TSUGAMI/ REM SALES BH38 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TSUGAMI/REM SALES BH38 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance Swiss-type automatic lathe designed for precision machining of complex workpieces. It features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter and bar diameter of 1.500" and a maximum turning length of 9.840". The main spindle operates at up to 5,000 RPM with 15 HP, while the sub-spindle reaches 7,000 RPM with 7.3 HP, enabling efficient front and back machining operations. The machine is equipped with a primary 12-station turret supporting up to 12 turning tools and 4 rotary tools, each with up to 1.9 HP and 8,000 RPM. A secondary front tool post adds 4 turning and 2 rotary tool positions, with rotary tools rated at 1.3 HP and 8,000 RPM. The system allows up to 3 simultaneous cutting tools, enhancing productivity. Standard secondary milling and drilling functions are available on-center, off-center, and with both 'C' and 'Y' axes, providing versatile multi-axis machining capabilities. The machine supports up to 9 axes as standard, with options for up to 10 axes. Rapid traverse rates for X, Y, and Z axes are 707 ipm, ensuring fast tool movements and reduced cycle times. This configuration makes the BH38 ideal for high-precision, high-efficiency production of complex turned and milled components.
