NILES-SIMMONS RMC Wheel Machining Center

The NILES-SIMMONS RMC Wheel Machining Centers are CNC vertical turning lathes for the heavy duty production of railway wheels. Robust design, use of heavy-duty cutting tools with HSK 100 interface, and automatic tool change ensure optimal machining of forged or hot-rolled wheels.

The RMC utilizes a turn-milling unit for additional railway wheel machining processes as well as accommodating rotationally symmetric work pieces from the aerospace and bearing industries.
