Mill-Turn Machines
A mill-turn machine combines all the benefits of a traditional turning machine and a milling center into one highly functional piece of equipment. These solutions are ideal for machine shops that produce complex parts requiring multiple setups. While many traditional machines are limited to one function, milling and turning centers can perform various tasks more efficiently and accurately.
Although mill-turn machines may sound like a new technology to some, Trevisan Machine Tool has designed and built horizontal milling centers with U-axis facing heads for years. Keeping the workpiece stationary and programming the facing heads to move precisely around the part enables machine shops to produce more products than conventional equipment, from valves and fluid ends to pump and axle housings.
Turning and Milling Centers From Trevisan Machine Tool
At Trevisan Machine Tool, we separate ourselves from other CNC turning machine manufacturers by offering dual-spindle CNC machine centers with various turning diameters and several facing head sizes to meet your operation’s unique machining requirements. Our equipment lineup features compact solutions perfect for machining small diameters up to 350 millimeters to heavy-duty dual-column centers with turning capacities up to 3000 millimeters.
These milling centers are a practical and effective solution for machining operations looking for a milling machine alternative with fewer setups. Our equipment’s functions range from milling and turning to contouring, boring, tapping and drilling.
Benefits of Milling and Turning Machines
One of the most significant advantages of horizontal milling is chip disposal. Conventional milling machines typically produce long chips that can affect product quality, especially when the chips melt on a part’s surface. Trevisan Machine Tool’s milling centers generate a shorter chip that falls away from the workpiece.
Other primary benefits include:
- Enhanced versatility: Centers with milling and turning capabilities can produce more complex parts without requiring multiple machine cycles or setups. This advantage unlocks a new realm of possibilities that conventional lathes cannot offer, allowing machining operations to accept higher-precision jobs they would typically turn away.
- Improved efficiency: Besides minimizing the required setups, horizontal milling machines from Trevisan can cut faster and deeper. Fewer setups and faster production speeds help eliminate bottlenecks in scheduling and open the door for increased capacity.
- Higher precision: Our milling centers minimize the risk of human error by producing accurate CNC-controlled cuts with tight tolerances. The contour heads help deliver smooth, flat finishes with increased accuracy over conventional milling equipment.
- Durability: Trevisan Machine Tool builds horizontal milling centers that last. Our heavy-duty models can handle heavier and larger workpieces without risking equipment damage.
