PIETRO CARNAGHI ATF 8 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC turning center features a robust main spindle with a maximum turning diameter and swing of 39.370 inches, supporting workpieces up to 39.370 inches in length. The main spindle chuck diameter measures 31.500 inches, powered by an 80 HP motor capable of spindle speeds up to 1,000 RPM. Equipped with rotary live tooling, the machine includes a 41.5 HP rotary tool motor running up to 3,000 RPM, allowing milling and drilling operations in addition to turning. It supports a single simultaneous cutting tool and operates across 3 axes: X-axis travel of 39.370 inches and Z-axis travel of 29.530 inches standard, with an optional extended Z travel up to 39.370 inches; Y-axis travel is not specified. The system reaches a maximum feed rate and rapid traverse of 590 inches per minute, facilitating efficient material removal and cycle times. This configuration suits high capacity and versatile machining tasks, combining turning with live tooling for complex features. The machine’s large swing and chuck size accommodate sizable parts, supporting heavy-duty cutting and precise finishing. The absence of a specified Y-axis likely designates it as a 3-axis turning center primarily focused on turning and live tooling operations without Y-axis milling. Overall, its large size, substantial spindle power, live tooling capability, and high feed rates make it ideal for machining large, complex parts with integrated milling functions on a rigid, high-performance platform.
