T8MSY 6 Axis Turning

The Tornado T8MSY 6 Axis CNC Lathe is the ultimate turning center. The addition of with Y-axis machining, allows the operator to take full advantage of the machine’s milling capability by providing ‘off center line’ machining controlled by the state-of-the-art G.E. Fanuc 18i TB control. The T8MSY has all the machine design features of the 2, 3 & 5 axis models.

Features

  • The T8MSY turning center offers Y-axis machining, allowing you to take full advantage of the machines milling capability by providing ‘off center line’ ±1.57" (±40mm) milling for the accurate machining of keyways, flat and contoured surfaces

  • The sub spindle is driven by a powerful 10 hp (7.5kW) drive motor

  • Tornado T8MSY offer milling power for both radial and axial milling, drilling, boring and tapping operations on either spindle

  • High speed turning, up to 5000 rpm

  • Sub-spindle has 6.7" (170mm) chuck and 1.69" (43mm) collet capacity

  • Tornado ‘MSY’ is fitted with a linear scale on the X axis to maintain high accuracy even during ‘off center’ operations

  • Twelve station high speed bi-directional turret with 12 power stations

  • B & C axis positioning increment of 0.001° is fully programmable

  • Quick changeover and set-up with VDI 30 tooling

  • Optional CAM system software package, designed to run on virtually any PC, developed for more complex 5 axis programming

  • Available in Chucker, Barfeed and Unmanned ‘Lights-Out’ models

  • Ethernet Link allows remote access to the CNC control for part program transfer, supervisory control, data acquisition, diagnostic and maintenance functions.
