EUROTECH ELITE B446/465/481 MULTIPLA SERIES HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Eurotech Elite B446/465/481 Multipla Series Horizontal Machining Center is a robust CNC machine designed for high-precision, high-output machining with a single main spindle delivering 35 HP power. It features a four-axis configuration with a primary tool carrier configured as a 12-station turret equipped with rotary live tools for versatile milling and drilling operations. The spindle operates at speeds up to 5,000 RPM with a 5″ ASA spindle nose and a 2.17" bore, supporting bar capacities up to 3.15" depending on the model. The machine’s construction includes a thermally stabilized cast-iron bed for enhanced stiffness and accuracy. It integrates advanced CNC controls, typically equipped with a Fanuc 31iTT system, providing precise programmable control over spindle, turret, and axis movements. Additional features include C-axis capability for contour milling, an optional sub-spindle for secondary operations, and a bar feeder interface facilitating automated part handling. The turret indexing speed is rapid, around 0.15 seconds per position, ensuring low idle times. The machine incorporates tool probing and life management systems and supports high-pressure coolant delivery with filtration for efficient chip evacuation and tool cooling. With options such as cutting fluid chillers and scale feedback on axes, it achieves micron-level precision adjustments. Its ergonomic design also supports programmable gantries and conveyors for streamlined parts handling and production automation. Overall, the B446/465/481 Multipla series offers a versatile, highly automated platform designed for efficient, precise, multi-axis horizontal machining in demanding production environments.
