MS22-8 CNC multi-spindle automatic lathe for high-productivity manufacturing

INDEX CNC multi-spindle automatic lathe More productive with 8 spindles! With the totally configurable INDEX MS22-8, we offer configured in XYZ, enable high-productivity manufacturing. a machine concept that meets all requirements and the All aspects of the INDEX MS22-8 were developed using most stringent demands. state-of-the-art manufacturing technologies. Generously dimensioned and freely accessible, the work Eight main spindles, up to two swiveling synchronous area minimizes setup cost, especially for changeovers. spindles, and up to sixteen tool carriers, which can be Unhindered chip fall...

Designed to meet precise user requirements − the concept behind the INDEX MS22-8 Machine design • Freely accessible work area, making setup particularly easy • Highly dynamic slide with sliding guide (X axis) • Non-wearing Z axis, due to quills with hydrostatic support • Front-opening machine for bar machining • Chuck part machining with robot loading and unloading • Directed part discharge through linear handling • Extremely fast swiveling synchronous spindles with C axis • Swing arm is locked in machining position by three-piece Hirth coupling ensuring maximum rigidity • Maximum of 6 tools...

Our hallmark - the spindle drum The compact spindle drum ensures maximum precision in each position through the use of a three-piece Hirth coupling. The core is composed of eight fluid-cooled motorized spindles integrated in the spindle drum. An infinitely variable speed range, high tractive force, compact design, low maintenance, and the latest synchronous drive technology - these are the criteria that make an INDEX CNC multi-spindle automatic lathe stand out. Independent speeds During machining, it is always possible to program the optimum speed, which can still be varied during cutting, for...

Precise, fast, and flexible Versatility is a strength of the INDEX MS22-8. Whether complex parts or different processes are involved - almost anything is possible • A maximum of 16 tool carriers with 1 or 2 travel axes • Y axis (optional) • 1 or 2 swiveling synchronous spindles • Variable use of tool carriers for internal and external machining • Use of several tools per tool carrier possible • Cross machining with live tools • C axis and multi-edge turning for extended use options Even more possibilities for rear-end machining with a swiveling synchronous spindle • Up to 6 tools, 3 of which...

Simply more possibilities The work area – virtually limitless machining Machining examples 1. xternal turning – E internal turning spindle position The tool carrier arrangement in the work area, without longitudinal sliding block, allows more than one tool to be used on each spindle. Available machining operations 2. xternal turning – E external turning are therefore limited only by the tool holder. As a result, you can specify all production steps in all spindle positions. Another advantage: They have free chip fall. 3. External live – internal live Performance, as we understand it Maximum productivity...

Gear cutting, hobbing • Coupled with electronic precision • Provides maximum stability • Gears in correct position relative to other surfaces or shaped elements • Any angular offset can be programmed • Greater tool service life due to shifting with Y axis Milling Milling with live tooling in the following variants • Disk milling cutter in conjunction with C axis operation (transmit function) • End milling cutter in conjunction with Y axis operation • Plunge milling (graphic) Elliptical deburring of cross-drilled holes Uniform deburring (even chip removal) of cross-drilled holes based on interpolation...

Parts feed and discharge by 6-axis robot via the swivel disk interface to the external handling system The workpiece handling system for chuck parts and bar segments can be used for 8-spindle machining with and without synchronous spindle, as well as for double 4-spindle machining. A 4x OP10 (first side) and 4x OP20 (second side) variant, with external turning station, is also available. Linear shuttle with intermediate gripper for directed parts discharge from spindle position 8 Directed parts discharge from synchronous spindle in position 8, onto the internal conveyor belt

Directed parts discharge from synchronous spindle onto the internal conveyor belt Axially-directed discharge via gripper transfers parts from the synchronous spindles in positions 7 and 8 to the internal conveyor belt for parts that may not be ejected. Directional workpiece removal by synchronous spindle and linear shuttle Damage-free and position-oriented delivery of components is provided from the synchronous spindle in position 8, or positions 7 and 8, to the external handling system at the front of the machine. All 3 axes of the machine-integrated handling system are NC-controlled.
