CHEVALIER MACHINERY, INC. FNL-250SY HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Chevalier FNL-250SY Horizontal Machining Center features dual main spindles with 20 HP motors each, operating up to 4,500 RPM, and a sub spindle running at 6,000 RPM with 10 HP, enabling simultaneous dual-side machining and increased productivity. The machine supports a maximum turning diameter of 13.78" with an 8" spindle chuck and a maximum swing of 23.6". It accommodates bar diameters up to 2.55" for the main spindle. Equipped with a BMG60 primary tool carrier, it supports up to 12 turning and 12 rotary tools, with rotary tools powered at 8.5 HP and spinning up to 6,000 RPM. The FNL-250SY operates with 6 axes, providing precise control over complex geometries. Axis travels include 12.2" in X, up to 2.17" optional in Y, and 24.4" in Z, all capable of rapid traverse rates and maximum feed speeds of 945 inches per minute. The machine’s construction with a dual 30-degree slant bed and Bosch Rexroth roller linear guideways delivers high rigidity, low friction, and reduced vibration, enhancing accuracy and surface finish during high-speed cutting. It is suitable for demanding industries such as automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing, capable of handling diverse materials and intricate part profiles with efficient cycle times. This combination of powerful spindle capabilities, extensive tooling, and multi-axis movement makes the FNL-250SY a versatile and precise solution for complex turning and milling operations.
