The GANESH CYCLONE CY-25/32 is the 4-axis 1.0” (26mm)
(1.25” – 32 mm optional bar diameter) version of the
Cyclone CS
sliding headstock CNC screw machine turning center without a guide
bushing: This helps to facilitate faster setups, greater work piece
concentricity, and superior cutting rigidity over conventional
turning centers and screw machines.
The CYCLONE CY-25/32 does not
require the use of ground barstock like the Swiss-style machines
must use, which represents an additional costs savings when using
this machine design. The Cyclone CY 25/32 CNC screw machine
configuration also allows for shorter cycle times due to the
enhanced rigidity and the ability to aggressively rough-out material
and finish with a second tool, all while achieving greater tool
life. The Cyclone CY-25/32 can use as many tools as necessary to
rough and finish a feature on the workpiece, unlike conventional
Swiss machines that are limited by the length of the guide bushing,
and must make the rough and finish cut with one-tool in one-pass.
These advantages are particularly evident in work with shorter work
with lower length-to-diameter ratios than when machining using a
standard Swiss-style lathe with a guide bushing.
The
GANESH CYCLONE CY-25/32 features 18-tool stations which comprise of
a bank of 4-live cross tools, a bank of 3-axial live tools, 6-turing
tool stations, and 5-ID tool stations, all in a gang configuration
to machine one-sided work complete. Additional cutting tools can be
utilized in machining the workpiece by double-tooling the ID-tools
stations with dual insert boring bar holders for rough and finish
boring, boring and turning, boring and threading etc. with twin
insert boring bars.
The CYCLONE CY-25/32 X-axis stroke is
7.5”, the Y-axis moves 11” for full off-centerline machining
capability, and the Z-axis has 6.5” of headstock movement. The full
rotary C-axis has 360,000 positions (0.001-degree resolution) for
engraving and other complex radial machining details. The 5-station
fixed ID gang tooled slide can use solid bushings or ER-20 collets
to hold cutting tools. All of the rotary tooling included with the
machine also uses the same ER-20 collets for tool shanks up to ½”
(13mm).
The 5000 pound GANESH CYCLONE CY-25/32
is equipped with a 5-horspower spindle motor (7.5 HP peak) with a
6000 rpm spindle, and features rigid tapping and a PC-based control
with program assist for fast and easy canned cycle development for
efficient programming at the machine, and also uses standard EIA
coding for off-line programming using the RS-232 port and a 3.5”
floppy disk drive for program transfer.
This compact machine
comes complete with a parts catcher, and hydraulic chucking
featuring a Traub A-25 “True-Length” collet chuck for barstock up to
Ø1”. A complete line of barfeeders and automatic barloaders for 6’
and 12’ barstock is available for unattended production machining.
