LT2000 EX with Gantry Loader OGL5
Highly efficient, repeated machining of complex-shaped parts on 3 turrets. Long-run continuous operation is also possible with auto bar feeder and unloading systems.

Achieve ideal balance for 1-2 processes

Achieve ideal balance for 1-2 processes

Highly efficient machining with spindles with same capacity on left and right

Left and right spindles equipped with high accuracy integral motor/spindles make part transfer possible during spindle operation with synchronized C axis control.

Note: The chuck/cylinder used may limit machinable bar diameters.

Turrets with the same upper and lower capacity enable full process-intensive machining

V16 turrets are used on both top and bottom to handle complex shape, multi-process, high mix production. Setup change time can be shortened with permanent tool sets.
