Nexturn SA(XIII) 3 Channel & 3 Y-Axes Swiss Lathe Series

Nexturn SA(XIII) 3 Channel & 3 Y-Axes Swiss Lathe Series

The SA XIII series of Nexturn Swiss CNC lathes consists of three models with or without rotary synchronous guide bushings. The XIII series is equipped with an opposing gang tooling system holding a maximum of 14 live tools for high productivity when machining complex parts. Use of guide bushings permits turning of longer parts, while machines without guide bushings are ideal for processing short parts and cold drawn material.

The machines feature up to 11 axes and up to 29 total tools. Maximum bar diameter capacity of the main and sub spindles is 32mm – 45mm, depending on machine size. Maximum turning lengths are 120mm – 279mm.

Main spindles and sub spindles provide as much as 20 HP (15kW) at speeds as high as 8,000 RPM while offering full C-axis capability. The synchronous sub-spindle permits simultaneous front and backworking. Live tools provide 1.3 HP (1 kW) and 6,000 RPM. Rigid tapping is standard.

Excellent rigidity results from the use of FEA technology in machine structure design. The slant-bed Nexturn machines maximize ease of use with ergonomically arranged controls and fully opening covers and doors.
