HNK HFB-180 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The HNK HFB-180 Horizontal Machining Center is a heavy-duty CNC machine designed for precision horizontal boring and milling with a large worktable measuring 98.43" x 98.43", capable of supporting workpieces up to 88,000 lbs. It features a horizontal spindle with a BT50 taper, operating up to 1,200 RPM, driven by a 100 HP motor rated for 30-minute operation. The machine utilizes a 4-axis configuration (X, Y, Z axes plus rotary/tool changer) with travels of 157.48" (X-axis), 98.43" (Y-axis), and 39.37" (Z-axis), with optional extended travel ranges. The tool carrier is an automatic tool changer (ATC), enhancing manufacturing efficiency and tool management. The machine's structure is optimized for rigidity and precision, often incorporating Meehanite cast iron construction and hydrostatic slides on the X and Y axes for heavy cutting capabilities and accurate positioning. The HFB-180 is designed with enhanced stability for machining large, heavy components in aerospace, energy, and heavy equipment industries, supporting complex machining tasks with high torque and power. The spindle speed, tool capacity, and robust construction align with industrial demands for floor-type boring mills and horizontal machining centers suitable for large-scale manufacturing.
