Technical Description

The FADAL FL-12 Horizontal Machining Center is a robust CNC turning solution designed for high-precision production environments. Featuring a single main spindle, it supports a maximum turning diameter of 13.7 inches and a turning length of 23.6 inches, with a 10-inch chuck diameter and a maximum swing of 27.5 inches. The machine accommodates bar stock up to 3.62 inches in diameter, making it suitable for a wide range of cylindrical workpieces. The main spindle delivers 22.5 HP and operates at speeds up to 3,000 RPM, ensuring efficient material removal and surface finish quality. Tooling is managed via a turret-style primary tool carrier, supporting up to 12 tools with the ability to use one cutting tool at a time. The FL-12 operates on a 2-axis configuration, with extensive travel of 394 inches on both X and Y axes, and 394 inches on the Z axis, providing exceptional flexibility for large or complex parts. All axes feature a maximum feed rate and rapid traverse speed of 1,181 inches per minute, enabling fast cycle times and high throughput. This machining center is ideal for demanding applications in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing, where accuracy, reliability, and production efficiency are critical.
