Spinner TTS42

Q: How much does the Spinner TTS42 cost?

The price estimate for the Spinner TTS42 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/spinner-tts42#price; the request is passed to Spinner or an authorised dealer.

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Spinner TTS42 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

The Spinner TTS42 is a multi-turret lathe for long, slender bar parts: 42 mm (1.7 in) of bar capacity, 600 mm (23.6 in) of maximum turning length and a 250 mm (9.8 in) maximum turning diameter on a 90-degree inclined bed.

What separates it from the shorter TTS36 is the list of configurations. The TTS42 can be built with 2 - 3 turrets, in versions Spinner names Duplex, Twin and Triplex, and with up to 2 Y axes. Y travel is 90 mm (3.5 in). Spinner's page does not spell out which turret sits where in each version, so get the layout drawing for the version being quoted.

The machine is equipped for shafts. Z travel is 688 mm (27.1 in), longer than the 600 mm (23.6 in) turning length. The second end takes a CNC tailstock or a sub-spindle, and a turret steady rest is optional. At 42 mm (1.7 in) and under, a part near 600 mm (23.6 in) long is slender enough to deflect under the tool, which is the case for a steady rest carried on a turret. X travel is 180 mm (7.1 in).

Tooling is VDI25 or BMT45, a choice that should follow the holders a shop already owns. The control is Siemens or Fanuc and the listed automation is Robobox. The table has no spindle speed or power figures.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

2 - 3 turrets in Duplex, Twin or Triplex versions, with up to 2 Y axes
600 mm (23.6 in) maximum turning length with 688 mm (27.1 in) of Z travel
CNC tailstock or sub-spindle at the second end, plus an optional turret steady rest for slender shafts
Tooling system is a choice of VDI25 or BMT45
Y travel of 90 mm (3.5 in) for off-centre drilling and milling

Limitations

Bar capacity is 42 mm (1.7 in); the TTS65 lists the same turning length with 65 mm (2.6 in)
X travel is 180 mm (7.1 in), less than the 205 mm (8.1 in) of the shorter TTS36
The turret steady rest is an option, and tailstock and sub-spindle are listed as alternatives
Spinner's page gives no spindle speed, power or driven-tool figures for the TTS42

Best For

Slender shafts up to 600 mm (23.6 in) long from bar up to 42 mm (1.7 in) Parts whose cycle time justifies a three-turret configuration Long parts that need steady-rest support during turning Bar parts with off-centre features within 90 mm (3.5 in) of Y travel

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How many turrets can the Spinner TTS42 have?

The turret row reads 2 - 3, with the version names Duplex, Twin and Triplex, and up to 2 Y axes are listed. Spinner's table does not describe the turret positions of each version or say which versions carry the Y axes, so those details need to come from the layout drawing of the version you are quoted.

02 What is the maximum part length on the TTS42?

The maximum turning length is 600 mm (23.6 in), and Z travel is 688 mm (27.1 in). For parts near that length the table offers a CNC tailstock, and a turret steady rest is available as an option. Maximum turning diameter is 250 mm (9.8 in) and bar capacity is 42 mm (1.7 in).

03 What is the difference between the TTS42 and the TTS65?

Bar capacity. The TTS42 takes 42 mm (1.7 in) bar and the TTS65 takes 65 mm (2.6 in). Both list a 600 mm (23.6 in) turning length and a 250 mm (9.8 in) turning diameter. Spinner's table gives no spindle speeds for the TTS42, so ask whether its smaller spindle runs faster.

04 Does the TTS42 have a sub-spindle?

It can. The table lists a CNC tailstock or a sub-spindle, which reads as a choice between the two. The tailstock suits shaft work along the 600 mm (23.6 in) turning length. The sub-spindle suits parts that are cut off and then machined on the second side.

05 Which tooling systems are available on the TTS42?

VDI25 or BMT45. The shorter TTS36 lists BMT45 only. Decide by the tool holders already in the shop and by the driven tools the parts need, and ask Spinner for driven-tool speed and power, which the table does not state.
