The Chevalier Machinery, Inc. FBL-520 is a heavy-duty horizontal CNC turning center engineered for high-precision machining of large and demanding workpieces. Featuring a robust 45-degree slant-bed design constructed from single-piece Meehanite® cast iron, the machine delivers exceptional rigidity and vibration damping for superior accuracy and surface finish. The main spindle offers a maximum turning diameter of 37.000" and a maximum turning length of 78.700", making it ideal for large-diameter and long-part applications such as oilfield components, aerospace parts, and heavy pipe threading. The spindle is powered by a 60 HP motor and equipped with a two-stage gearbox, generating up to 9,000 Nm of torque for efficient roughing and finishing operations on tough materials. The spindle achieves speeds up to 1,000 RPM, ensuring versatility across a wide range of machining requirements. The machine is outfitted with a 15" through-hole spindle, facilitating the processing of large bar stock and meeting API thread standards. The FBL-520 features a 12-station turret and box guide ways for enhanced stability and deep-hole boring capability. Standard FANUC 0i-TD control with digital servo drives ensures reliable, user-friendly operation and seamless integration into modern manufacturing environments. The dual-chuck, easy-access design simplifies loading and unloading of long parts, while live tooling options enable combined milling and turning operations in a single setup, maximizing productivity and reducing cycle times.
