HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTERS
Horizontal milling machines set the standard for speed, accuracy and precision in large production runs. These machines feature spindles in a horizontal position, allowing for deeper and heavier cuts on a workpiece. Horizontal U-axis machines work well for oversized components because they have larger tables, allowing you to perform turning operations without needing to balance parts in a lathe’s chuck.
The horizontal setup allows chips to fall away safely and efficiently, helping to achieve a smooth, high-quality finish. The horizontal machining concept surrounds keeping a workpiece stationary while the machine’s tools perform complex computer numerical control (CNC) operations without changing fixtures. More importantly, horizontal mills offer variable speeds and the ability to work with an extensive cutting tool range.
At Trevisan Machine Tool, we offer a lineup of horizontal CNC machines for metal cutting to accommodate a comprehensive range of machining applications.
CNC HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER USES AND APPLICATIONS
The dual-spindle design allows our horizontal milling machines to perform turning and milling operations in a single setup. Because of the horizontal configuration and multiple spindles, our equipment can machine more parts with higher-quality surfaces than most conventional production equipment. One of the most significant benefits of these machines is that they can turn components without rotating the actual workpiece, enabling faster production times while creating a much safer work environment.
Our Horizontal CNC Machining Centers can perform various production functions on the same machine, including:
- Contouring
- Turning
- Boring
- Milling
- Facing
- Back-facing
- Tapping
- Drilling
