YAMA SEIKI GOODWAY SD-16 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The YAMA SEIKI GOODWAY SD-16 is a CNC Swiss-type turning center featuring a Fanuc 0i-TD control system, designed for precision machining of small components up to 0.630" diameter. This horizontal machine incorporates a single main spindle capable of 10,000 RPM with 5 HP output and an 8,000 RPM sub-spindle delivering 2.4 HP, enabling simultaneous dual-spindle operations for enhanced productivity. The machine accommodates a maximum turning length of 3.140" on the sub-spindle with a 0.090" index increment, supporting complex multi-axis workpiece manipulation. The tooling configuration includes six OD tools on the primary OD slide and four ID tools on the secondary ID slide, with capacity for two simultaneous cutting tools for advanced machining strategies. With four axes of control and 945 in/min rapids, the SD-16 delivers the rigid construction and precision typical of Yama Seiki Swiss machines, featuring C3 class hardened and precision-ground ball screws with pretension to minimize thermal distortion. Standard capabilities encompass on-center and off-center secondary mill/drill functions with full C-axis control, enabling simultaneous main and sub-spindle drilling, tapping, and side milling operations. The machine's super-rigid body construction and FANUC alpha i series spindle motors ensure peak machining performance and accuracy for demanding small-part production environments requiring high precision and repeatability.
