SNK EXL-80 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The SNK EXL-80 is a versatile 5-axis horizontal turning/milling center designed for composite machining operations combining lathe and machining center capabilities. The machine features a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 31 inches and turning length of 95 inches, both operating at 2,000 RPM with 50 horsepower each. The swivel head primary tool carrier accommodates up to 40 turning tools and 40 rotary tools, with simultaneous single-tool cutting capability. A dedicated rotary tool spindle provides 25 horsepower at 3,000 RPM for secondary machining operations. The 5-axis configuration delivers comprehensive positional freedom, with X-axis travel of 33 inches, Y-axis travel of 10 inches, and Z-axis travel of 102 inches, enabling efficient multi-process machining of complex workpieces. The horizontal spindle orientation combined with the swivel head design allows for off-center functionality and flexible workholding options. With Fanuc 16i-TA CNC control, programmable tailstock, and programmable steady rest capabilities, the EXL-80 delivers high-efficiency machining for components requiring multiple turning and milling operations in a single setup. Maximum workpiece capacity reaches 5,500 pounds, making it suitable for mid-to-large production runs across aerospace, automotive, and general industrial applications.
