TONGTAI SH-5000(P) HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The TONGTAI SH-5000(P) is a compact three-axis horizontal machining center engineered for precision metalworking applications. Featuring a robust CNC control system, the machine delivers 49.6 horsepower through a spindle capable of reaching 15,000 RPM, enabling efficient cutting across ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 28.74 inches on both X and Y axes, with 32.677 inches of Z-axis travel, providing adequate working envelope for mid-range production components. The CAT No. 40 tool taper with a 40-tool automatic tool changer capacity minimizes non-productive time through rapid tool changes, improving throughput on complex multi-operation parts. The 19.685-inch square pallet format allows for flexible workholding configurations while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for space-constrained manufacturing environments. The horizontal spindle orientation enables gravity-assisted chip evacuation and superior surface finish characteristics compared to vertical machines. Construction emphasizes rigidity through precision linear guides and roller bearings on all axes, ensuring dimensional accuracy and repeatability throughout the machine's operational life. This configuration makes the SH-5000(P) particularly well-suited for small to medium-sized production runs requiring multi-face machining in a single setup, combining reliability with cost-effectiveness for job shops and contract manufacturers.
