Danobat group will highlight its latest engineering developments at BIEMH 2026, taking place from 2–6 March at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre. The group will exhibit at Stand C10, Hall 1, presenting advanced machine-tool technologies from its cooperatives Danobat and Soraluce, aimed at meeting the demands of high-specification industrial sectors.
Among the headline systems on display will be the Danobat CGX cylindrical grinding machine and the Soraluce FLP 80 milling-boring machine. Danobat will also introduce hard turning systems and CNC-based robotic solutions, while Soraluce will demonstrate aerospace-focused machining technologies and intelligent automation platforms.
Danobat will use the exhibition to present new developments in grinding and hard turning, including the dBOT robotic system designed to expand automation capabilities in precision manufacturing. Visitors will be able to see the CGX cylindrical grinder, engineered to combine compact dimensions with high workpiece capacity. The machine can process parts up to 1,800 mm in length, 540 mm in diameter and weighing as much as 500 kg, while requiring significantly less floor space than comparable moving-table machines.
The CGX incorporates the newly developed MDM-100 automatic multi-diameter measuring system. Designed specifically for compact cylindrical grinders, this system enables automated measurement before, during and after machining. By reducing manual intervention, it supports consistent dimensional control and improved process stability.
The MDM-100 is suited to manufacturers handling multiple part types and varying diameters. It measures components ranging from 5 to 125 mm, including parts with interrupted surfaces or complex geometries, achieving accuracy of ±1.5 microns and repeatability of 1 micron.
Soraluce will present its FLP 80 milling-boring machine from the Productivity Line range. Developed for large components, the system delivers high material removal rates, stability and precision. It features technologies such as DAS active damping, adaptive control and spindle interpolation for turning operations.
The company will also demonstrate its Intelligent Automated Solutions concept, which integrates machines, pallet systems, tooling, automation and software into a unified production environment. This approach is designed to optimise workflow efficiency and reduce idle time.
A dedicated aerospace section will display solutions for aerostructures, engine components and landing gear, incorporating five-axis machining, vibration control, multifunction heads and process monitoring. Highlights include gantry milling systems for large structural parts and a new fork-type five-axis milling head developed for high precision and flexibility when working with advanced materials.
Alongside its technology showcase, Danobatgroup will participate in WORKinn, the employment forum held in parallel with BIEMH. The group will promote its cooperative model and engage with emerging engineering talent as part of its ongoing commitment to workforce development.
With 70 years of expertise in industrial manufacturing technologies, Danobatgroup employs over 1,400 highly skilled professionals and generates €344 million in annual revenue. As a member of the Mondragon Corporation, the group is a global leader in machine tools and advanced manufacturing, with Danobat, Soraluce, and Goimek as its core companies.
