Front, Back, and Off-Center at Speed

The ML-600TY is a linear way CNC turning center combining sub-spindle and Y-axis, for parts in the 8-inch chuck class that need everything done in one chucking: turning on both ends, plus flats, cross-holes, keyways, and eccentric features on either face. C-axis and live tooling come standard, with ±50 mm of Y-axis travel, and the 6-inch sub-spindle takes the part mid-cycle for back-end work.

The linear way construction keeps cycle times tight, which is where this configuration earns its keep: complex small parts at volume, in connector, hydraulic, medical, and precision contract work, where every re-clamp risks the tolerance stack. Before shipment, the main-to-sub transfer is proven on your part at our factory.

ML-600TY or Its Siblings?

Within the linear way family, the ML-600TY covers parts to about 475 mm; the ML-600MTY steps up to a 10-inch chuck and about 710 mm; the ML-600LTY reaches about 1,210 mm for long parts.

Back end needs turning only? The ML-600T drops the Y-axis and makes live tooling optional. Off-center features but single-ended parts? The ML-600Y carries the Y-axis without the sub-spindle. Heavier cutting? The BML-600TY is the box way version.

Q: What is the maximum machining length of the ML-600TY?

A: Up to 475 mm with the standard 8-inch main chuck, depending on turret type (450 mm with BMT65, 475 mm with VDI40). The sub-spindle carries a 6-inch chuck running up to 6,000 rpm.

Q: What is the difference between the ML-600TY and the ML-600T?

A: The TY adds Y-axis machining with C-axis and live tooling as standard, so off-center milling, drilling, and tapping happen in the same cycle. On the T, live tooling is optional and there is no Y-axis.

Q: When should I step up to the ML-600MTY or ML-600LTY?

A: When your parts exceed about 475 mm or need a 10-inch chuck. The MTY reaches about 710 mm; the LTY extends to about 1,210 mm for long parts with both-end and off-center features.
