The Shimada 2SI-6 / 2SI-8 / 2SI-10 2-Spindle 1NC Lathe was developed from the architecture of “reducing idle time to the utmost limit."

Collet chuck, 6", 8", 10", 12" chucks

Loading with one spindle while processing with the other. Chip to Chip time “2 seconds.” Spindle index time “0.9 seconds.”

This design, with the chucking position outside the machine, leads to easy manual loading/unloading and chuck exchange

Simultaneous processing of the front and back side of workpieces with one machine

This lathe is optimal for the following types of work:

Tasks that need a short cycle time and a long loading time

Tasks with a short cycle time (work with a large loading time to cycle time ratio)

Tasks with a big difference between the 1st and 2nd process cycle times

Tasks that requires a large amount of time for chucking under manual loading condition
