The Super NTY3 multitasking turning center from Nakamura-Tome offers 100% stock-on turning and machining that virtually eliminates lost productivity due to tool changes. With three turrets, each with a Y axis, it allows one-pass complete turning/machining/finishing to reduce part cycle times. Its three 6,000rpm milling motors can simultaneously machine two flat surfaces (top and bottom) on one spindle and one surface on the other. Each turret holds 12 driven or 24 stationary tools, for a maximum of 72 tool stations. Accelerating Y axes have travels of 2.44" (62mm).
Super NTY3 features the FANUC 31iA CNC control with nanometer resolution for smooth movement and improved accuracy. Overload detection, NT Nurse programming/monitoring software, and NT Work Navigator (torquetype) software are also standard.
