ERGOMAT TBA 42 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

The SX-series CNC machining center is a compact, high-speed vertical machining system engineered for precision production of small to medium components. With a machining length of 3.94 inches and bar capacity of 1.65 inches, this machine is optimized for tight-tolerance work on smaller workpieces. The system weighs approximately 3,500 lbs, providing substantial rigidity while maintaining a relatively compact footprint suitable for continuous production environments. Equipped with FANUC 31iB CNC control, the SX delivers advanced automation capabilities including rapid axis movements and synchronized multi-axis coordination. The machine features a high-speed electro spindle with integral work piece changer, allowing workpiece exchange in approximately 4 seconds to minimize non-productive time. This hydraulically actuated workpiece changer uses a Hirth coupling mechanism for precise positioning and repeatable clamping. The SX-series incorporates a fast automatic tool changer with servo control and linear motion roller guide ways to maintain constant machining accuracy even at elevated cutting speeds. Standard features include both auto and manual coolant systems with centralized, programmable control for optimized chip management. The column-moving design positions moving mass outside the table area, ensuring dimensional stability throughout production runs. The machine's construction utilizes box-way guideways and robust mechanical foundations to deliver the rigidity necessary for aggressive cutting conditions and complex part geometries. This configuration makes the SX ideal for job shops and manufacturers requiring reliable, repeatable precision in high-volume production of small precision components with tight dimensional tolerances.
