SW (SODICK) W04-22 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The SW (Sodick) W04-22 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance CNC machine designed for precision and productivity in complex part machining. It features X, Y, and Z-axis travels of 15.748, 19.685, and 16.732 inches respectively, providing a flexible workspace suitable for various components. Powered by a 70-horsepower spindle motor capable of reaching up to 17,500 RPM, it ensures high-speed machining with strong torque output. The machine uses an HSK-A63 tool taper supporting a large tool changer capacity of 72 tools, enabling versatile, uninterrupted operations. Equipped with a Siemens SINUMERIK 840D CNC control, the W04-22 offers advanced programmability and precise multi-axis coordination. Its architecture incorporates linear motor direct drives and torque motors in rotary axes for minimal non-cutting time and enhanced dynamic performance. The monoblock design grants superior machine rigidity and stability at high acceleration rates, contributing to consistent accuracy during high-speed machining tasks. Applications focus on non-ferrous metals like aluminum, optimized for high-productivity industrial sectors requiring exacting tolerances and reduced setup times. The tool change system operates efficiently with rapid chip-to-chip times, maintaining throughput in demanding production environments. Overall, the SW W04-22 blends robust power, cutting-edge motion technologies, and flexible tool handling to meet the needs of advanced precision machining.
