INDEX is introducing the TRAUB TNL12 lean, an entry-level version of its well-established small sliding/fixed headstock turning machine. This machine is confi gured with a single turret and a back working unit, while simplified alternatives are used for other components. The result is a flexible, cost-effective, and highly efficient production turning machine ideal for producing simpler, high-precision parts, such as those required in medical technology.

• Easy changeover from Swiss-type to fixed headstock operation
• Generously dimensioned and ergonomic work area
• Extremely compact machine layout for high productivity per unit area
• High accuracy due to thermo-symmetrical design and cast iron machine bed
• 2 liquid-cooled 4.4 kW motor spindles ensure high dynamics
• Live guide bushing with a carbon drive sleeve
• Tool turret offers greater flexibility in tool setup compared to a linear unit
• Swiveling control panel with a large 19” multi-touch display
• Workpiece flushing via the back working unit 
• Optional second workpiece container and workpiece selector
• Comprehensive software package and new-generation control system
• All options can be configured as needed
• Best performance for applications in the medical technology, optical precision engineering, electrical engineering industries
