SMEC CO., LTD SL 2000 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The SMEC SL 2000 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-precision, 2-axis CNC turning center engineered for demanding production environments. Featuring a robust box guide design, the machine delivers exceptional rigidity and vibration dampening for consistent accuracy and surface finish. The main spindle supports a maximum turning diameter of 14.170" and a turning length of 21.260", with a 6.000" chuck diameter and a maximum swing over the bed of 22.400". The spindle is capable of speeds up to 6,000 RPM, enabling efficient machining of a wide range of materials. The machine accommodates a bar diameter up to 2.010", making it suitable for both bar-fed and chuck applications. With a single main spindle and a 10-station tool turret, the SL 2000 supports up to one simultaneous cutting tool, ensuring reliable and precise operations. The X-axis travel is 8.270" and the Z-axis travel is 22.050", providing ample work envelope for complex turning tasks. Rapid traverse rates of 945 ipm on both axes minimize non-cutting time, enhancing productivity. The machine is equipped with advanced control features, including programmable tailstock, spindle orientation, and rigid tapping, while its compact footprint and user-friendly interface facilitate integration into modern manufacturing cells. Designed for durability and ease of maintenance, the SL 2000 is ideal for high-volume, high-precision turning applications.
