Turning Center Adds Lower Turret for Versatility
PUMA SMX super multi-tasking turning centers are now available with a lower turret for enhanced versatility and productivity. The turret will be available on both the 10-in. chuck (PUMA SMX2600ST) and 12-in. chuck (PUMA SMX3100ST) models.
The PUMA SMX Series is a twin-spindle, multi-tasking turning center built for completing complex parts in a single setup. Both turning spindles feature 0.0001-deg. resolution on the C-axis for high precision contouring, and the 12,000 RPM dedicated milling spindle features 0.0001-deg. resolution contouring B-axis as well. With a Y-axis stroke of 11.8 in. (300mm) and an orthogonal X/Y structure, part accuracy and machine accessibility are both improved.
The addition of a lower turret allows operators to be even more productive on a single CNC machine. A twelve-station static tool turret is standard on SMX ST models, and a 5,000 RPM milling turret is available as an option. The turret is also designed to accommodate steady rests, follow rests, tailstock centers and two-jaw vises.
