horizontal spindle machining centers, cylindrical grinders, metalcutting machines

Wixom, MI--January 15, 2004-- What makes these machining centers and cylindrical grinders "serious" machines?

Very simply, the way they're built. Rugged, for serious metalcutting professionals who depend on top performance from their machines. That means grinders and machining centers designed from the castings up to run under incredible loads 24 hours a day, year-in and year-out, holding the same exacting precision for far longer than other machines.

Providing a range of horizontal spindle machining centers, from 40-taper machines in 1969 ipm feeds (achieved with unique hybrid roller boxways) to 50-taper production platforms with work areas of 65 x 55 x 45 inches. All are available with a variety of high-speed spindles, high-torque direct drive or geared head spindles, tool magazines, fourth or fifth axis tables, and a host of mechanical and control options.

Check out one of several, like the FA400. The FA400 Horizontal Machining Center. Equipped with a 14,000 rpm spindle (standard) and center chip conveyor. Smallest footprint in its class from Toyoda Grinding Machine Division:

The FA400 horizontal machining center offers remarkable speed and performance with the smallest footprint in its class. It’s fast, from the standard 14,000 rpm spindle to accelerated positioning speeds, tool changes and pallet indexes. The streamlined enclosure (a mere 6 ft wide) leaves you with 40% more floorspace.

Most importantly, it has all the features our larger machines are known for. With a robust, cast iron base and high-performance spindle (30hp), the FA400 can perform at top speeds every day, all day. Of course, you can still have all the "big machine" options you need. Like hydraulic fixturing, larger tool magazines, or automated components for unmanned operation.

So maybe it's only small by our standards. What's important is that it's built to Toyoda standards. Either way, it's high performance in a small package, with an economical price to boot.

Finite-element-analyzed structures with unsurpassed rigidity and heat-shedding characteristics to go as hard as you push without flinching. Far more than simply machines, these are elegantly engineered systems.
