Overview
The Miyano BNA-42GTY is a two-spindle lathe for 42 mm dia. bar on the first spindle and 34 mm dia. on the second, with an 8-station turret built on a half-indexing mechanism and rapid rates listed for three axis groups: X1/Y1/Z1, X2/Y2/Z2 and X3/Z3. Maximum machining length is 100 mm.
The first spindle turns to 6,000 rpm on a motor rated 11/7.5 kW (15min/cont.); the second runs to 5,000 rpm on 5.5/3.7 kW. With half the power at the second spindle, roughing belongs on the first, and the second finishes the cut-off end.
The turret takes up to 8 revolving tools, 20 mm Sq. turning tools and drills with 25 mm dia. shanks. The Miyano BNA-42MSY lists its 8-station half-indexing turret as 16 effective positions, which shows what the mechanism adds. Only this turret is described in the table, so ask how the other two axis groups are tooled on a given machine before planning the process around them.
The first group is the fastest: 30 m/min on Z1 and Y1 and 24 m/min on X1. The second group rapids at 20 m/min on Z2 and X2 and 12 m/min on Y2, the third at 20 m/min on Z3 and 12 m/min on X3. The machine weighs 3,750 kg, stands 1,680 mm tall and needs 2,350×1,475 mm of floor.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Bar work is listed to 42 mm dia. on the first spindle and 34 mm dia. on the second. Maximum machining length is 100 mm, so the machine is aimed at short parts.
02
It is an 8-station turret with a half-indexing mechanism and up to 8 revolving tools. Turning tools are 20 mm Sq. and drill shanks 25 mm dia. Check how the other axis groups are tooled on the machine you are considering.
03
Z1 30 m/min, X1 24 m/min and Y1 30 m/min; Z2 20 m/min, X2 20 m/min and Y2 12 m/min; Z3 20 m/min and X3 12 m/min. The first group is the fastest, so the operations with the most moves belong there.
04
The Miyano BNA-42MSY also uses an 8-station half-indexing turret, listed as 16 effective positions, runs revolving tools to 6,000 RPM and weighs 3,000kg. The BNA-42GTY weighs 3,750 kg and lists rapid rates for a third axis group, X3 and Z3.
