MILLTRONICS USA, INC. ML18/60 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Milltronics USA, Inc. ML18/60 Horizontal Machining Center is a versatile CNC lathe designed for precision tool room and job shop applications. It features a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 9.250", a turning length of 27.900", and a chuck diameter of 12.750", supporting a maximum swing of 19.000" and a bar diameter capacity of 1.250". The spindle delivers 24 HP at up to 2,600 RPM, with a secondary rating of 15 HP at the same speed, ensuring robust performance for a wide range of materials and operations. The machine is equipped with a bi-directional primary tool carrier and an 8-station automatic turret, allowing for efficient tool changes and flexible machining setups. With two axes of motion, the ML18/60 provides 12.000" of X-axis travel and 63.500" of Z-axis travel, supporting precise part handling and extended workpiece lengths. Axis feed rates reach 100 ipm, while rapid traverse rates are 500 ipm on both X and Z axes, enabling fast cycle times and high productivity. The system supports up to 8 turning tools and 8 rotary tools, though only one tool can cut simultaneously. This combination lathe integrates solid construction, advanced CNC control, and a compact footprint, making it ideal for demanding production environments requiring accuracy, reliability, and ease of operation.
