Working horizontally
The companys slogan of machining future
points most definitely towards horizontal
drilling and boring machines. The TOS
horizontal boring mills include four-, fiveand six-axis manual, NC and CNC, and
are all assembled and machined in Varnsdorf.
Castings for the machines come from
within the Czech Republic and the control
systems from abroad mainly Germany.
Most of the horizontal boring mills models
made by TOS have an option of automatic
tool changers with standard 60 tool slots
and an automatic pallet changer.
The W 100 A model has been in production since 1964 and is still very popular. The WH 105 CNC is an up-to-date
NC mill that can be easily retrofit with
CNC. Another popular design, selling well
in the USA, is the WHN (Q) 13 CNC horizontal boring machine with cross-adjustable
rotating table, continuously controlled.
Mills are ideal for machining box sections, flat or intricate work pieces of cast
iron, cast steel or heavy steel. Half of the
machines made at TOS are five-axis
models with a 60-station tool changer.
WHN (Q) 13 CNC is a standard model.
WHN 110 (Q, MC) is a horizontal boring
mill with cross-bed arrangement coming
in three versions: the WHN 110 standard
