INDEX MS22-6/INDEX MS22-6L

INDEX CNC multi-spindle automatic lathe: the benchmark!

With the INDEX MS22-6 / MS22-6L multi-spindle automatic

turning machines, configurable as desired, INDEX offers a

machine concept that meets all requirements and the highest

standards.

Six main spindles, up to two swiveling synchronous spindles

and up to 11 tool carriers, which can be configured in the X, Y

and Z directions, allow for unimagined machining possibilities.

The highest degree of productivity and efficiency in

multi-spindle automatic lathes, combined with the accuracy

and flexibility of CNC single-spindle lathes, is the formula

for the success of the INDEX MS22-6 and INDEX MS22-6L

multi-spindle automatic lathes.

Machine design

• Compact front-opening machine for bar machining

• Freely accessible, making it extremely user-friendly

• Six high-precision motorized spindles

• Highly dynamic slide with sliding guide (X axis)

• Non-wearing Z axis, thanks to hydrostatically supported

tailstock quills

• Integrated swiveling synchronous spindle for rear-end

machining, and placement of finished parts on conveyor

without risk of damage

• Each working spindle includes two tool carriers

• Includes iXpanel Cockpit solution (based on Siemens

S840D sl)

The INDEX MS22-6 machine

concept has been systematically

designed according to user needs

The key element

The compact spindle drum provides maximum precision in

any position, thanks to its three-part Hirth coupling.

The central module is made up of six air-cooled motorized

spindles, integrated in the drum. An infinitely variable speed

range, high tractive force, compact design, low maintenance,

and the latest synchronous drive technology – these are the

criteria that make an INDEX CNC multi-spindle automatic

lathe stand out.

Independent speeds

The spindle speed for each spindle position and each tool

edge can be optimized, even while cutting is in progress.

The results are optimum chipping, maximum surface quality,

short production times per piece, and extended tool life.

You can also machine materials that, until now, were largely

unsuited to multi-spindle automatic lathes.

More than just turning

INDEX CNC multi-spindle automatic lathes with live tooling,

C axis, and Y axis, give you access to entirely new processes,

such as:

• off-center bores and threads

• inclined bores

• contour milling

• hobbing

• polygon turning

The key element: it’s original when it originates from INDEX

Precise, fast, and flexible

Machine structure

The modular INDEX system allows you to build the

MS22-6 according to your exact requirements.

The double three-spindle machine for maximum work

output

• Additional part production time reduction due to

simultaneous manufacturing of 2 identical workpieces

• 10 tool carriers with 1 or 2 axes

• 2 synchronous spindles

• 2 back-boring slides

• Rear-end machining with 6 tools per synchronous spindle,

2 of which are live

Versatility is a strength of the INDEX MS22-6.

Whether complex parts or many different processes –

almost anything is possible

• 11 tool carriers with 1 or 2 travel axes

• 1 or 2 synchronous spindles

• Insertion of up to 18 tools on main spindles

• Variable use of tool carriers for internal and external

machining

• Cross machining with live tools

• C axis and multi-edge turning for extended use options

Rear-end machining with swiveling synchronous

spindle

• Up to 6 tools, 3 of which are live

• Fast swiveling motion and hydraulic synchronous spindle

clamping

• Efficient chip fall, as machining takes place outside the

main work area

• A variety of machining possibilities: drilling, outside

turning, facing, thread chasing, thread stripping, off-center

machining, cross drilling

• X axis back-boring slide movement

The work area – virtually

limitless machining

options for each spindle

position

The tool carrier arrangement

in the work area, without

longitudinal sliding block,

allows more than one tool

to be used on each spindle.

Available machining opera-

tions are therefore limited

only by the toolholder.

As a result, you can specify

all production steps in

all spindle positions.

Another advantage:

They have free chip fall.

Performance, as we

understand it

Maximum productivity

and cost-effectiveness of

multi-spindle automatic

lathes, combined with the

precision and flexibility of

CNC single-spindle lathes,

is the formula for success

lathes.

INDEX MS22-6L – high-productivity manufacture of straight-turned parts

The multi-spindle automatic lathe with straight

turning function

The newly developed INDEX MS22-6L sliding headstock

turning unit enables highly productive machining of typical

straight-turned parts, on a multi-spindle automatic lathe.

The sliding headstock automatic lathes are inspired by

the INDEX MS22-6, which is known for its reliability.


By simultaneous use of up to 11 tools (2 cutting edges per

spindle) on the total of 6 work spindles, the INDEX MS22-6L

is the world's most productive solution for producing straight-

turned parts of all kinds. A synchronous spindle also makes

rear-end machining possible with up to 6 tools (2 of which

are live).

12

The core of the newly designed sliding headstock turning unit is the centered guide block, set up on the spindle

drum, on which the 6 long turning sleeves move.

• Solid guide block with

6 high-precision hydro-

Workpiece handling systems

Parts feed and discharge by 6-axis robot via the swivel

disk interface to the external handling system

The workpiece handling system for chuck parts and bar

segments can be used for 6-spindle machining with and

without synchronous spindle, as well as for double 3-spindle

machining.

A 3 x OP10 (first side) and 3 x OP20 (second side) variant,

with external turning station, is also available.

Parts routing via a shoot with built-in parts conveyor

The parts fall onto the internal conveyor belt through a

chute and are then deflected 90° by another chute to reach

a second external conveyor belt

Linear shuttle with intermediate gripper for directed

parts removal

Zero damage, fast, position-oriented removal by a linear and

rotary motion. The workpiece is transferred from the synchro-

nous spindle, from spindle position 6 on the linear shuttle;

this transfers the workpiece to the external handling system.

Focus on production and control – Industry 4.0 included.

The iXpanel operating concept provides access to networked

production. With iXpanel, your staff always has all relevant

information for efficient production right at the machine.

iXpanel is already included a standard and can be individually

extended. You can use iXpanel as you want it for your business

organization – that’s Industry 4.0 tailored to your needs.

Future-proof.

iXpanel integrates the latest control generation SIEMENS S840D sl.

Use iXpanel intuitively through an 18.5” touch monitor.

Productive.

Machine performance is maximized

by optimally tuned processes in

machine cycles with clear control

screens. In addition, technology

cycles are provided for frequently

recurring machining operations and

safe machine operation as well as

for optimum machining quality.

Intelligent.

The machine always starts with the

control home screen. Other functions

can always be displayed on a second

screen, and the operator enjoys direct,

activity-related assistance already in the

standard version, such as workpiece

drawing, setup lists, programming

tools, documentation, etc., right at the

machine.

Virtual & open.

With the optional VPC box (industrial

PC), iXpanel opens up the world of

Virtual Machine and of simulation

directly at the control (VM on Board).

Thanks to the VPC-box (option), the

machine can also be integrated easily

and fully into IT networks and struc-

tures. You determine what additional

applications are used on the VPC box!
