TURRET CHL-21 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TURRET CHL-21 is a precision horizontal machining center engineered for high-performance turning operations. It features a robust 20 HP main spindle capable of handling workpieces up to 12.600" in diameter with a maximum turning length of 60.000", accommodating extended components with ease. The 10.000" chuck diameter provides secure workholding while the 21.000" maximum swing clearance enables machining of larger diameter parts. With dual 20 HP spindle capacity, the machine delivers consistent power for demanding cutting applications across various materials. The two-axis CNC configuration provides simultaneous X and Z-axis motion, enabling coordinated tool paths for efficient part production. The slide-type primary tool carrier positions cutting tools with precision while the single simultaneous cutting tool setup optimizes tooling efficiency and reduces cycle times. Travel specifications include 12.600" on the X-axis and 60.000" on the Z-axis, delivering ample working envelope for complex geometries. This turret design facilitates rapid tool indexing and changeover, making it suitable for both production runs and job-shop applications. The horizontal spindle orientation ensures superior chip evacuation and allows for automatic pallet changers, enhancing automation potential. The CHL-21 combines rigid construction with precise positioning capabilities, making it ideal for precision machining of shafts, sleeves, and similar cylindrical components in automotive, aerospace, and industrial manufacturing sectors.
