About this machine
This compact 5-axis CNC turning center is designed for high productivity and precision in machining small-sized components. It features powerful built-in motors for both the main and sub-spindles, with spindle speeds of up to 10,000 rpm.
The machine supports 21 tools, including 4 rotary tools, allowing for complex operations in a single setup. Ideal for high-volume manufacturing, it delivers consistent accuracy and efficient performance for small part machining.
Is a sliding head automat right for your part?
Swiss-type sliding head lathes and multi-spindle bar automats for long, slender and high-volume small parts.
Sliding head (Swiss-type) machines support the bar in a guide bush close to the tool, so long, slender parts stay accurate. Multi-spindle automats suit very high volumes of simple parts.
Send your part drawing, material and monthly quantity, and we will confirm whether this machine fits – or suggest one that fits better.
Questions buyers ask
What is the lead time for this machine?
New machines are built to order. We confirm the lead time and the exact configuration – control, spindle, tool changer and options – with your quote.
What parts suit a sliding head automat?
Small, long and slender parts from bar – pins, shafts, connectors, medical and electronic parts – usually up to about 20–32 mm diameter.
Cam automat or CNC sliding head?
Cam automats are economical for very long runs of one part. CNC sliding head machines change over faster and handle more complex parts.
Do sliding head machines need a bar feeder?
Yes, a bar feeder or loader is normally part of the package for continuous production.
Is installation and training included?
Installation, commissioning and operator training are listed in the quote, so you know exactly what is included.
