SMTCL CAK3665I HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The SMTCL CAK3665i is a 2-axis CNC horizontal turning center engineered for precision machining of shaft-type components and bar stock. Equipped with a Fanuc 0iTD control system, this machine delivers versatile turning capabilities with a maximum spindle turning diameter of 12.600" and an extended turning length of 21.600", accommodating various workpiece geometries. The machine features an 8.000" chuck diameter with a 14.100" maximum swing and accepts bar stock up to 2.000" in diameter. The single main spindle operates at 2,000 RPM with 15 HP power output, providing consistent cutting torque for medium-duty machining operations. A 4-station tool post configuration enables rapid tool indexing, though only one cutting tool operates simultaneously, optimizing precision and reducing tool deflection. The machine's 2-axis kinematics include 8.600" X-axis travel and 25.600" Z-axis travel, providing ample working envelope for complex turning profiles. Positioning accuracy meets IT6-IT7 standards with comparable repeatability specifications, ensuring tight tolerances for quality production. The flat bed construction provides high rigidity and dimensional stability critical for repeatable precision work. This economical turning center combines proven design principles with modern CNC automation, making it suitable for small-to-medium production runs requiring reliable, repeatable results in metal cutting applications across diverse materials and processes.
