Absolute Machine Tools offers more cost-effective engineered solutions for the automotive industry than we have room for. All of our brands of CNC machine tools have touched this industry throughout our 30+ year history. The newest brand in our CNC machine lineup that is particularly tailored to the Automotive industry is PCI, a Tongtai company.
PCI (a Tongtai company) designed its Meteor series machines to process internal combustion engine parts such as gearbox housings and cylinder blocks as well as electric motor housings and battery tray components for hybrid and fully electric vehicles. The machines can produce structural and suspension components including steering arms and knuckles in addition to aluminum parts for nearly any automotive application. The twin spindle series was designed with two independent work zones, which can equate to a 30% or more cost savings when compared to buying 2 individual single spindle machines. Floor space is also maximized with one machine versus two, allowing for increased throughput and ROI.
Adjustable distance between the two independent spindles on twin-spindle Meteor TS630V machines permits great flexibility of application. Users can program the machining centers to process two identical parts, perform two different operations on the same part, or machine two completely different parts simultaneously.
