HURON EX 20 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This high-performance vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 31.5 x 27.6 inches, capable of supporting workpieces up to 2,550 lbs, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications. The machine is equipped with a vertical spindle utilizing an HSK A63 taper, offering a standard maximum speed of 14,000 RPM and an optional upgrade to 24,000 RPM, ensuring versatility for both high-torque and high-speed machining tasks. The spindle delivers a 30-minute power rating of 34 HP, providing sustained performance during demanding operations. Tool management is handled by an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a 32-tool capacity and a rapid tool change time of 10 seconds (chip-to-chip: 12 seconds), enhancing productivity and minimizing downtime. The machine supports 5-axis movement, including X, Y, Z, and B axes, with extensive travel ranges: X-axis 63 inches, Y-axis 27.6 inches, Z-axis 31.5 inches, and B-axis rotation up to 200 degrees. All axes offer a maximum feed rate and rapid traverse speed of 1,181 inches per minute, enabling fast and precise material removal. This configuration is well-suited for complex, multi-sided machining of large and heavy workpieces in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and mold making, where accuracy, rigidity, and efficiency are critical.
