ACRA FEL-1600 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The ACRA FEL-1600 Horizontal Machining Center is a precision CNC lathe designed for turning operations with a maximum spindle turning diameter of 16.000" and a maximum turning length of 60.000". It features a single main spindle with an 8.000" chuck diameter, a max swing of 16.000", and supports a bar diameter up to 2.000". The spindle operates at speeds up to 3,000 RPM with a 5 HP motor, providing efficient cutting power. The machine is equipped with an electrical turret tool carrier supporting up to 4 turning tools, enabling versatile machining with one tool cutting simultaneously. It operates on 2 axes (X and Z), with an X-axis travel of 8.070" and a Z-axis travel of 37.000", both achieving a maximum feed and rapid traverse rate of 196 inches per minute. This configuration ensures fast and precise material handling and tool positioning. The FEL-1600’s rigid bed construction and induction-hardened ground ways enhance stability and accuracy during high-speed operations. The machine includes a coolant system and is suitable for production or prototype work, operable via manual, conversational, teach-and-repeat modes, or full CNC with G-code support. Its robust build and versatile control capabilities make it suited for a variety of machining tasks requiring precision turning within the specified size ranges. Overall, it balances power, precision, and flexible tool handling in a compact horizontal machining platform weighing approximately 4,800 pounds.
