Enhanced Tsugami SS327-III-5AX 32mm, B-Axis, Chucker-Convertible Swiss CNC Lathe 

Tsugami/Rem Sales’ enhanced Tsugami SS327-III-5AX, 32mm, B-axis, chucker-convertible Swiss-type lathe has a servo-driven, modular B-axis that allows for the cutting of complex parts, complete in a single setup, while applying the capability for through-hole thread whirling or high-speed spindles for small surfacing end mills. The B-axis contains live tools (four front, two rear) which can machine in coordination with the C-axis, delivering the ability to cut precise angles and sculpted contours. The B-axis functionality transforms this Swiss-type lathe into a multitasking turning center that can drill, tap and end mill at any angle.

The company says the modular tool zone makes it easy to change cartridge-type live cross and face tools on the B-axis and the sub side, thereby decreasing changeover time. The ability to make multiple angle cuts by the same tool also decreases the total number of tools required. The machine also includes larger linear guides, increased ribs in the solid base casting, a 4GB data server, thermal displacement compensation sensors throughout and a three-toggle clamping system.
