Swiss Turning
Mica-Tron Products Corp. recently acquired a Tsugami BO326-II Swiss lathe, an 8 axis opposed gang tool Swiss CNC lathe which performs overlapped, simultaneous machining on the front and back spindles. Our engineering staff have the knowledge and expertise to optimally balance operations between spindles, reducing your part’s cycle time by up to 50%.
Traditional guide bushing bar-fed operation is not possible with the ceramics, foams and composites in which we specialize. Our Tsugami is fitted with the chucker kit, which eliminates the guide bushing, allowing machining of short lengths of stock, and utilizing the maximum amount of each length available.
