SCHMID 362-5 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The SCHMID 362-5 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance CNC machine designed for precision and flexibility in metalworking. It features a 3-axis configuration with travels of 29.528 inches on the X-axis, 17.717 inches on the Y-axis, and 19.685 inches on the Z-axis, allowing for versatile machining of varied component sizes. Powered by a robust 34.9-horsepower spindle, it delivers speeds up to 8,000 RPM, suitable for diverse cutting applications. The machine utilizes an HSK 63 tool taper for secure and precise tool holding, with an automatic tool changer accommodating up to 35 tools, enhancing productivity through efficient tool management. The control system is the advanced SINUMERIK 840D CNC, enabling sophisticated programming and operation flexibility. This machining center offers a compact footprint but maintains high machining performance, ideal for components requiring tight tolerances and complex geometries. Its design supports both dry cutting and coolant-based operations, widening its applicability in manufacturing environments. The SCHMID 362-5’s horizontal spindle configuration facilitates improved chip evacuation and thermal stability, contributing to consistent machining quality and uptime. Overall, this machining center is engineered for medium-scale production scenarios where precision, reliability, and flexible tooling capacity are critical.
