TONGTAI SH-4000P HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TONGTAI SH-4000P is a high-performance CNC horizontal machining center designed for precision and efficiency. It features travel distances of approximately 24.0 inches on the X-axis, 22.8 inches on both the Y and Z axes, enabling versatile machining capabilities. The machine is equipped with a robust 15,000 RPM spindle with a CAT40 taper, powered by a built-in motor delivering up to 37 kW (50 HP peak), ensuring high torque and stable operations. The spindle incorporates hybrid ceramic bearings with air/oil mist lubrication to enhance durability and reduce heat. The CNC control is a Fanuc Oi-MF system with a user-friendly interface facilitating precise machining and automation. The SH-4000P includes a dual 400mm x 400mm pallet system with a pallet clamp force of 37,400 lbs and a pallet indexing accuracy of 0.001°, supporting workpieces up to 880-990 lbs. Rapid traverse rates reach up to 2362 inches per minute on all axes with 1G acceleration, maximizing productivity. A 60-station automatic tool changer accommodates tools up to 26.4 lbs and 11.8 inches long, enabling quick and flexible tooling. Additional features include coolant-through-spindle, a robust chip conveyor, and a high-pressure 20 bar coolant system to maintain machining accuracy and part quality. Constructed with an ultra-rigid Meehanite cast iron frame and a 3-point leveling system, this machine promises stability and longevity under heavy-duty industrial use. Overall, the SH-4000P offers a balance of power, precision, and automation suitable for demanding horizontal milling and drilling applications.
