PAMA SPEEDRAM 2000 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The PAMA SPEEDRAM 2000 is a heavy-duty horizontal machining center designed for large-scale, high-precision machining operations. It features a robust 4-axis configuration with an optional 5-axis setup, accommodating workpieces up to 110,000 lbs on its large table, which measures 98.43" by 98.43", extendable to 157.48" square. The machining center is equipped with a horizontal spindle tapering from 6.2" to 7" bar stock, delivering a peak speed of 3,500 RPM and a 111 HP motor (30-minute rating), with an optional 80 HP motor for specific applications. The tool carrier uses a single automatic tool changer (ATC), optimized for efficient tool swaps, although tool change chip time is recorded as negligible. Axis travels support extensive machining envelopes with an X-axis travel up to 157.48", Y-axis 118" (optional to 197"), and Z-axis 47.24", all capable of rapid traverse rates of 787 inches per minute. This machine is suitable for machining large, heavy components requiring precise horizontal spindle operations, high power, and large work envelopes. Its expansive travels and high load capacity make it ideal for sectors like aerospace, automotive, and heavy equipment manufacturing. The horizontal spindle orientation enhances chip evacuation and machining rigidity, complementing its large work support system and ATC functionality, designed for demanding multi-axis machining tasks.
