Index introduces MS40C six-spindle CNC machine

New multi-spindle auto delivers economic mill-turning of parts up to 40mm diameter

German multi-spindle automatic lathe manufacturer Index, has introduced a six-spindle CNC machine of 40mm bar capacity, aware that the vast majority of mill-turned components required by industry fall within this size range. The new multi sits between 32mm and 52mm capacity models in the MultiLine range, but the price is closer to that of the smaller machine.

The Index MS40C can be configured to suit customer requirements in terms of the number of cross-slides, Y-axes, and synchronous pick-up spindles

Index is arguably the largest manufacturer of this type of machine, and its range of machines the widest, encompassing a 22mm capacity model in addition to 32, 40 and 52mm – and enhanced by P and G variants with opposed spindle technology. The new MS40C can be customised with up to twelve CNC cross-slides, optional Y-axes and further equipment to enable high productivity machining of parts in one hit from up to 40mm bar stock, or chucked parts up to approximately 70mm in diameter
