SMTCL PBC160 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The SMTCL PBC160 is a heavy-duty horizontal machining center designed for large-scale, precision milling and boring operations. It features a robust worktable measuring 63.0" x 70.8" with a maximum workpiece weight capacity of 22,046 lbs, supporting substantial industrial machining demands. This 5-axis CNC machine utilizes a standard rotary table to enable complex multi-dimensional machining, though it does not include a support index table or U axis. The spindle is horizontally oriented with a #50 taper, delivering up to 2,900 RPM and 20 HP at a 30-minute rating, optimized for both heavy cutting and high-speed finishing. Tooling is managed via an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a capacity of 60 tools, enabling efficient and flexible tool usage without manual intervention. A pallet changer is not available on this model. Axis travels accommodate large workpieces with 118.1" in the X-axis, 78.7" in both Y and Z axes, and the B-axis allows 360° of rotation, ensuring comprehensive machining capability. The machine is controlled by a Fanuc 31i CNC system, known for reliability and precision in complex machining tasks. This machining center suits industries requiring large component machining such as aerospace, automotive, and heavy equipment manufacturing. Its combination of a heavy-duty worktable, extensive tooling capacity, and multi-axis functionality make it a versatile solution for high-volume and complex horizontal machining applications.
