'Super precise' air spindles maintain high speeds and torque under load - with no gears or lubrication - cutting cycle time and downtime, so there are no geared motors that burn up under load.

Air Turbine Spindles new super precise 600 Spindle Series maintain high speeds and torque under load - with no gears or lubrication - cutting cycle time and downtime.

No more free speeds that drop right off or geared motors that burn up under load.

In a unique innovation, 600 series spindles can select between centre and side air inlets in one unit (patent pending).

The selectable air feed connectors enable the user to switch between V flange or side air feed connecting options in one unit.

This provides exceptional versatility whether mounting in a V Flange for CNC use or in a vertical mill.

The 600 series made in the USA are priced from GBP 1208.

For continuous operation and durability under load, the standard ceramic bearings and a rigid stainless steel housing with integrated 3/4in shank make Air Turbine Spindles 600 Series durable and accurate with a total indicated run-out of 0.0002in concentricity.

The patented direct drive turbine motor delivers governed constant high speed and torque from 25,000 to 90,000 rev/min.

No lubrication is required, eliminating lubrication costs and oil mist contamination.

Governed high speed cutting action improves cutting action and finished surface quality.

Faster program cycles result in lower production costs and high speed cutting improves end mill performance and life.
