FlexDrill TRD vertical machining center suitable for tube, pipe processing

FlexDrill CNC has introduced the TRD vertical machining center, which drills, mills, taps, and bevels large or long parts in a single setup. Alternately, the long, open bed, coupled with the movable safety light curtain, allows multiple setups so that while the system is machining one part, another can be loaded or offloaded.

The open design provides unrestricted access for simplified loading and unloading. With a 2-ft. bed width and lengths from 10 to 80 ft., the machine is suitable for processing tube and pipe.

Features include a monoblock welded steel frame with high rigidity and a T-slot machine bed. Spindle taper of CT or BT 40 is available, in speeds from 2,000 to 6,000 RPM, with a maximum torque capability of 184 ft./lbs. Maximum travel rate is 1,181 IPM along the X axis, 984 IPM along the Y axis, and 165 IPM along the Z axis. Spindle nose to table distance is 8.75 to 24.75 in.
