The MD Series Turning Centers is designed for compact line operation, flexibility in manufacturing, versatility and easy setup change. The column-type turret design provides rigidity, smooth axis movement, high speed positioning and when combined, results in stable cutting, close tolerances, and high productivity. Closed ‘C' loop between chuck and cutting tool enhances machining rigidity – allowing for full utilization of spindle and live tool power over a wide speed range.
The MD120 and MD200 twin spindle turning centers are built with completely separate bed constructions. Separate beds eliminate the transfer of harmonic vibrations. This unique design provides excellent workpiece roundness and tremendous surface finish capabilities. The MD Series turning centers incorporate live tools on the turret as a standard feature with spindle drive positioning control. Live tools are available on all turret stations. The Live tool heads are available as an option to suit various requirements.
