The Lynx 2600SY, the latest generation in the Lynx series of compact turning centers with a Y-axis, incorporates all the design features of the popular Lynx 2100LSYB but is built on a slightly bigger platform.
The Lynx 2600SY was designed to provide maximum flexibility and versatility for job shops that want to handle a wider range of projects without stepping up in size to a PUMA Series boxway machine.
The Lynx 2600SY is designed with a rigid bed structure and incorporates roller-type LM guides for all axes. The maximum turning diameter is 14.9 in. and the maximum turning length is 24 in., and the main spindle incorporates a 10-in. chuck while the sub-spindle handles either a 6 or 8-in. chuck size. The main spindle has a speed of 3,500 r/min (25HP) while the sub-spindle turns at 4,500 r/min (15HP), making quick work of complex parts. The Y-axis travel is 4.13 in., and a 12 station servo-driven BMT tool turret with a half index feature (24 positions) is standard.
A new feature on the Lynx 2600SY is the latest controller from FANUC, the 0i-TF Plus, which is available with an optional iHMI user interface, specifically designed by FANUC for ease of use. The 0i-TF Plus features 3D part views that will offer more detail, which are easily viewable on the 15-in. touch screen (previously 10 in.). The control is equipped with the Doosan EZ guide conversational programming feature but doesn't take away the traditional G-code programming language.
