OKUMA LT2000 EX HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Okuma LT2000 EX is a sophisticated twin-spindle horizontal turning center engineered for multi-tasking precision machining operations. This machine integrates lathe and mill/drill functions on dual upper and lower turrets, each equipped with 16-station tool capacity for extensive tooling flexibility. The system features two main spindles operating at 6,000 RPM, with the primary spindle delivering 30 HP and the secondary providing 15.3 HP, enabling simultaneous machining operations that significantly reduce cycle times. With a maximum turning diameter of 8.27 inches, turning length of 5.12 inches, and 10-inch chuck capacity, the machine accommodates diverse part geometries and sizes. The 7-axis standard configuration expands to 9 axes with optional Y-axis and off-center mill/drill functionality, incorporating C-axis live tooling for complex shape production. Advanced rapid traverse capabilities reach 1,181 inches per minute across X, Y, and Z axes, with Z-axis travel extending to 28.74 inches. The rotary tool spindle delivers 7.5 HP at 6,000 RPM, supporting up to three simultaneous cutting tools for process-intensive operations. Complementary features include advanced thermal stability systems, user-friendly Okuma OSP control interface, and optional gantry loader integration for seamless automation. This compact footprint design maximizes shop floor efficiency while delivering superior accuracy and reliability for aerospace, automotive, and medical applications.
