SHIBAURA MACHINE CO. BTD-13.R22 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Shibaura Machine Co. BTD-13.R22 Horizontal Machining Center features a robust 70.8" x 86.6" table supporting up to 22,000 lbs, designed for heavy-duty precision machining. It provides extensive travel capacities across five axes: X (118"), Y (90.5"), Z (63"), and a full 360° B-axis rotational capability, enabling complex multi-dimensional machining tasks. The spindle is a horizontal CAT 50 taper, powered by a 25 HP (30-minute rating) motor, reaching speeds up to 2,500 RPM. The spindle assembly includes a hardened, ground, and nitrided design with advanced air-oil mist lubrication for minimal thermal displacement and long-term accuracy. Tool management is efficient with a 60-station automatic tool changer (ATC), expandable to 90 tools, ensuring rapid tooling changes to maximize uptime. The machine offers rapid traverse rates up to 394 inches per minute on primary axes, supporting high productivity. Optional features include pallet changers with up to two pallets for increased workload flexibility. The BTD-13.R22 employs a highly rigid double-pinion B-axis drive and precise rotary scale for stabilized table indexing, enhancing high-speed precision machining typical of facing, boring, drilling, and tapping operations. The spindle end clamp mechanism increases cutting force and positional accuracy. The machine is compatible with the Tosnuc 777 CNC control, facilitating sophisticated 5-axis machining programs and optimized tool paths for complex industrial applications. Overall, the BTD-13.R22 is engineered for superior rigidity, thermal stability, and versatility in heavy and precise horizontal machining, serving industries that require exacting manufacturing standards.
