TSUGAMI/ REM SALES BC18/25 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TSUGAMI REM SALES BC18/25 Horizontal Machining Center is a precision CNC lathe designed for complex turning operations with dual spindles. It features a main spindle capable of 12,000 RPM and 5 HP power, accommodating a maximum turning diameter of 1.000" and a length of 1.770" on bar stock up to 0.700" in diameter. The sub spindle runs at the same 12,000 RPM speed with 2 HP power, supporting up to 0.710" diameter and 1.770" length parts. The machine employs two gang slides as primary and secondary tool carriers: the primary tool carrier supports up to 9 turning tools and 3 rotary tools, each rotary tool powered by 0.5 HP, while the secondary carrier supports up to 6 turning tools. With 3 controlled axes, it offers rapid traverse rates of 471 inches per minute on X, Y, and Z axes, allowing fast positioning and efficient cycle times. The machine supports simultaneous use of 2 cutting tools, enhancing multi-tasking capabilities and reducing cycle times. The design integrates spindle indexing with 1.0° increments for both main spindles and sub spindle, allowing precise angular positioning during machining. Ideal for small to medium precision turned parts, this machining center balances high spindle speeds, versatile tooling, and rapid axis movement to support advanced turning applications with fine finishing and high throughput. Its configuration is well-suited for industries requiring tight tolerances and multi-tool machining in a compact horizontal turning lathe platform.
