The GANESH CYCLONE CY 25/32 is the 4-axis 1.0” (26mm) (1.25” – 32 mm optional bar diameter) version of the Cyclone CS  sliding headstock  CNC screw machine turning center without a guide bushing: This helps to facilitate faster setups, greater work piece concentricity, and superior cutting rigidity over conventional turning centers and screw machines.  The Cyclone CY 25/32 does not require the use of ground barstock like the Swiss-style machines must use, which represents an additional costs savings when using this machine design.  The Cyclone CY 25/32 CNC screw machine configuration also allows for shorter cycle times due to the enhanced rigidity and the ability to aggressively rough-out material and finish with a second tool, all while achieving greater tool life. The Cyclone CY 25/32 can use as many tools as necessary to rough and finish a feature on the workpiece, unlike conventional Swiss machines that are limited by the length of the guide bushing, and must make the rough and finish cut with one-tool in one-pass.  These advantages are particularly evident in work with shorter work with lower length-to-diameter ratios than when machining using a standard Swiss-style lathe with a guide bushing.

The GANESH CYCLONE CY 25/32 features 18-tool stations which comprise of a bank of 4-live cross tools, a bank of 3-axial live tools, 6-turing tool stations, and 5-ID tool stations, all in a gang configuration to machine one-sided work complete.  Additional cutting tools can be utilized in machining the workpiece by double-tooling the ID-tools stations with dual insert boring bar holders for rough and finish boring, boring and turning, boring and threading etc. with twin insert boring bars.         

The Cyclone CY 25/32  X-axis stroke is 7.5”, the Y-axis moves 11” for full off-centerline machining capability, and the Z-axis has 6.5” of headstock movement.  The full rotary C-axis has 360,000 positions (0.001-degree resolution) for engraving and other complex radial machining details.  The 5-station fixed ID gang tooled slide can use solid bushings or ER-20 collets to hold cutting tools.  All of the rotary tooling included with the machine also uses the same ER-20 collets for tool shanks up to ½” (13mm).

The 5000 pound GANESH CYCLONE CY 25/32 is equipped with a 5-horspower spindle motor (7.5 HP peak) with a 6000 rpm spindle, and features rigid tapping and a PC-based control with program assist for fast and easy canned cycle development for efficient programming at the machine, and also uses standard EIA coding for off-line programming using the RS-232 port and a 3.5” floppy disk drive for program transfer.

This compact machine comes complete with a parts catcher, and hydraulic chucking featuring a Traub A-25 “True-Length” collet chuck for barstock up to Ø1”.  A complete line of barfeeders and automatic barloaders for 6’ and 12’ barstock is available for unattended production machining.
