HARDINGE DT480 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This CNC machining center features precise multi-axis control with an X-axis travel of 18.90", Y-axis travel of 15.75", and Z-axis travel of 16.93", enabling complex 3D machining tasks. It is equipped with a high-speed spindle capable of reaching 10,000 RPM, utilizing a BT30 taper for versatile tool compatibility and enhanced rigidity during operation. The machine includes an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a 20-tool magazine capacity, allowing for efficient, uninterrupted machining cycles. Controlled by a Fanuc CNC system, known for its reliability, high precision, and advanced features such as conversational programming and integrated safety functions, this setup ensures optimal performance and repeatability. The machine is 4th axis ready, supporting future integration of rotary or indexing devices to expand machining capabilities for complex geometries. A standard coolant system is incorporated for effective heat management and chip removal during cutting processes. Included in the tooling package is a rigid tap holder, supporting threading operations with enhanced accuracy and tool stability. This configuration is ideal for precision manufacturing sectors requiring high accuracy and flexibility in milling operations. The synergy of Fanuc control technology with robust mechanical specifications underscores the machine’s suitability for demanding CNC milling applications.
