Haas
Compact Y axis turning
The ST-20 series Y axis turning centre has 4 in. (102 mm) of Y axis travel (+/- 2 in. /51 mm) from the centreline for off-centre milling, drilling and tapping. 

The machine is available in standard (maximum cutting capacity of 12 x 21 in./305 x 533 mm ) and “Super Speed” (maximum cutting capacity of 10 x 21 in./254 x 533 mm). Both machines have a maximum wing of 31.75 in. (806 mm) over the front apron, with a 20.75 in. (527 mm) swing over the cross slide.

 

Heinman
Multi-function lathe
The Chevalier multi-function FCL-1860 CNC lathe, from Heinman Machinery, is equipped with a frequency drive or servo drive. So spindle speeds and feedrates are infinitely variable.Spindle speeds automatically adjust to varying diameters keeping constant surface speed. Parts can be turned more efficiently by using manual, teach or CNC modes, or by combining them. 

 

Hwacheon
Small footprint turning
The Hi-Tech 450 turning centre features a 500 mm turning diameter and a turning length of 1340 mm. Available options include chuck sizes of 10, 12 and 15, a through-hole diameter of up to 132 mm and other options such as Y axis machining. 

A spindle with integral motor offers a low speed of 800 rpm and maximum speed of 3,500 rpm with a rapid feed rate of 20/24 m/min (X/Z). Turret indexing time to adjacent tools is only 0.25 sec. Turret capacity is 12 tools.

 

Hyundai WIA
Big bore turning
The L800A big bore heavy duty CNC turning centre has a 12.5 in. (318 mm) through-hole capacity for machining large cylindrical parts. A dual chuck design, one on each end of the spindle, offers workpiece support. Standard capacities are a 41.3 in. (1,049 mm) swing over the bend, a 32.3 in. (820 mm) swing over the carriage, a maximum turning diameter of 36.2 in. (919 mm), a maximum turning length of 65 in. (1,651 mm) and a 12.58 in. (320 mm) spindle bar capacity. It features a built-in tailstock with a 1,580 mm travel.

 

Mazak
Turning shaft workpieces
The Slant-Turn Nexus 600M is equipped with a headstock with a 14.75 in. (375 mm) diameter bore mounted on a 60 hp, 500 rpm turning spindle that generates up to 5,162 ft-lb. of torque for heavy duty cutting. 

The machine has a 12-position drum turret for rapid tool indexing. It also features a 10 hp, 4000 rpm milling spindle for roughing, grooving, end milling and face milling operations.

 

Mori Seiki
Integrated Y axis
The NLX2500Y/700 is a universal turning centre with a maximum turning diameter of 366 mm, turning length of up to 750 mm and travel paths of 260 and 795 in the X and Z directions. The machine has a 4000 rpm main spindle and can be equipped with a counter spindle and integrated Y axis. 

Bar loading can be machined at 80 mm diameters for traverse paths in the X and X axes. The tool turret has space for 10 or 12 tools.

 

 

Nakamura-Tome
Multi-tasking turning centre
The WY-250L multi-tasking centre has two high rigidity turrets, each with a Y axis of 3.93 in. (100 mm). X and Z axis speeds are 1,181 ipm (30 m/min) and 1,574 ipm (40 m/ming) respectively. Designed with a long 47.24 in. (1,200 mm) distance between spindles, the machine is designed for multiple tools in the cut simultaneously. It features a 60° slant bed, a maximum turning diameter of 8.86 in. (225 mm), a maximum turning length of 35.65 in. (905.5 mm) and a bar capacity of 2.5 in. (65 mm).

 

Okuma
