The Akira-Seiki SH 400 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance CNC machine designed for precision machining of complex workpieces. It features a robust table/work support system with a table size of 15.800 inches (L) x 15.800 inches (W), capable of supporting workpieces up to 1,000 lbs. The machine comes standard with an index table and offers an optional rotary table for enhanced flexibility. The spindle is oriented horizontally, equipped with a CAT #40 taper (BT #40 optional), and delivers a top speed of 12,000 RPM, powered by a 20 HP (30-minute rating) motor for efficient material removal. Tooling is managed by an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 40 tools, expandable to 60 tools, and a rapid tool change time of 1.8 seconds. The SH 400 includes a standard pallet changer with two pallets, optimizing production efficiency. The machine provides three standard axes (X, Y, Z) with optional fourth-axis capability, and features travel distances of 22.000 inches (X), 20.000 inches (Y), and 20.000 inches (Z), with a B-axis rotation of 360 degrees. Maximum feed rates reach 700 inches per minute, and rapid traverse speeds are up to 1,400 inches per minute on all linear axes, ensuring fast and accurate machining operations.
