WEILER PRAKTIKANT AC HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The WEILER Praktikant AC Horizontal Machining Center is a precision lathe designed for efficient turning operations, featuring a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 7.8 inches and a turning length capacity of 25.59 inches. It accommodates a 6.3-inch diameter chuck and offers a maximum swing of 12.6 inches, ensuring versatility for medium-sized workpieces. The spindle operates at speeds up to 3,000 RPM powered by a 5.4 HP motor, which is mirrored in a secondary spindle configuration, enhancing machining flexibility. The primary tool carrier is a slide type, supporting a single simultaneous cutting tool, optimized for precise, single-tool machining tasks. The machine operates on two axes, with an X-axis travel of 5.91 inches and a Z-axis travel matching the turning length at 25.59 inches, allowing for detailed and accurate part shaping along these coordinates. This combination of spindle power, travel ranges, and tool configuration makes the Praktikant AC suitable for diverse metalworking tasks requiring reliable and accurate horizontal turning capabilities. Its robust spindle and travel specifications cater to various machining demands in workshops or training environments focused on conventional precision lathe operations.
