Howa MZN-P320-VC VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust table measuring 24.8 inches in length by 9.8 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 700 lbs. An optional index or rotary table can be added for enhanced versatility. The vertical spindle utilizes a BT30 taper and achieves a maximum speed of 10,000 RPM, delivering 7.0 HP (30-minute rating) for high-performance metal cutting. Tooling is managed via an automatic tool changer (ATC) with standard capacity for 16 tools, expandable to 24 tools if required. Tool change time is exceptionally fast at 0.7 seconds, with a chip-to-chip time of 1.7 seconds, ensuring efficient production cycles. The machine operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z), with an optional fourth axis for advanced machining needs. Axis travels are 12.6 inches (X), 8.7 inches (Y), and 12.9 inches (Z), all supporting a maximum feed rate of 394 inches per minute and rapid traverse speeds up to 1,968 inches per minute for swift positioning. This configuration provides high rigidity, precision, and speed, making it suitable for demanding milling applications in tooling, mold, and aerospace industries.
