PRO Series High-Speed 5-Axis Horizontal Profilers



SNK's PRO Series line of high-speed 5-axis profilers is designed to meet the aerospace industry's growing demand for monolithic components. These machines enable 5-axis simultaneous machining of medium to large complex aluminum aerospace parts.

"Their high-performance features, enhanced design and construction, and innovative pallet handling system are designed to increase productivity, machining flexibility and system expandability," said a company spokesperson. "High-speed spindles and rapid feedrates boost metal removal rates and productivity. Enhanced axes movements allow for expanded 5-axis simultaneous contouring capability." The profilers are available with table lengths of 157.5" and 236.2".

Features and benefits include:

  • High-speed 114 HP 20,000 RPM/134 HP 30,000 RPM spindles
  • A-axis +/-100°, C-axis continuous enhanced 5-axis simultaneous machining capability and back-angle cutting; 1,575 IPM rapid feed boosts productivity
  • Horizontal design provides enhanced chip evacuation, optimizing tool life and minimizing thermal distortion due to chip build-up
  • SNK's exclusive DCS-VII Aero Software provides high-speed, high-precision machining with enhanced surface finishes
  • Rigid pallet support and clamping system optimizes accuracy and surface finishes while enabling heavier pallet load capacity
  • External tilting table pallet load station with side delivery system enables multiple machine pallet feed and simplifies workpiece loading/unloading. Flexible floor plan layouts suit the user's facility.
  • Flexible system expansion capability allows users to add machines as needs grow - no need to purchase additional palletizing stations.
