Cincinnati Milacron MAXIM 500 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 1997 Cincinnati Milacron MAXIM 500 Horizontal Machining Center is a robust and versatile CNC machine designed for high-precision manufacturing applications. Featuring a twin-pallet automatic workchanger, this machining center enables efficient, uninterrupted production by allowing operators to set up the next workpiece while the current one is being machined. The machine is equipped with an Acramatic 950 CNC control system, providing advanced programming capabilities and reliable operation for complex machining tasks. The pallet size measures approximately 19.8 inches by 19.8 inches, supporting a maximum table load capacity of 2200 pounds, making it suitable for a wide range of workpiece sizes and weights. The spindle is powered by a high-torque AC motor, capable of reaching speeds up to 7000 RPM, and utilizes a CAT 50 taper for secure tool holding. The tool changer offers 40 positions, ensuring rapid and accurate tool changes to minimize downtime. Axis travels are generous, with X-axis travel of 29.5 inches, Y-axis travel of 27.6 inches, and Z-axis travel of 29.5 inches, providing ample workspace for large and intricate parts. The machine supports rigid tapping, spindle probing, and coolant-through-the-spindle capabilities, enhancing machining accuracy and tool life. Additional features include a chip conveyor for efficient swarf removal and a multi-setup support package for increased productivity. The MAXIM 500 is built for durability and precision, making it a reliable choice for demanding industrial environments.
