneous machining and advanced multiaxis capabilities.
Visitors can experience how these technologies, supported by application expertise and integrated manufacturing solutions, are designed to reduce cycle times, simplify production flows, improve process reliability and create measurable productivity gains.
A key element of the presentation is a collaboration with Seco Tools. By bringing together expertise in machine tools, cutting tools and manufacturing processes, the partnership showcases a comprehensive approach to improving productivity, efficiency and competitiveness. The collaboration demonstrates how machine tool technology, tooling strategies and application engineering can be aligned to provide complete manufacturing solutions — with the aim of reducing cycle times, improving process reliability, lowering production costs and advancing manufacturing performance.
