AMERA SEIKI S-100 CNC LATHES

Technical Description

The AMERA SEIKI S-100 is a robust horizontal machining center engineered for heavy-duty turning and milling operations. This machine features a single main spindle with a 400 RPM operating speed and 60 HP output, delivering substantial torque for demanding applications. The spindle accommodates workpieces up to 74.8 inches in turning diameter with a maximum turning length of 78 inches, while supporting bar stock diameters up to 6.5 inches through a 30-inch chuck. The spindle's 94.49-inch maximum swing provides substantial clearance for complex geometries and part handling. The machine operates on a two-axis configuration with generous travel dimensions: 47.24 inches on the X-axis and 78.7 inches on the Z-axis, enabling machining of large, complex components. All three axes feature rapid traverse rates of 590 inches per minute, optimizing cycle times for production efficiency. The primary tool carrier utilizes a turret design with capacity for up to four turning tools and four rotary tools, though only one tool executes cutting operations simultaneously. This configuration allows sequential tool engagement for multi-operation workpiece processing. The S-100's substantial spindle horsepower and low-speed, high-torque characteristics make it particularly suitable for large-diameter components, heavy interrupted cuts, and applications requiring significant cutting forces. The machine's rigid construction and powerful spindle capabilities position it for use in aerospace, automotive, and heavy industrial manufacturing environments where precision large-part machining is essential.
