LEADWELL T-7 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The LEADWELL T-7 is a compact horizontal machining center engineered for precision turning and milling operations. It features a single main spindle with dual 4,500 RPM capability at 20 HP output, enabling efficient power delivery for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The spindle accommodates workpieces up to 13.78 inches in diameter with a maximum turning length of 22 inches, supported by an 8-inch chuck and 2-inch maximum bar diameter capacity. The machine's 20.4-inch maximum swing radius provides generous clearance for complex component geometries. The tool management system utilizes a 12-position turret capable of holding turning tools, with single-tool simultaneous cutting for streamlined operations. The machine offers two-axis control with rapid traverse rates of 787 inches per minute across all axes, facilitating quick non-cutting movements between operations. The X-axis provides 7.7 inches of travel, while the Z-axis delivers 23.62 inches of longitudinal workpiece access. This configuration makes the T-7 ideal for small to medium-sized production runs requiring reliable turning and milling capabilities in a space-efficient footprint. The combination of dual spindle configuration, substantial power output, and moderate cutting speeds positions this machine for consistent performance in job shop and dedicated production environments where versatility and precision are essential.
