C16-Series Models C16 Type VII
Unique, servo-control design minimizes the number of Type VII is the basic model of the C series. It can perform
moving parts, resulting in a highly compact, near main- front drilling and back drilling or front machining and back
tenance-free turning center. Its patented Synchronous- machining simultaneously.
Superimposed functionality allows multiple operations to
be performed simultaneously. With five axes (plus
optional C-axis on both the main and sub-spindle) and a
array of fixed and rotary tools.
• For simple or complex geometries to 5/8" diameter x
7.8" long per chucking
• 100% servo driven, complete modular design
• Built-in main and sub spindles 1
• 7 axes simultaneously controlled (X1, Y1, Z1, X2, Z3, A1,
A2) 2
• Space saving tool post design (patent pending)
• Mounts up to 22 tools (live and stationary) for front and
back work
• Enhanced synchronized-superimposed operation
(patent pending)
• PC based controller, with PC card slot and networking
capability
• Displaced thermal effects for high precision over long
operating periods
• Full-open cover speeds setups and maintenance
• Cincom System M6B controller

trol provide advantages unavailable in other machine
designs:
• Lower Maintenance: belts, hydraulics, pressure sen-
sors, limit switches, pneumatics and other mainte-
nance components are minimized or completely elim-
inated. With fewer parts to wear, downtime and main-
tenance are held to a minimum. 1
• Better Performance: fewer moving parts means less
vibration and greater precision. Faster rapid traverses, 2
higher spindle speeds and shorter acceleration/ decel-
eration times enhance productivity. And with no belts,
the Cincom C16 is faster in the corners.
• Reduced Space: no hydraulics and limited pneumat-
ics, smaller electrical cabinetry, and fewer parts all
contribute to the Cincom C16’s compact, 37.8" x 88.8"
footprint.
• Shorter Production Cycles: servos allow shorter
chip-to-chip tool changes, quicker tool replacements,
and high speed rapid traverses.
