Dynamic multi-spindle lathe
Shortest possible changeovers, ultra-high dynamics and lowest secondary times are the basis of minimal cost per part.

MS16 in focus
Configuration as a single synchronized machine
• Synchronized spindle in position 6.1
• Cutoff and rear end machining slide in position 6.2
• Grooving or drilling slide
1x selectable per spindle position (1 to 5)
• Extension version with separate cutoff slide 6.0 and pure
rear end machining slide 6.2
• Cross slide 1x per spindle position (1 to 5 selectable)
Configuration as a double synchronized machine
• Synchronized spindle in position 5.1/ 6.1
• Cutoff and rear end machining slide in position 5.2/ 6.2
• Grooving or drilling slide
1x selecabe per spindle position (1 to 4 selectable)
• Extension version with separate cutoff slide 5.0 / 6.0 pure
rear end machining 5.2/ 6.2
• Cross slide 1x per spindle position (1 bis 4)
The machine design
With dynamic and diverse machining capabilities at low unit costs
-
A maximum of 12 tool carriers with 1 or 2 travel axes
-
Fast synchronous spindle for rear end machining
-
Several tools per cross-slide possible
-
Variable use of tool carriers, internal-external, stationary or live
-
C-axis machining possible in every spindle position
-
Polygon turning and other machining options
Extended version MS16C Plus
– Slide 6.0 as a pure cutoff slide
– Slide 6.2 as a pure rear machining slide
– Optional drilling slide instead of grooving slide in all positions possible
– Bar stop in position 6 in parallel to rear end machining unit or workpiece ejector possible (cycle time-saver!)
– Bar diameter: 22 mm
Diverse machining technologies
Polygonal turning
Polygonal turning is possible in longitudinal and grooving processes, even in high-alloy materials
Example: Hexagonal turning i=2:1, referring to the speed ratio of the cutter head to the workpiece
Milling
Milling with live tool, also in conjunction with C-axis mode (Transmit).
Elliptical deburring
Uniform deburring (even chip removal) of cross-drill holes based on interpolation of the C-axis, X-axis, and Z-axis with live tool.
