ARIX CNC MACHINES TMA60CL HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Arix TMA60CL is a 5-axis CNC horizontal machining center engineered for simultaneous multi-axis turning operations with integrated spindle synchronization. This machine accommodates workpieces up to 100 inches in turning diameter with a maximum turning length of 160 inches, making it suitable for large-scale component production. Powered by a single main spindle delivering 15 horsepower, the machine operates at a base speed of 40 RPM with an optional maximum capability of 3,000 RPM, enabling versatile machining of both heavy-duty rough cuts and precision finishing operations. The gang-type tool carrier configuration supports a maximum of five turning tools and eight rotary tools, providing comprehensive tooling flexibility for complex multi-operation sequences without tool changes. The 5-axis simultaneous control architecture enables full synchronization between the main and back spindles, significantly reducing production times through optimized tool paths and coordinated machining strategies. Rapid traverse rates of 15 inches per minute across the X, Y, and Z axes ensure efficient non-cutting movements throughout the cycle. This configuration makes the TMA60CL particularly well-suited for high-volume production runs involving intricate turned components, automatic chucking operations, and applications requiring integrated milling or drilling functions in a single setup, thereby enhancing overall manufacturing efficiency and reducing part handling requirements.
