The SW 742 Horizontal Machining Center from Schweizer Werkzeugmaschinen is a high-performance CNC machine designed for precision and productivity in industrial machining applications. It features substantial axis travels with 13.78 inches on the X-axis, 25.591 inches on the Y-axis, and 21.654 inches on the Z-axis, accommodating a wide range of part sizes. The machining center is powered by a robust 150.2 horsepower spindle motor capable of reaching speeds up to 10,000 RPM, enabling efficient high-speed milling and cutting operations. The tool spindle uses an HSK A-100 taper, known for rigidity and accurate tool holding, supporting advanced machining tasks. It includes a tool magazine with a capacity of 56 tools, allowing extended unmanned operation and swift tool changes. The machine’s control system is a Siemens SINUMERIK 840D SL CNC, providing advanced multi-axis control, programmability, and precise motion control to optimize machining processes and improve part quality. The design of the SW 742 emphasizes rigidity and stability to reduce vibration and enhance surface finish while maintaining consistent accuracy. This machining center is well suited for complex part manufacturing in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and tooling, balancing power, range of motion, and automation to maximize throughput and flexibility.
