Mill-turn centre has large Y-axis turret
A 25kW, eight-axis, opposed spindle, multi-tasking turning centre with an 8in chuck and 65mm bar capacity has two turrets, the upper one of which has a large Y-axis traverse.
The latest eight-axis, Hyundai-Kia SKT 200TTSY 'multiple tasking' centre is designed to carry out 'single hit', mill-turn cycles in an 8in chuck size carried on 25kW, built-in main and opposed spindles C Dugard show the Hyundai-Kia SKT 200TTSY at the UK's MACH 2008 machine tool exhibition

Travelling column VMC has dual-pallet indexing
Vertical machining centre with a travelling column design and integrated rotary dual-pallet indexing system provides higher levels of productivity and output and efficient workpiece loading/unloading.
Wide range of CNC machines will suit all tastes
High speed lathes, as well as vertical and horizontal machining centres, to suit all tastes, will be exhibited at Mach 2002 by C Dugard.
The machine also has a 65mm bar capacity and has the added flexibility of two 12-station driven tool turrets.
The upper turret, said Dugard, has an unusually large +60mm stroke for its Y-axis cross feed.
The Fanuc 18i-T controlled Hyundai-Kia machine has a maximum swing of 780mm diameter with a 390mm turning diameter capability on the upper 12 station turret and 300mm diameter on the lower turret.
The maximum turning length is 900mm and the machine specification also includes a 100mm diameter quill-type tailstock.
Rapid traverse rates are 24m/min on each of the five main axis strokes and 12m/min on Y-axis, which due to the design, requires only a single feed control setting to synchronise complex shape machining involving the actions of X-, Z-, C- and Y-axis, and Y-axis and X-axis for circular interpolation.
* Rigidity - built to high production standards, demanded by the automotive sector parentage of South Korea's largest machine tool company, the machine platform is based on a rigid cast structure.
The X-axis saddle is also a single structure to enable heavy duty cycles or light finishing cuts to be maintained to high orders of surface finish and tolerance.
The built-in spindles each have 5,000 rev/min top speeds, a 78mm through bore and full C-axis rotation.
Driven tool speeds are 4,000 rev/min and each turret has a station to station index time of just 0.2s.
Included in the specification is an Auto Q-Setter for automatic tool offset correction which takes under 40s to perform.
