Heavy duty bed-type CNC miller has high quality

Included in the series of new machines and innovative high-speed spindle and machining head options in a Spanish milling machine portfolio, is a heavy duty bed-type with a high quality build.
Included in the series of new machines and innovative high-speed spindle and machining head options just announced by Ward CNC for Soraluce's world-leading milling machine portfolio, the TA-20 bed-type mill will be making its UK public debut at MACH 2002. With X, Y and Z axes of 2000mm by 800mm by 800mm, the TA-20 has a feed range of 20mm/min to 10m/min and a speed range of 20 to 3000mm/min. It features Heidenhain TNC 410M CNC and digital drives, and the 21.5kW spindle produces 25 to 3,000 revs/min.

Feed range is quoted as 20mm/min to 10m/min and rapid traverse rates are 20m/min.

As expected of machines developed under the auspices of the Danobat Group's IDEKO research and development, this new machine combines high-quality build and technologically advanced features for unmatched heavy-duty milling performance.

Its characteristic build qualities of stability and rigidity are based on the heavy-duty cast iron construction.

In addition to Soraluce milling machines, Ward CNC is the exclusive UK agent for Union horizontal live spindle machining centres, Toshulin vertical boring, turning and milling machines, Kia CNC lathes, turning centres, and vertical and horizontal machining centres as well as Cetos CNC cylindrical grinders and Hankook Protec two-axis CNC lathes - representatives of which will also be on show at MACH 2002.
