2021 BROTHER S300X2 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2021 Brother Speedio S300X2 is a 3-axis high-speed machining center and tapping center produced by Brother Industries, Ltd. (Japan), representing the second-generation S300 platform in Brother's compact Speedio lineup. The machine features a single-pallet worktable measuring 23.6 inches by 15.7 inches with a maximum load of 551 lbs (up to 661 lbs with parameter adjustment). The spindle uses a BT30 (MAS 7/24 taper No. 30) interface and is driven by a motor rated at 10 HP (7.1 kW) continuous (S1) at the standard 10,000 RPM configuration; optional spindle configurations include 16,000 RPM, 27,000 RPM, and high-torque 10,000 RPM variants. X-axis travel is 11.8 inches (300mm), Y-axis travel is 15.7 inches (400mm), and Z-axis travel is 11.8 inches (300mm). The machine is equipped with a Brother CNC-C00 proprietary control system fully compatible with Fanuc G-code. Rapid traverse rates reach 1,969 IPM (50 m/min) on X and Y axes and 2,205 IPM (56 m/min) on Z. The 14 or 21-tool automatic tool changer achieves tool-to-tool change in 0.7 seconds and chip-to-chip in 1.3 seconds. Overall machine dimensions are approximately 97 inches deep by 43 inches wide by 98 inches tall, with a machine weight of approximately 4,850 lbs — the lightest machine in the S-series lineup. Standard equipment includes coolant system and automatic lubrication. The S300X2 is the most compact model in the Speedio S series, designed for the smallest workpieces requiring the precision and speed of the Speedio platform in a minimal floor footprint.
