CNC Machining Centers with Integrated Facing Heads
Maximize production efficiency, eliminate multiple setups, and achieve unmatched tolerances with our U-axis horizontal machining solutions designed for complex heavy industry parts.
Trevisan's Dynamic U-Axis Facing Head Technology
Trevisan Machine Tool has set the global benchmark for horizontal milling machine quality, performance, and operational efficiency for decades. Our U-axis horizontal machining centers feature a signature dual-spindle configuration that allows complete milling and turning functionality in a single setup. By holding the workpiece stationary and moving the built-in facing heads around the part, this system machines a broader range of complex, heavy-duty geometries without rotating the piece.
For international buyers looking to consolidate production lines, Trevisan's technology offers an extra axis of movement at varying angles relative to the standard X, Y, and Z axes. We are the industry leaders in developing specialized U-axis systems, providing a complete range of universal boring and facing head sizes to suit diverse manufacturing specifications.
Facing, Contouring, and Multitasking Tool Head Capabilities
An integrated contouring head on a second spindle with an independent quill unlocks a powerful set of capabilities, delivering all the advantages of a traditional lathe or face-milling machine without an additional setup. Our machining centers can bore offset diameters or turn parts at any position without dealing with the unbalanced conditions present in conventional rotating equipment. This enables rapid, precision-guided machining for gearboxes, valve housings, pumps, and engine blocks.
Trevisan's proprietary design supports a wide variety of essential industrial operations, including:
Strategic Production Benefits of Built-In Facing Heads
Invest in horizontal CNC centers with contoured facing heads to optimize output, quality metrics, and plant floor layouts.
Optimized Chip Evacuation
The U-axis horizontal machining setup enables heavy metal chips to safely eject from the workpiece naturally via gravity, preventing thermal deformation and chip re-cutting, resulting in excellent surface finishes and extended tooling life.
Setup Consolidation & Efficiency
By combining heavy milling, fine boring, and large-diameter facing on a single machine, Trevisan systems eliminate the need to transfer workpieces across multiple machines. This avoids setup errors, saves valuable floor space, and minimizes cycle-to-cycle bottleneck times.
Unmatched Geometric Accessibility
Our integrated facing heads significantly enhance part accessibility compared to standard vertical milling machines. These heads easily machine complex geometries, inner cavities, contours, and deep recesses without requiring custom fixturing or auxiliary attachments.
Rigid Construction & Tolerances
Designed with thick structural castings and high-torque spindles, our horizontal CNC centers deliver superior damping and torsional stiffness. This structural integrity maintains tight dimensional tolerances and repeatabilities over long production runs.
