SMEC CO., LTD SL 2000Y VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a main spindle chuck diameter of 6.000 inches and a maximum swing capacity of 26.000 inches, accommodating large workpieces efficiently. The spindle bore supports bar diameters up to 2.050 inches for standard operation and an optimal configuration allowing bars up to 2.680 inches in diameter, facilitating versatile machining of different stock sizes. The spindle motor delivers 15 HP at a maximum speed of 6,000 RPM, with an optional configuration providing 25 HP at 4,500 RPM to balance between torque and rotational speed depending on application requirements. The machine supports up to 12 tools with a single simultaneous cutting tool operation capability, ensuring flexible tooling options with precision. It operates on 4 axes, enabling complex geometries and multi-dimensional machining through comprehensive X, Y, and Z axis travels (exact travel distances unspecified). This vertical machining center spindle setup is designed to optimize power, speed, and tool capacity for a range of machining tasks, from heavy cutting requiring higher torque at lower RPMs to high-speed operations needing less torque but higher spindle speed. The 4-axis control expands its utility in advanced manufacturing environments, supporting intricate part profiles and efficient production. This spindle and tooling configuration is well-suited for precision, productivity, and adaptability in CNC turning operations.
