Spinner TTS125

A 125 mm (4.9 in) bar capacity sets the Spinner TTS125 apart from every other TTS lathe. It is a multi-turret machine on a 90-degree inclined bed with a 585 mm (23.0 in) maximum turning diameter, a maximum chuck part diameter of approx. 500 mm (19.7 in) and a turret row that reads 2 - 4.

The comparison that matters is with the TTS85, because the two share most of their table. Both list 310 mm (12.2 in) of X travel, 200 mm (7.9 in) of Y, a spindle distance of 1,500 mm (59.1 in) and BMT45 or BMT65 tooling. Against the TTS85 two rows change: bar capacity rises from 85 mm (3.3 in) to 125 mm (4.9 in), and the chuck part diameter from approx. 300 mm (11.8 in) to approx. 500 mm (19.7 in). The TTS125 is the version for big stock and big chucked parts, and nothing in the table suggests it gains travel.

Bar of that size is heavy, and so is a chucked part of 500 mm (19.7 in), so loading deserves as much thought as cutting. Spinner lists Robobox XL as the automation. The table gives no part weight for it, no spindle speed and no spindle power. On a machine meant for stock of this class those are the first three figures to ask for.

The turret versions are named Duplex, Twin, Triplex and Quadrex. Up to two Y axes with a ±100 mm stroke are listed, and the second end is a CNC tailstock or a sub-spindle. The control is Siemens or Fanuc.
