The Big Machine Company raises the bar once again
Lagun ML6 Groundworks
The Big Machine Company raises the bar once more.
We’re thrilled to announce a milestone for TDT and Lagun — the imminent arrival of the first-ever Lagun ML floor-type bed mill! This powerhouse machine, a six-metre marvel, is built for robust performance, featuring two 2.5-metre rotary tables, each capable of supporting 20 tonnes equipped with a programmable 1-degree/1-degree universal head, this installation marks a new era in precision and capacity for the end user.
But before we reveal this engineering feat in its entirety, let’s take a closer look at the foundation being laid. Every stage—from the groundwork to the structural supports—is meticulously designed to handle the weight and precision demands of this Lagun machine. Stay tuned as we share these behind-the-scenes glimpses and build anticipation for the full installation!
Why the Lagun ML Floor-Type Bed Mill?
For those unfamiliar, Lagun’s ML floor-type bed mill is a high-capacity, precision-driven machine crafted for versatility and performance. Its dual rotary tables mean increased throughput and the ability to handle larger, heavier parts with ease. Plus, the programmable head offers unparalleled control, enabling fine-tuned adjustments at 1-degree increments to tackle complex machining tasks. It’s the kind of machine that exemplifies engineering excellence, and we’re proud to bring it to the UK market for the very first time. The customer can select any table configuration from simple floor plates to rotary tables working together or independently.

Foundation First: Building for Precision
A machine of this magnitude demands a foundation as robust as the capabilities it delivers. Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing photos and insights into the foundation build, a critical step in ensuring the stability and accuracy of the ML bed mill. From the reinforced concrete to the precision alignment, each stage brings us closer to the big reveal.
We’d like to extend our gratitude to the team at MSP Construction for their invaluable expertise and guidance throughout the foundation-building process. Their commitment to precision and quality has been instrumental in preparing the site to support the Lagun ML floor-type bed mill’s demanding requirements. From initial planning to final execution, MSP’s experience and dedication have laid a solid foundation—both literally and figuratively—that will ensure optimal performance and stability for years to come.
