BARER ENGINEERING D97 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Barer Engineering D97 Horizontal Machining Center is a versatile 5-axis CNC machine designed for precision machining with a horizontal spindle orientation. It features an ISO 20 taper spindle capable of speeds up to 12,000 RPM, with an optional upgrade to 60,000 RPM, powered by a 5 HP motor rated for 30 minutes. The spindle is equipped with an Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) that holds up to 10 tools, enabling efficient tool swaps to support varied machining tasks. The machine's working envelope includes travel distances of 11.000 inches on the X-axis, 7.500 inches on the Y-axis, and 7.100 inches on the Z-axis, facilitating precise movement and machining of medium-sized workpieces. Rapid traverse and maximum feed rates are optimized for productivity, though specific values were not provided. The D97 does not include a U-axis but supports complex 5-axis machining through coordinated movement of its three linear axes and two rotary axes, enhancing capability for intricate part geometries. This machining center is tailored for applications demanding tight tolerances and surface finishes, backed by its solid construction and spindle power. Its relatively compact tool capacity suits small to moderate production runs that require flexibility and precision. Overall, the Barer D97 combines moderate spindle speed, sufficient power, and a 5-axis configuration for efficient horizontal machining in diverse manufacturing environments.
