Howa MZN-P320-VCJ VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical CNC machining center features a robust table measuring 19.6 inches in length by 11.4 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 176 lbs. An optional index or rotary table can be added for enhanced versatility. The machine is equipped with a high-performance BT30 taper vertical spindle, delivering up to 10,000 RPM and a 30-minute rated power of 7.0 HP, ensuring efficient and precise material removal. Tooling is managed by a 16-position automatic tool changer (ATC), expandable to 24 tools, with rapid tool change times of 0.7 seconds and chip-to-chip time of 1.7 seconds. A standard 2-pallet changer further increases productivity. The machine operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z), with an optional fourth axis for complex machining tasks. Axis travels are 12.6 inches (X), 8.7 inches (Y), and 12.9 inches (Z), each supporting a maximum feed rate of 394 inches per minute and rapid traverse speeds of 1,968 inches per minute. This configuration provides high-speed, accurate, and repeatable performance for a wide range of milling applications, from prototyping to production.
