At EMO 2015, which takes place from 5th to 10th October in Milan, Italy, 600 UK will exhibit the C-axis addition to its Alpha CNC combination lathe range: the Harrison Alpha XC. The company will be situated on stand C33 in hall 5.

The company introduced a combination lathe with a third axis to take on full milling, drilling and tapping functions. The C-axis capability reduces the need for second operation production for one-offs and small batch components, whilst retaining the operational simplicity of the Alpha range.

The 400mm swing over bed Alpha 1400XC boasts a contouring C-axis and uses a P-type Fanuc spindle motor. Its C-axis specification, as found on many full production slant bed CNC turning centres, also allows users to tailor the machine to their individual needs by offering the option of either a driven tool turret or a driven tool toolpost.

The turret features eight tool stations for VDI 20/DIN 5480 x 0.8 type tools, and offers a maximum power of 2.2kW and maximum spindle speed of 6,000rpm. The toolpost option is a Capto C6 type providing a maximum driven tool speed of 2,000rpm.
