PROMECOR SMT 37 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Promecor SMT 37 is a CNC horizontal machining center designed for versatile turning and milling operations. Featuring a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 13.700 inches and turning length capacity of 39.370 inches, this machine accommodates workpieces up to 2.000 inches in bar diameter. The 12.400-inch chuck diameter and 21.650-inch maximum swing provide substantial gripping and clearance capabilities for mid-sized components. The primary spindle delivers 25 horsepower at 3,200 RPM, enabling efficient material removal across diverse applications. The machine employs a turret-based tool carrier system with capacity for 12 turning tools and 12 rotary tools, supporting simultaneous single-point cutting operations through optimized tool sequencing. The rotary function includes 2.70 horsepower for secondary milling and drilling capabilities. Standard configuration provides two axes of CNC control, with optional three-axis configurations available for enhanced machining flexibility. Rapid traverse rates of 787 inches per minute across the X, Y, and Z axes ensure minimal non-cutting time. The X-axis travel of 11.420 inches and Z-axis travel of 37.800 inches define the working envelope, facilitating complex part geometries and extended component lengths. This machine represents a mid-range production platform suitable for job shops and contract manufacturers requiring balanced capability in turning, boring, and light milling operations with reliable automation and repeatable precision.
