AVEREX HS-540I HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The AVEREX HS-540i is a high-speed horizontal machining center engineered for precision, rigidity, and high capacity. It features equal travel distances of 31.5 inches (800 mm) along the X, Y, and Z axes, supported by a robust 50 hp spindle motor capable of reaching maximum speeds of 15,000 RPM. The machine is equipped with an Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) holding up to 80 tools, facilitating versatile and efficient machining operations. The pallet size measures 15.7" by 15.7" (398.78 mm by 398.78 mm), designed for optimal workpiece handling. It uses CAT-40/BBT-40 taper tooling and operates with a 3-axis CNC control system, specifically the AVEREX-FANUC MPro I (0i-MF) with USB and CF card compatibility for program storage. The machine dimensions are 193.5" by 104.7" by 103.6", with a substantial weight of 28,512 pounds, reflecting a rigid one-piece stepped machine base with heavy ribbing for stability and precision. Additional features include a full chip enclosure, 3-axis telescopic way covers, sealed electrical cabinet with heat exchanger, and a safety door. The controller supports advanced functions such as programmable spindle load monitoring, ATC speed control, and extensive coordinate offsets, ensuring high accuracy and operational efficiency. This machining center is ideal for demanding applications requiring high speed and precision with excellent repeatability and tool capacity.
