VICTOR 2160 DCL HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The VICTOR 2160 DCL is a horizontal machining center engineered for precision turning and milling operations on large cylindrical workpieces. The machine features a primary spindle capable of rotating workpieces up to 11.800" in diameter with a maximum turning length of 60.000", accommodating an 8.000" chuck diameter and a maximum swing of 20.900". The spindle operates at 1,600 RPM with 15 HP output, delivering consistent torque for heavy-duty machining tasks. The machine utilizes a slide-type primary tool carrier with single simultaneous cutting tool capacity, ideal for sequential turning and milling operations. With two axes of controlled motion, the X-axis provides 11.800" of travel at 200 ipm cutting feed and rapid traverse rates, while the Z-axis delivers 55.700" of travel at matching 200 ipm speeds, enabling efficient material removal along the workpiece length. A secondary spindle also rated at 1,600 RPM with 15 HP provides enhanced flexibility for complex part geometries and multi-axis operations. The combination of substantial workpiece capacity, adequate spindle speed for ferrous materials, and coordinated linear axes positions this machine for production runs requiring precision bore and external turning operations. The straightforward two-axis configuration minimizes programming complexity while maintaining rigid component support for consistent tolerances throughout extended production cycles.
