SMX2600ST multi-task milling/turning centers are designed for heavy and interrupted cutting, long-term high accuracy and superior surface finishes. High speed tool change with fast rapid traverse rates minimize non-cutting time. C-axis contouring, Y-axis offcenter and B-axis any-angle milling/drilling allow for single set-up completion of highly complex work pieces. Same-size integral motors on both left and right spindles provide improved performance and flexibility. Multi-tasking capabilities increase productivity and provide for just-in-time production requirements by reducing lead time, changeover time, set-up time, and time between operations.
