Get in touch

This advanced CNC turning centre supports 5-axis single-hit machining, allowing manufacturers to efficiently produce complex components with exceptional precision and speed.

By automatically transferring workpieces from the main spindle to the sub-spindle, the Tornado SL25 MSY facilitates seamless turning, milling, and drilling on both sides of the component. This eliminates the need for multiple setups, drastically reducing cycle times and improving overall throughput.

The addition of the Y-axis expands the machine’s functionality, enabling precise off-centre milling for keyways, flats, and contoured surfaces, further enhancing its capability to produce intricate parts with superior accuracy.

With its advanced technology and multi-tasking capabilities, the Tornado SL25 MSY is an essential asset in any production environment, providing a powerful solution for achieving both superior accuracy and extraordinary efficiency.
