AKIRA SEIKI HV8A VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Akira Seiki HV8A is a robust vertical machining center engineered for high-precision manufacturing operations. This 3-axis CNC machine features a powerful 26.1 kW (42 HP) spindle capable of reaching 8,000 RPM, providing excellent cutting performance across diverse materials and applications. The machine is equipped with a BT50/CAT50 tool holder interface and accommodates an automatic tool changer (ATC) with 28 tool positions, enabling efficient multi-operation workflows without manual tool changes. The working table measures 800.1 mm in width by 2,151.4 mm in length, offering substantial workspace for medium to large workpieces. The machine's control system utilizes the AKIRA Mi:845 CNC controller, which is compatible with Fanuc G-code programming, facilitating ease of operation and program portability. With rapid traverse rates of 36 m/min on X/Y axes and 30 m/min on the Z-axis, combined with positioning accuracy of 0.015 mm and repetition accuracy of ±0.005 mm, this machine delivers precision and speed for demanding applications. The HV8A occupies a floor footprint of approximately 195 inches wide by 139 inches deep, with a total weight of 14,410 kilograms, requiring substantial facility infrastructure and proper foundation support. This machine represents a superior speed, heavy-duty platform ideal for shops requiring high-rigidity performance and production reliability in competitive manufacturing environments.
