The SW (Schweizer Werkzeugmaschinen) BA 312 is a high-performance horizontal machining center engineered for precision and versatility in demanding industrial environments. Featuring a robust monoblock design, the machine delivers exceptional rigidity and stability for consistent machining accuracy. The working envelope offers an X-axis travel of 21.654 inches (550 mm), Y-axis travel of 17.717 inches (450 mm), and Z-axis travel of 14.764 inches (375 mm), accommodating a wide range of workpiece sizes. Equipped with a powerful 42.9 horsepower spindle, the BA 312 achieves a maximum speed of 10,000 RPM, with an optional upgrade to 17,500 RPM for enhanced productivity. The spindle interface is HSK-A63, ensuring secure tool holding and efficient power transmission. The machine is controlled by a Siemens 840D SL CNC system, providing advanced programming capabilities, intuitive operation, and seamless integration with automation systems. Designed for friction stir welding applications, the BA 312 features a reinforced Z-axis capable of withstanding high axial loads up to 5000 N, making it suitable for heavy-duty machining tasks. The machine also includes a swivel axis for increased flexibility in complex part production. With a total weight of approximately 10 tons and overall dimensions of 6.30 x 3.85 x 3.70 meters, the BA 312 is built for durability and long-term reliability. Its double swivel table and multi-spindle configuration further enhance its adaptability for high-volume and multi-sided machining operations.
