INDEX TRAUB MS40 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The INDEX TRAUB MS40 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance, multi-spindle CNC turning machine designed for precision and productivity in complex part manufacturing. It features 6 main spindles with a maximum turning diameter of 1.570" and turning length of 6.000", supporting bar diameters up to 1.600". Each main spindle operates at a top speed of 7,000 RPM with 17 HP power, while the sub spindle reaches 10,000 RPM at 21 HP, enabling simultaneous multi-spindle machining and increased throughput. The machine is equipped with two tool carriers: a front slide with up to 10 turning and rotary tools, and a back slide providing up to 8 turning and rotary tools, allowing up to 4 tools to cut simultaneously for efficient processing. It incorporates advanced features such as on-center secondary milling/drilling with a ‘C’ axis and standard 22-axis control architecture, expandable up to 62 axes for intricate multi-axis machining operations. The compact design allows easy access to the workspace for setup and maintenance, with hydrostatic-supported Z axes ensuring durability and precision. The machine supports rear-end machining with live tools, enabling off-center drilling, thread cutting, contour milling, and other complex operations. Control is managed via a Siemens S840D sl CNC system, facilitating flexible, high-speed synchronization across all spindles and tools. Overall, the MS40 is tailored for high-volume, precision machining tasks in demanding industries such as automotive, aerospace, and connectors, offering reduced cycle times and maximized productivity through simultaneous multi-spindle and live tooling capabilities.
