A+Technical Description
The 2022 Centroid A560XL is a 5-axis CNC machining center purpose-built for cylinder head porting, engine block machining, and complex multi-sided part processing in automotive performance and powertrain manufacturing environments. Unlike standard VMCs, the A560XL incorporates a B-axis tilting spindle head (+/-90 degrees) and a full 360-degree A-axis rotary table, enabling complete 5-axis simultaneous contouring for complex porting profiles and compound-angle features. The CAT-40 spindle delivers 36 HP continuously — with an optional 42 HP upgrade — and reaches a maximum speed of 20,000 RPM, providing the high-speed cutting capability required for precision port geometry and surface finish in aluminum cylinder heads. The work table measures 25.5 x 66.9 inches (650 x 1,700 mm), with axis travels of 60 inches in X, 26 inches in Y, and 37 inches in Z. A 40-position swing-arm ATC enables efficient tool management across complex multi-step machining cycles. Control is provided by the Centroid M400 5-Axis CNC system. Overall machine dimensions are 206 x 120 x 135 inches and the machine weighs approximately 23,000 lbs. The A560XL is a specialized machine optimized for the performance engine and motorsports industries and is not a general-purpose production VMC.
