Machine highlights

Your benefits

  • Highly-dynamic slides with sliding guide (X-axis)

  • Non-wearing Z-axis due to quills with hydrostatic support

  • Chuck part machining with loading and unloading by robots

  • Up to 16 tool holders with 1 or 2 axes and optional Y-axis can be used variably

  • Versatility is the strong point of the MS22C-8. Whether complex parts or different processes are involved – anything is possible

  • More options for rear end machining with hydraulically locked and extremely fast swiveling synchronous spindle

  • Already included: the operating systemXpanel i4.0 readywith 18.5” touch screen and INDEXC200-4D based on Siemens S840D sl

The expansion options

Double four-spindle machine – a profitable upgrade option

  • Additional part production time reduction due to simultaneous manufacturing of 2 workpieces

  • 14 tool carriers with 1 or 2 axes (optionally also Y-axis)

  • 2 swiveling synchronous spindles

  • 2 rear slides (option) with 3 tools each, of which up to 2 are live

Your advantage:

Two identical or two different workpieces can be machined in parallel.
Result: fast cycle times.


Eight-spindle machining with simultaneous rear end machining

  • Front end machining with up to 15 X/Z tool carriers (optional Y-axis)

  • Cutoff end machining at the same time

  • 1 swiveling synchronous spindle

  • 1 rear slide

  • Versatile machining options

  • Machining of highly complex workpieces possible

Your advantage:

Reduced cycle time with time-determining rear end machining
