TSUGAMI/ REM SALES BH20 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TSUGAMI/REM SALES BH20 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-precision CNC turning center designed for complex small-part production with exceptional flexibility and accuracy. It features a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 0.790" and turning length up to 6.690", operating at up to 12,000 RPM with a 4.9 HP motor. The machine incorporates a sub spindle matched in capability, also running at 12,000 RPM and 4.9 HP, enabling simultaneous dual-side machining for enhanced productivity. The primary tool carrier is a 12-station turret supporting 12 turning tools and up to 4 rotary tools with 1.9 HP and speeds up to 8,000 RPM. Additionally, a second front post tool carrier offers up to 4 turning and 2 rotary tools, rated at 1.3 HP and 8,000 RPM. The machine supports up to 3 simultaneous cutting tools, providing multitasking capabilities to reduce cycle times. With 9 CNC controlled axes (expandable to 10), the BH20 provides rapid traverses of 471 inches per minute on the X, Y, and Z axes, allowing fast, precise positioning and complex geometries. The horizontal machining center integrates traditional Swiss-style gang tooling with turret flexibility, allowing it to execute turning, drilling, milling, and tapping operations in a single setup. This combination, along with a direct-drive rotary guide bushing to enhance spindle performance and accuracy, makes the BH20 ideal for high-precision machining of small and complex components in industries like aerospace and automotive.
