CNC turning centre has extremely stiff Y-axis

An extremely stiff Y-axis has been integrated into a turning centre's structure and stands on an extremely wide-set guide rails to ensure top precision when performing difficult cutting tasks.

New customers are understanding the Emco's new high-performance turning centre. Because just like its larger sisters Maxxturn 65, 95 and 110, the Maxxturn 45 - with a 45mm bar capacity - is also a perfect solution for low-cost complete machining off-the-shelf. * Extremely stiff Y-axis - fitted with a counter spindle, driven tools, a high-precision C-axis and very fast rapid-motion speeds, the Maxxturn 45 offers everything the customer needs to manufacture complex turned and milled parts, not only in high quality, but also cost effectively.

The special highlight of the new Maxxturn 45 is the Y-axis.

It has been integrated into the machine structure and stands on an extremely wide-set guide rails.

This ensures extreme stiffness and top precision, even when performing difficult cutting tasks.

In addition, the Maxxturn 45 has a Y axis with a large travel, which also increases the number of machining options when turning and milling.

The Maxxturn 45 is available with either a Siemens or Fanuc controls - and Shopturn or Manual Guide are standard equipment.

* Tailored automation - as with all Emco machines, there are perfectly customised automation fittings for the Maxxturn 45 as well.

There is a swing loader for automatic loading and unloading.

For bar work there are three different bar loaders on offer: a classical 3m bar loader, the Emco short-bar loader LM800 for limited floor space and the Compact Load E45.
