DYNAMIC MACHINE Z42 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Dynamic Machine Z42 Horizontal Machining Center is engineered for precision turning with a maximum spindle turning diameter of 6.000 inches and turning length of 6.300 inches. It features a single main spindle with a 6.000-inch chuck diameter, supporting bar stock up to 1.250 inches in diameter. The spindle operates at speeds up to 6,000 RPM with a 7.5 HP motor, delivering robust power for a variety of turning applications. Tooling is managed via a gang tool carrier accommodating up to 6 turning tools, allowing for single simultaneous cutting tool operation, optimized for efficient, high-accuracy machining. The machine operates with 2 standard axes (X and Z), with optional 3-axis configurations to enhance operational flexibility. The X-axis travel spans 9.050 inches with rapid traverse rates of 630 inches per minute on X, Y, and Z axes, while the Z-axis offers 11.810 inches of travel, providing substantial workspace for diverse part geometries. This machining center blends the capabilities of turning and milling operations in a horizontal layout, suited for specialized component production requiring rigorous dimensional control and surface finish quality. Its combination of moderate spindle speed, gang tooling, and axis travel make it ideal for small to medium-sized parts requiring precision turning within constrained spatial limits. The machine’s design supports single-point cutting efficiency and rapid material removal with controlled tool paths, indicative of a flexible, high-performance CNC horizontal machining center in its class.
