Featured Product - INDEX

INDEX will exhibit the North American debut of its C200 FANUC at IMTS 2024, a cost-effective variant of its production machining center. The company will also showcase the INDEX iXperience, its portfolio of value-added services providing manufacturers with an optimized solution, from acquisition and installation of a single machine to development and delivery of a turnkey production system.

The C200 FANUC merges the design and performance of INDEX’s successful production turning center with a FANUC control. Twin spindles achieve rapid material removal while the patented SingleSlide guide system offers a dynamic response by providing two degrees of movement in one plane. The machine’s inclusion of a third turret enables productivity gains, as it can quickly move between spindles for high flexibility and minimized cycle time.

With eight motorized spindles, the MS40-8 CNC multi-spindle allows for shortened cycle times on complex and simple parts. The machine is available with dual synchronized spindles and can be operated in a double four-spindle mode to produce two complete parts with every full rotation of the spindle drum. The machine can be configured with up to 18 CNC slides, as well as an additional Y-axis.

The machine’s motorized spindles are fluid-cooled and can operate independently of the other seven, allowing each to apply cutting data optimized to the process being performed.

Able to quickly switch between sliding- and fixed-headstock operation, the TNL20 provides a powerful, flexible solution for shops producing parts suited to Swiss-type machining. With a rigid, vibration-damping bed, the TNL20 maintains accuracy while allowing up to four tools to be put in the cut simultaneously. With two turrets and the use of double and triple holders, the machine can accommodate up to 58 tools to tackle a range of small, complex parts.

Designed to fully machine even the most complex parts in a single setup, the G220 turn mill combines powerful twin spindles, two turrets, robust 5-axis milling capabilities, and a capacity to hold up to 169 tools. The machine offers high dynamics and generously dimensioned linear guides in the X and Z axes, allowing it to achieve optimal cycle times for parts with numerous, varied features and specifications requiring tight tolerances.
