Ideal For Automotive Applications, Fuji Introduces ANW-3500 In-Line Twin Spindle Lathe



Vernon Hills, IL - (August 17, 2006) With the introduction of its ANW-3500, Fuji offers a mid-range twin spindle lathe that is ideal for automotive applications. Fuji's ANW-3500 accommodates heavier workloads, larger machine envelopes and higher machine powers and torques than its ANW-3000, while coming with a lower price tag than its ANW-4100.

Applications for the ANW-3500 include large hubs and smaller diff cases, as well as disk brakes and rotors.

The operator-friendly ANW-3500's dual spindles operate at 25/20 HP power each (20/25 optional). An A2-6 spindle nose comes standard; an A2-8 spindle nose is available as an option for larger size chucks (12" - 15"). The ANW-3500's new swing arm robot can handle up to 7kg (15.4 lbs) of parts, and operates with the same CNC and robot control as the ANW-3000. For an improved machine envelope, the Z-axis stroke has been extended by 75mm. The ANW-3500's work size is 250mm x 4.33.
