PRECITECH 4000 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The PRECITECH 4000 Horizontal Machining Center features a robust main spindle capable of handling a maximum turning diameter of 16.000 inches and a turning length up to 10.000 inches, with a 10.000-inch spindle chuck diameter and max swing of 16.000 inches. It is equipped with a single main spindle operating at up to 3,000 RPM with 4.00 HP power, supporting moderate-speed precision machining. The machine employs a slide-type primary tool carrier, configured for one simultaneous cutting tool, facilitating focused and accurate machining operations. It operates on a 2-axis system, with the X-axis offering 8.000 inches of travel at a feeding and rapid traverse rate of 49 inches per minute. The Z-axis provides 10.000 inches travel, also with a 49 ipm rapid traverse rate, enabling effective horizontal machining of medium-sized workpieces. This configuration emphasizes rigidity and precision with relatively moderate spindle speed and power suitable for general horizontal turning and milling tasks. The machine’s axis stroke and feed rates balance accuracy and throughput for detailed component manufacture, particularly suited for parts requiring tight tolerances and moderate size ranges. The slide tool carrier and limited simultaneous tool cutting emphasize operations requiring steady, high-quality surface finishes and dimensional control rather than high-speed multi-tool processing. Overall, the PRECITECH 4000 is engineered for dependable horizontal machining with a focus on turning diameters up to 16 inches and efficient operation in industries where moderate spindle speed and precise axis control are essential.
