ZPS-CNC TCH 500 DOUBLE HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The ZPS-CNC TCH 500 is a dual-turret horizontal machining center engineered for complex multi-axis turning and milling operations. The machine features a robust main spindle capable of rotating workpieces up to 21.45 inches in diameter with a maximum turning length of 43.37 inches, accommodating bar stock up to 3.14 inches in diameter through a 10-inch chuck. The main spindle delivers 55 horsepower at 3,200 RPM, providing substantial cutting torque for demanding applications. The machine is equipped with five axes of simultaneous motion, enabling intricate contouring and compound geometries. Dual independent turrets each accommodate up to 12 turning and 12 rotary tools, allowing simultaneous two-tool cutting operations to minimize cycle times. The rotary tool turret operates at 4,000 RPM with 7.8 horsepower for secondary milling operations. The XY and Z axes each provide 14.96 inches of travel with identical rapid traverse rates of 982 inches per minute and maximum feed rates of 982 ipm, ensuring consistent acceleration and smooth motion across all linear axes. This configuration allows for high-speed positioning and efficient chip evacuation. The combination of dual turrets, five-axis capability, and coordinated spindle operation makes the TCH 500 suitable for aerospace, automotive, and precision component manufacturing requiring integrated turning and milling in a single setup, significantly reducing part handling and setup time.
