WFL Millturn Technologies vs WFL Millturn Technologies · Mill-Turn Machines
Summary
The WFL M120 MILLTURN and the WFL M80 MILLTURN are large mill-turn machines for complete machining of shafts, rotors and forgings. Both have 650 mm (25.6 in) of Y travel and offer 36/72/108-tool magazines, with up to 200 tools on the M80 MILLTURN. The M120 MILLTURN is the heavy-cutting machine; the M80 MILLTURN is the faster one.
The M120 MILLTURN delivers 103/113 kW (138.1/151.5 hp) and 10,160/14,000 N·m against 56/80 kW (75.1/107.3 hp) and 3,420/5,860 N·m, turns up to 12,000 mm (472.4 in) long against up to 6,000 mm (236.2 in), and swings Ø1,140 mm (44.9 in). The M80 MILLTURN runs its main spindle to 1,600/2,400 rpm against 1,000/1,600 rpm, and uses a SIEMENS SINUMERIK ONE control against a SINUMERIK 840D sl.
