SW (SODICK) W08-12 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Sodick W08-12 is a precision horizontal machining center designed for high-speed, high-accuracy metal machining operations. Featuring a robust CNC control system, this machine delivers professional-grade performance suitable for complex part production across ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The machine offers substantial work envelope capacity with X-axis travel of 59.055 inches, Y-axis travel of 35.433 inches, and Z-axis travel of 25.591 inches, enabling machining of moderately sized workpieces with multiple geometric complexities. The 17,500 RPM maximum spindle speed positions this machine in the high-performance category, facilitating rapid material removal rates and fine finishing capabilities. With 46.9 horsepower available, the W08-12 delivers sufficient cutting force for demanding machining applications while maintaining thermal stability during extended production runs. The HSK-A63 tool taper represents an industry-standard interface that accommodates a wide range of cutting tools, enabling versatile machining operations including drilling, boring, milling, and contouring. The horizontal spindle orientation allows for efficient chip evacuation and enables gravity-assisted workpiece handling through multi-pallet automation systems. CNC control integration ensures precise dimensional repeatability, programmable tool changers for reduced idle time, and advanced multi-axis coordination. The W08-12's compact footprint combined with its substantial cutting capability makes it well-suited for job shops, automotive suppliers, and precision component manufacturers requiring flexible, high-speed machining performance without consuming excessive floor space.
