High Precision Machine Tools at Outstanding Prices

Dealers and end-users looking for outstanding prices on great machine tools need to stop and visit Chevalier Machinery, Inc. (Sante Fe Springs, CA). There they will see  the following machine tools:

The FBL-510C large bore horizontal lathe with live tooling features dual chuck capability with a 12.5 in spindle bore diameter. The slant bed lathes are stable, highly accurate machines that can handle rough- and fine-turning operations. The three-speed gearbox provides enough horsepower for large diameter, heavy-duty cutting.

The AFBL-360LB heavy-duty box way horizontal lathe has a 45 deg slant bed, rigid box ways structure and programmable tailstock. With its new design, the machine is engineered with ease of access. The tool setters help reduce set-up times and keep non-machining times to a minimum. That’s a huge asset. The lathe features a 35 hp AC digital spindle motor with a two-speed gearbox and a 15 in hydraulic chuck, 30.3 in maximum swing, maximum turning diameter of 22.4 in and maximum turning length up to 80 in.

The FNL-250SY multi-axis turning/milling lathe is an incredibly versatile linear roller guide way machine that provides excellent rigidity and relays very fast linear motion. The chuck size is up to 10 in and the bar capacity is up to 2.5 in. Main spindle motor is 20 hp with 282 ft-lb of maximum torque at 374 rpm. Maximum spindle speed is 4,500 rpm. The sub-spindle motor is 10 hp with 35 ft-lb of maximum torque at 1,500 rpm. The maximum spindle speed is 15,000 rpm.

The FNL 250SY Multi-Axis Turning-Milling Lathe features Rexroth roller type linear guide ways, a rigid BMT 12 station live turret, a high torque CF axis, built-in sub-spindle 77 mm (3.03 in) spindle bore and an 8 in chuck.

QP2443 heavy-duty box way vertical machining center has received praise from our clients for the machine’s rigid structure and high-precision for high productivity in heavy workpieces. The machine’s table size is 49 in x 25.6 in with a table load at 2,640 lb. XYZ travel is 43 in x 24 in x 25 in. The maximum tool diameter without adjacent tool is 4.1 in with adjacent tool and 7.8 in without adjacent tool.

The new SMART-B818III  fully automatic grinder is capable of producing “mirror” surface finishes on highly accurately ground workpieces that produce microfinishes of 5 RMS. The positioning accuracy is ±0.0025 micron and the grinding accuracy is 1 micron. The maximum distance from table to spindle centerline is 18 in and wheel spindle is rated at 1000-7000 rpm and 3 hp. The SMART standard grinding wheel size is 8 in x ½ in x 1-¼ in. The SMART PC-based control, combined with a user-friendly conversational TaskLink function, makes it easy to learn and operate.

The new FSG-1224ADIII surface and profile CNC grinder includes the new touch-screen control station that provides a grind cycle with rough grinding, fine grinding, spark-out passes and an automatic over-wheel dresser with compensation, which can be added to fully automate the grind process. After the cycle is finished, the table will “park” either left or right of the saddle and at the front to facilitate unloading and loading. The spindle can be set to “stop running” or “continue running.” The wheel head can also be set to return to the start position or to park at a reference point.

Once the cycle is started, the wheel head will move rapidly to the start point and repeat the grind cycle. If material is required to be removed from both sides, “flip over” can be selected, so that the wheel head position is at the finish grind height, which will start grinding immediately without touching off.
