INDEX CNC multi-spindle automatic lathe: high flexibility, shorter setups and reduced cycle times With the INDEX MS32-6 multi-spindle automatic lathe, The new INDEX quick-clamping system, patented which can be configured according to individual needs, W-serration and ergonomic front-opening work area INDEX offers a machine concept that meets all require- minimize setup times. ments and the highest demands. Maximum dynamic response and minimum secondary processes and downtime further reduce cost per part. Six main spindles, up to two swiveling synchronized spindles and up to twelve tool...

Flexible, highly productive and quick to set up -the machine concept of the INDEX MS32-6 • Highly dynamic cross slide with sliding guide (X axis) • Non-wearing Z axis, thanks to quills with hydrostatic support • Grooving and boring slide for maximum cutting performance with minimum machining time • Freely accessible work area, making setup particularly easy • Quick tool setup with the INDEX quick clamping system and its W-serration • Chuck part machining with loading and unloading by linear or robot handling units • Extremely fast swiveling synchronous spindles with C axis - the swivel arm...

Our hallmark: the spindle drum The compact spindle drum ensures maximum precision in each and every position through the use of a Hirth coupling. The core is composed of six 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 even during tool...

Precise, fast, and flexible Versatility is a strength of the INDEX MS32-6. Whether complex parts or varied processes are involved almost anything is possible • A maximum of 12 tool carriers with 1 or 2 travel axes • Y axes (optional) • 1 or 2 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 polygon turning for extended fields of application Rear-end machining with swiveling synchronous spindle • Up to 6 tools, 2 of which are live • Fast swiveling motion and...

The tool holders Changing tool holders The tool slides of the INDEX MS32-6 are equipped with the newly developed INDEX quick-clamping device. • Tool holders can now be changed twice as quickly as with conventional systems. • Previous tool holders with dovetail mounting can still be used. The INDEX W-serration principle The patented INDEX W-serration ensures high repeat accuracy for the cross slides when tools are changed: • Short setup/changeover times • Extended life of cutting inserts • Suitable for stationary and live tools • Measuring on an external presetting unit is possible Increased...

Simply more possibilities The work area – virtually limitless machining capabilities for each 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. Machining examples: 5. External live – internal turning (sequential) Machining operations are therefore determined only by the tool holder. The result is that all production steps in all spindle positions can be freely defined. Another advantage: They have free chip flow. 1. External turning – internal turning 6. External live – external turning...

Milling Milling with a live tool in the following variants: • Side milling nutter in conjunction with C-axis operation (transmit function) • End milling cutter in conjunction with Y-axis operation • Plunge milling (see diagram) Gear cutting, gear hobbing • Coupled with electronic precision • Maximum stability • Gears in correct position relative to other surfaces or shaped elements • Any angular offset can be programmed • Greater tool service life as a result of shifting with Y axis Elliptical deburring of cross-drilled holes Uniform deburring (even chip removal) of cross-drilled holes...

Workpiece handling systems Stationary workpiece removal device with integral parts conveyor The workpieces fall onto the internal conveyor belt through a chute and are then deflected 90° by a second chute to reach an external conveyor belt Position-aligned workpiece removal with integral parts conveyor The workpieces are removed from position 6 or positions 6 and 5 by the synchronous spindle and are aligned in position to the internal conveyor belt for parts that are not to be ejected. Position-aligned workpiece removal with intermediate gripper and linear shuttle Very rapid, damage-free,...
