WEILER DZ 42 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The WEILER DZ 42 is a CNC horizontal turning center designed for precision machining operations on round bar stock and chucked workpieces. The machine features a single main spindle capable of achieving a maximum turning diameter of 18.500 inches with a maximum turning length of 11.810 inches. The 19.000-inch chuck diameter accommodates workpieces up to 1.650 inches in bar diameter capacity. Operating at 6,000 RPM with 25 horsepower, the spindle delivers consistent performance for both roughing and finishing operations. The machine utilizes a turret-style tool carrier with capability for single simultaneous cutting tool operation, providing flexibility in tool selection and workpiece machining strategies. Travel ranges include 7.870 inches in the X-axis and 11.810 inches in the Z-axis, enabling comprehensive part geometry machining. The DZ 42 supports multiple axis configurations, with standard two-axis operation expandable to three-axis capability for enhanced machining complexity. Its design facilitates efficient chip evacuation and coolant management for extended tool life. The machine's robust construction and programmable spindle positioning make it suitable for bar feeding and high-volume production runs. Available with Siemens or Sinumerik CNC controls, the DZ 42 delivers repeatability and precision suitable for automotive, medical, and general industrial component manufacturing applications.
