EXPAND MACHINERY CYCLONE 25/32 CY HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Expand Machinery Cyclone 25/32 CY is a 4-axis CNC horizontal machining center engineered for precision multi-tasking screw machine operations. This versatile machine accommodates workpieces up to 1.250" in turning diameter with a maximum turning length of 3.000" and accepts bar stock up to 1.000" in diameter. The primary spindle delivers 5.00 HP (expandable to 7.50 HP) at speeds up to 6,000 RPM, while integrated rotary live tooling operates at 1.00 HP and 6,000 RPM. The machine features dual tool carriers: the primary slide accommodates up to 5 turning tools and 4 rotary tools, while the secondary slide holds 3 additional rotary tools, enabling simultaneous cutting operations. The 4-axis configuration (X, Y, Z, and C-axis) provides comprehensive positioning control with X and Y travel of 7.500" and 11.400" respectively, and Z-axis travel of 6.500". Rapid traverse rates reach 708 ipm across all linear axes, with maximum feed rates of 236 ipm supporting aggressive cutting strategies. The machine supports full secondary mill/drill functionality both on-center and off-center, with C-axis and Y-axis coordination for complex geometries. This design eliminates the guide bushing requirement typical of traditional Swiss-style machines, reducing setup time and material waste while delivering superior workpiece concentricity and cutting rigidity ideal for both rough and finish operations on shorter length-to-diameter ratio components.
