SW (SODICK) W02-22 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The SW (Sodick) W02-22 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-precision CNC machine engineered for complex 5-axis machining tasks. It features a compact workspace with X-axis travel of 7.874 inches (200 mm), Y-axis travel of 13.78 inches (350 mm), and Z-axis travel of 11.811 inches (300 mm), designed to handle diverse precision engineering applications. Powered by a 24.1 horsepower motor, the spindle achieves a maximum speed of 40,000 RPM utilizing the high-speed HSK-A40 taper interface, enabling rapid and accurate machining of difficult materials. This machining center utilizes linear and torque motor drives, providing accelerated axis feed rates up to 24 m/s² and rapid traverse speeds up to 120 m/min, ensuring efficient cycle times. The spindle-to-spindle distance is 250 mm, supporting dual-spindle operation and allowing fast chip-to-chip tool changes in under 2 seconds. The machine is equipped with a double swiveling workpiece carrier that facilitates loading parallel to machining, reducing downtime and increasing productivity. The control system is CNC-based, offering precise, direct, absolute position measuring systems with positioning tolerances around 0.004 mm. The machine’s robust design supports a workpiece load capacity exceeding 350 lbs per spindle and is suitable for industries such as aerospace, automotive impeller manufacturing, and fine precision fields like watchmaking. The W02-22 balances high-speed machining with exceptional accuracy, using advanced motor and control technology to maximize throughput and minimize wear for long-term operational efficiency. The overall footprint is optimized to fit within approximately 4 square meters, making it space-efficient for high-performance manufacturing environments.
