MONFORTS RNC 400 CNC LATHES

Technical Description

The MONFORTS RNC 400 is a horizontal machining center engineered for precision turning and milling operations on medium-to-large workpieces. It features dual main spindles, each capable of 4,000 RPM with 30 HP output, accommodating workpieces up to 11 inches in diameter and 23.6 inches in length with an 8-inch chuck. The machine incorporates a 16.5-inch maximum swing and accepts bar stock up to 2.56 inches in diameter. The primary tool carrier utilizes DIN 40 tooling with capacity for 12 turning tools and 12 rotary tools, enabling simultaneous single-point cutting operations. The auxiliary rotary tool operates at 4,000 RPM with 17 HP. The RNC 400 provides two-axis CNC control with substantial X, Y, and Z-axis travels of 9.84, and 24.41 inches respectively, delivering rapid traverse rates of 945 ipm across all three axes for efficient non-cutting movements. This configuration makes the machine suitable for complex part production requiring both turning and milling capabilities in a single setup, reducing handling time and improving accuracy. The robust spindle design and rapid positioning capability enhance productivity for both high-precision finishing operations and heavier roughing passes in ferrous and non-ferrous material machining.
