Fixed Headstock Chucker Configuration Available

A fixed headstock chucker configuration of Precision Tsugami Corp.'s SS32 Super Swiss Turn is now available. A fixed headstock configuration offers distinct advantages for certain applications. It can be an ideal solution for shorter parts and does not require the use of ground bar stock. A typical Swiss machine will produce a bar remnant equal to the headstock stroke of the machine.

In a chucker configuration, the headstock is pushed forward into the tool zone, substantially reducing the remnant. Utilizing the SS32L, manufacturers are able to produce more parts from each bar, reducing expensive waste and increasing productivity.

Complex parts can be produced complete from bar stock on the SS32L.

Live face and cross tools for main and sub-spindle efficiently handle complex geometries on both sides of the part, resulting in more balanced machining. An optional adjustable angle-driven face attachment can be used for angled drilling, milling and thread whirling. With 320mm (12.6") of headstock stroke, the SS32L easily machines long parts.

Like its predecessors, the SS20 and SS32, the SS32L also offers users a unique modular tool zone, increased capability over previous gang type models, and a roomier tool zone for easier setup. The SS-32L's standard main spindle configuration includes seven turning tools, five cross rotary tools and five ID tools, while the standard sub spindle setup includes four ID stations, two face drills and two cross rotary tools. Quick changes to the configuration of main and subspindle cross rotary, ID and turning tools can be made.
