+GF+ MIKRON MILL P 500 U VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machine tool features a compact footprint with dimensions of 19.68 inches (X), 23.62 inches (Y), and 17.71 inches (Z), providing a balanced workspace suitable for precision machining. It houses a 48.24 horsepower spindle capable of reaching speeds up to 20,000 RPM, enabling high-speed machining operations with excellent material removal rates and surface finishes. The spindle is equipped with a 30-position automatic tool changer (ATC) using the precision HSK-A63 taper interface, known for its high rigidity and excellent repeatability, which ensures optimal tool clamping and minimal runout. Control is provided by a HEIDENHAIN CNC system, specifically the TNC 640 or 840D si, which supports advanced multi-axis interpolation and flexible machining strategies including milling, turning, and grinding. The TNC 640/840D si controls offer digital servo drives, adaptive feed rates, and integrated tool and pallet management, facilitating versatile and efficient production workflows. This control system also supports high-speed 5-axis machining, dynamic collision monitoring, and comprehensive tool data management for enhanced accuracy and reliability. The combination of the HSK-A63 interface and the HEIDENHAIN CNC makes this machine ideal for high-precision, high-productivity applications in aerospace, mold making, and complex component manufacturing.
