CITIZEN L32-1M12 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The CITIZEN L32-1M12 is a sophisticated horizontal machining center engineered for multi-axis production with advanced turning and milling capabilities. This five-axis machine features a main spindle capable of turning workpieces up to 1.500" in diameter with a maximum length of 12.600", delivering 5 HP at 8,000 RPM for consistent performance across diverse applications. The machine incorporates a secondary spindle operating at identical specifications—8,000 RPM and 5 HP—enabling simultaneous dual-spindle operations that significantly enhance throughput and reduce cycle times. A dedicated sub-spindle, also rated at 8,000 RPM with 5 HP output, further expands the machine's versatility for complex part geometries requiring coordinated machining sequences. The system accommodates two simultaneous cutting tools, optimizing efficiency during multi-stage operations. Rapid traverse capabilities across all three primary axes—X, Y, and Z—reach an impressive 1,260 ipm, ensuring swift positioning and minimizing non-cutting time. The five-axis configuration provides comprehensive part access and angular capabilities, making this machine particularly suited for intricate aerospace, automotive, and medical components requiring precision turning and complex milling operations. The coordinated spindle design and rapid positioning system position the CITIZEN L32-1M12 as a versatile platform for high-precision, multi-operation manufacturing environments where production efficiency and component complexity are paramount.
