The NZ-S1500  has been created to machine shafts. It employs a symmetrical design in which the two turrets are aligned with the spindle, which is mounted on the vertical bed. This layout is designed to increase productivity; improve accuracy during continuous machining; and reduce the input of heat.

The company says the machine’s arrangement also improves accessibility and chip disposal. Chips fall directly into the chip pan, avoiding accumulation. In addition, a vertical protector prevents chips from reaching the linear guide or ballscrews. The machine can accomodate workpieces with a diameter of 120 mm. It also features a high speed loader with a rotary hand function.
