SMEC CO., LTD IMT 420S HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The SMEC Co., Ltd IMT 420S is a 9-axis integrated multi-tasking horizontal machining center designed for advanced turning and milling operations. The machine features a main spindle chuck diameter of 10.000 inches with an optional 12.000-inch configuration, providing versatility for various workpiece sizes. The main spindle achieves a maximum swing of 26.000 inches, enabling machining of larger diameter components. Equipped with a single main spindle operating at speeds ranging from 35 to 10,000 RPM, the IMT 420S delivers high-speed cutting capabilities suitable for precision work. The machine accommodates one simultaneous cutting tool, allowing focused, efficient machining operations. With 12 tool positions and synchronized C1 and C2 axes, the IMT 420S enables complex multi-axis work including simultaneous turning, milling, and boring functions. The machine is controlled by a Fanuc Oi-TD CNC system, ensuring precise programming and repeatability. Featuring a low center of gravity design, the IMT 420S minimizes vibration and thermal distortion to maintain high precision throughout operations. The machine weighs approximately 18,000 kilograms and requires a floor space of 6,354 x 3,218 x 3,092 millimeters, making it suitable for professional manufacturing environments. Its BMT-type machining feature provides integrated machining capability, allowing completion of multiple operations in a single setup, thereby reducing production time and enhancing efficiency for automotive, aerospace, and precision manufacturing applications.
