SCHIESS HORIMASTER 2-F HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Schiess HORIMASTER 2-F is a robust horizontal machining center designed for heavy-duty industrial applications. It features a large 108.27" x 88.58" work table capable of supporting workpieces up to 55,000 lbs, making it suitable for machining large, heavy components. The machine operates on three axes with optional expansion to four, with travels of up to 118.11" in X and Y directions, and 59.06" in Z, with rapid traverse rates of 630 inches per minute, enabling efficient workpiece positioning and machining flexibility. Its horizontal spindle uses a CAT 50 taper, standard with a maximum speed of 3,000 RPM and optional upgrade to 6,000 RPM, powered by a 70 HP motor delivering substantial cutting power. Tooling is managed through an Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) with capacity ranging from 1 standard tool up to an optional 160, allowing for extended uninterrupted machining cycles. The tool change time is approximately 30 seconds, with chip-to-chip time of 45 seconds. Optional features include support for index and rotary tables for enhanced workpiece manipulation, a U axis for rotary tooling, and a two-pallet changer system to improve productivity by reducing setup time. Designed for precision and heavy load capacity, the Schiess HORIMASTER 2-F offers a combination of large work area, high torque spindle, and flexible tooling options geared toward complex and sizable machining tasks in demanding industrial environments.
