SMTCL FBC160 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The SMTCL FBC160 Horizontal Machining Center is a heavy-duty CNC horizontal machining center designed for large and complex workpieces, featuring a 78.7" x 78.7" standard table size, with optional expansions up to 98.4" x 118.0", capable of supporting up to 44,000 lbs. The machine operates primarily with three axes (X, Y, Z), with an optional fourth U-axis and a full 360° B-axis capable of rotary motion, providing enhanced flexibility for machining complex geometries. It uses a #50 taper horizontal spindle rated at 68 HP for 30 minutes, with a maximum speed of 1,500 RPM, optimized for heavy cutting tasks. Feed rates reach up to 236 inches per minute with rapid traverse movements at 314 inches per minute along all axes, ensuring efficient and swift workpiece processing. It features a 40-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) for continuous production without manual intervention. While no pallet changer is included, the machine is compatible with optional support rotary tables for indexing and positioning. The structural design emphasizes stability and rigidity suitable for high-precision horizontal boring and milling applications in heavy industries. The combination of large table capacity, robust spindle power, multi-axis flexibility, and substantial tool magazine capacity makes the FBC160 ideal for machining large castings, heavy forging, and complex parts that require precise multi-sided machining operations.
