SW-42 Series

SW-42 is a Swiss-type CNC turning center for precision components up to Ø42 mm. Its hybrid guide bush system supports operation with or without a guide bush, while configurable tooling and sub-spindle versions enable front, cross and rear machining within one machine.

  • Ø42 mm machining capacity with guide bush or bushless operation
  • 6,000 rpm main spindle and 4–10 cross live tools
  • A, C and D configurations for different sub-spindle and backworking requirements

Overview

SW-42 Swiss-Type CNC Turning Center

SW-42 is designed for series production of small and medium-diameter components. Its tooling system combines turning, milling, drilling and tapping, supporting applications in automotive production, industrial machinery and medical equipment.

The hybrid guide bush system allows the operating mode to be selected for the workpiece. Maximum turning length per chucking is 180 mm with the guide bush and 110 mm in bushless mode. A rotary hydraulic cylinder provides the clamping force for demanding cutting operations.

The main spindle reaches 6,000 rpm and delivers 5.5 kW continuously or 7.5 kW for 30 minutes. The C and D versions add a 6,000 rpm sub-spindle rated at 3.7 kW continuously and 5.5 kW for 30 minutes. The D version also includes a dedicated backworking tooling system.

The tool layout accommodates five or six external turning tools, five internal tools and 4–10 cross live tools. C-axis control with 0.001° resolution supports coordinated machining with live tools. Special holders extend the range of operations, while the standard Air Bag function helps limit the consequences of accidental collisions and optional OCR Oscillation Cutting improves chip control.

Key Features – SW-42 Series

Hybrid Guide Bush Operation

Choose guide bush or bushless operation, with turning lengths per chucking of 180 mm and 110 mm respectively.

Flexible Front and Cross Tooling

Five or six external tools, five internal tools and 4–10 cross live tools support a range of turning and milling operations.

Configurable Backworking Capability

C and D versions include a sub-spindle; the D version adds dedicated tooling for machining the rear of the component.

6,000 rpm Main Spindle

The main spindle combines 6,000 rpm speed with 5.5/7.5 kW continuous/30-minute output and hydraulic clamping.

Notes

  • The 180 mm and 110 mm turning lengths apply to a single chucking in guide bush and bushless modes respectively.
  • Sub-spindle specifications apply to the C and D configurations. The dedicated backworking tooling system is included in the D configuration.
  • The five-tool external turning configuration uses □20 mm shanks. The six-tool configuration combines one □20 mm tool with five □16 mm tools.
  • Continuous and 30-minute motor ratings describe different operating conditions. Main-spindle and sub-spindle power ratings are specified separately.
  • Cross live tool capacity depends on the selected holders. Special machining operations and OCR Oscillation Cutting require the corresponding equipment or option.

Applications

General machining

Mixed prototype and production work across sizes; flexible envelopes and quick changeovers speed setups, reduce handling, and keep output consistent day to day.

Automotive

Tooling and production parts across the supply chain, from fixtures and dies to turned and milled components; repeatable referencing supports surface quality and tight tolerances.

Energy

Pump and valve components, compressor parts, and auxiliary housings; controlled cutting and chip/coolant management help protect tolerances, surface finish, and tool life.

Oil & Gas

Valve bodies, manifolds, housings, and high-integrity flanges; robust machining strategies and chip/coolant control help maintain tolerances in demanding alloys.

Defense

Housings, carriers, and structural parts in high-strength alloys; stable machining conditions and verified datums deliver repeatable accuracy under heavy cuts.
