Miyano's ABX Super Turning Center models ABX-51TH3, ABX-51THY and ABX-51THB are equipped with two spindles and three turrets. They are capable of processing complex parts efficiently in a single setup. The ABX-51TH3 has upper two turrets on the left and right side, both with Y-axis controls. A lower turret, capable of working on both the left and right spindles, makes a total of 36 tools available to perform complex front and back operations simultaneously. The ABX-51THY has the same features as the ABX-51TH3, but adds a Y-axis control to the lower turret. The ABX-51THB features an independent B-axis lower turret that further simplifies the machining of angular features. Both the ABX-51THY and ABX-51THB incorporate more powerful motorized turrets, allowing for heavier cutting to be performed by the live tools.
