BIGGER STRONGER BETTER

It starts with steel. The Paladin is 24000 pounds of American Iron. It's not just the weight, it's how it's put together. Visit our factory in Kentucky and see for yourself, we would love to give you a tour.

It actually is built like a tank....

When it comes to motion controls, BBM is not trying to save money. We use state of the art Japanese FANUC servo controllers and servo drives.

Purchase with confidence.

Repeatability matters if you want years of precision. The advantage of precision ball screws becomes more apparent as the machine ages. Ball screws do a much better job maintaining accuracy and preventing gear lashing over time.

Simply a better way to build a machine.

Nope….it's not plastic. And it's not thin. And it will last the life of the machine and provide a solid flat surface to support pods and parts.

BBM precision mills the table surface to insure a truly flat surface on your machine. That's the correct way to do it.

The Paladin only comes in one size. 14' wide by 8' deep processing box.

With an Aluminum Slab Table that large it is often possible to fit an entire kitchen in one batch.

A bigger bed makes a big difference.

Bigger equals better when it comes to bearings and 45MM is huge!

Larger bearings ensure smooth traversing, less toroidal & axial play, and much longer life. When you start looking at the details you will come to understand that all machines are NOT created equal. Place a quarter next to the bearings and it becomes obvious.

AlphaCam has been the industry leader for drawing and programing with CNC machinery since the beginning. All Paladins come standard with Alphacam.

Choice matters, if you want to run your new Paladin on Taglio or DDX let our team know and we will show you the process for optioning those software alphacam suites.

We spent considerable time choosing our 21.5 inch wide touch screen, button layout and overall ergonomics of the control unit.

When you spend time looking at screens, it's important to choose something that the operator will enjoy using and present information in a clear and easy to understand way.

The BBM HMI (Human Machine Interface) was developed by BBM engineers to make operating the machine an intuitive logical process.

The information you actually need in fresh modern easy to understand layout.

The Paladin Z-axis tool plate cover is held securely in place by rubberized retention knobs. The weight of the cover is lifted with automotive supports protecting the counter-balance system, spindle and associated hardware.

Protection and easy access, it's easy to do both.

The rotary union is a part that will need occasional replacing. On many machine designs this task is a serous chore. Our engineers designed the Paladin to insure this task can be done in minutes, not hours. User maintenance should be easy and fast.

That is the BBM difference.

The Paladin comes standard with automated lubrication sending consistent oil to the bearings and ways. In a dusty gritty shop this system protects your investment and insures long life and peak performance. User maintenance really should be minimized if possible.

Because we know you hate doing it.

It might seem really strange to mention covering bearings and ways with bellows. It is an important detail that some manufactures simply don't think matters. Protecting ways and bearings are critical in a dusty gritty stone shop.

Common sense matters at BBM. 

When you look at a BBM it is interesting what is NOT there. We have reduced the amount of cable & tracks to a minimum. We use a tray on the back of the bridge to support a much more logical cable management strategy. This efficient layout dramatically reduces cat track and cable failure over the life of the machine.

Less is more.

Our process starts with a through decontamination routine. Quality prep work matters. The next critical step is an application of a two coat zinc corrosion preventive paint, followed by a top coat of "BBM White" automotive grade paint with a high gloss finish.

Because rust is dumb.

After your machine is built we take great care to properly protect your investment while it's traveling down the highway from our factory to yours. Our shrink wrap system provides the protection your new machine deserves.

Protecting your investment is serious business at BBM!

When you purchase a Paladin from BBM the price includes set-up, calibration and training at your facility. It sounds crazy to say this, but the price also includes the airfare, lodging and meals for our factory trained technician.

Our techs have years of experience installing routers and training stone shops on programing your machine with Alphacam.

In a perfect world we would install your machine, everything works perfectly and we never hear from you again. We don't live in that world. It's why we provide you with an incredible 2 year parts warranty.

At BBM service and support is the ultimate priority. We stock all parts for the Paladin at our factory in Kentucky. BBM has its roots and is also a technical machine service company.

Your new Paladin will come with a 5.5 HP advanced vacuum system with a coolant tank to create vacuum for locking down your pods and parts.

In addition to the vac system, you will also receive 24 high performance Blick Pods and -OPPDT four manifolds with your purchase.

The Paladin comes standard with 44 tool holders. More holders equals more profile sets on the machine and less messing around swapping out tooling.

Your purchase includes 44 high quality tool holders ready for your new tooling.

We are so confident in the build quality of the Paladin that we offer a 2 year or 2000 Hour parts warranty. That warranty includes sending a technician to your shop if needed for the first year.

Let that sink in.

Peace of mind and service after the sale is what BBM is all about.
