Howa MSN-P500H-VCJ VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical CNC machining center features a robust table measuring 25.5 inches in length by 14.1 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 176 lbs. An optional index table is available for enhanced versatility, while a rotary table is not included. The machine is equipped with a high-performance vertical spindle using a BT30 taper, delivering a maximum speed of 15,000 RPM and a 30-minute power rating of 5.0 HP, ensuring efficient and precise cutting across a range of materials. Tooling is managed via an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 16 tools, expandable to 24 tools as an option. Tool changes are rapid, with a tool-to-tool time of 0.8 seconds and a chip-to-chip time of 2.3 seconds, minimizing downtime. A standard pallet changer with two pallets further increases productivity by allowing continuous operation. The machine operates on three axes (X, Y, Z), with X-axis travel of 19.7 inches, Y-axis travel of 12.6 inches, and Z-axis travel of 12.9 inches. Maximum feed rates and rapid traverse speeds are both set at 394 inches per minute and 1,417 inches per minute, respectively, across all axes, enabling fast and accurate machining cycles. This configuration is ideal for high-precision milling, drilling, and tapping applications in demanding production environments.
