PROMECOR SMT 17 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Promecor SMT 17 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance CNC turning machine designed for precision and versatility in demanding production environments. Featuring a horizontal spindle orientation, it supports a maximum main spindle turning diameter of 9.840" and a turning length of 37.800", accommodating a wide range of workpiece sizes. The main spindle chuck diameter measures 7.870" with a maximum swing of 17.720", and it can handle bar stock up to 1.500" in diameter. The machine is equipped with a single main spindle, capable of 5,000 RPM and delivering 15.0 HP for robust cutting performance. The primary tool carrier is a turret, supporting up to 12 turning tools and 6 rotary tools, allowing for efficient tool changes and flexible machining operations. The system enables one simultaneous cutting tool, ensuring precise control during complex operations. Standard configuration includes 2-axis control, with optional upgrades to 3-axis capability for enhanced machining flexibility. Axis travels include 7.680" on the X-axis and 20.470" on the Z-axis, with rapid traverse rates of 787 IPM on all axes for fast positioning and reduced cycle times. The Promecor SMT 17 combines rigid construction, advanced CNC controls, and high-speed spindle technology to deliver reliable accuracy, productivity, and versatility for a broad spectrum of horizontal machining applications.
