TRAUB TNL 12K HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TRAUB TNL 12K is a high-precision horizontal sliding-headstock CNC lathe designed for demanding Swiss-type machining applications. It features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 0.630" and a maximum bar diameter of 0.510", supporting a turning length up to 1.970". Both the main and sub spindles operate at speeds up to 12,000 RPM, each delivering 5.40 HP for robust performance and precise indexing. The machine is equipped with two tool turrets: the primary turret supports up to 12 turning tools and 12 rotary tools, while the secondary turret accommodates 6 turning and 6 rotary tools, with each rotary tool capable of 8,000 RPM and 2.00 HP. This configuration enables up to four simultaneous cutting tools for high-efficiency production. The TNL 12K offers 3 standard axes, with options for up to 7 axes, providing flexibility for complex part geometries. Axis travels include X: 1.380", Y: 1.500", and Z: 1.970", all with rapid traverse rates of 590 ipm for fast cycle times. The sub-spindle matches the main spindle’s capabilities, supporting seamless part transfer and secondary operations. With its compact footprint, advanced control system, and high dynamic response, the TRAUB TNL 12K delivers outstanding accuracy, productivity, and versatility for precision machining in medical, aerospace, and micro-engineering sectors.
