Turn-mill centers
More flexible production for smaller batch sizes
Index presented its latest machine developments at the EMO trade fair stand.
The company presented new turn-mill centers that can handle both technologies almost equally well. Following the market launch of the G220, G420 and G520 models, Index has now introduced the medium-sized Index G320. It offers a maximum turning length of 1,400 millimetres and performance data adapted to the size of its larger siblings.
The new version of the ABC CNC automatic lathe is also geared towards market requirements, which expect smaller quantities and more complex batch sizes. Flexibility is ensured by the upper tool turret, which now has Y-axis functionality and can be equipped with multiple holders. Another highlight is the Index MS24-6 multi-spindle automatic lathe. The successor to the MS22-6 multi-spindle lathe is slightly larger in maximum bar diameter, but more compact in design and equipped with numerous features.
