HYUNDAI KIA HS500I HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The HYUNDAI KIA HS500i is a high-performance horizontal machining center featuring a 19.6" x 19.6" table and substantial axis travels of 33.5" (X), 27.6" (Y), and 29.5" (Z). It is equipped with a CAT 40 spindle taper capable of reaching a maximum spindle speed of 15,000 RPM, powered by a robust spindle motor delivering up to 25 to 33.5 HP depending on the configuration. The machine includes a 60-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) that supports efficient machining cycles and enhances productivity. Controlled by a Fanuc 21i-M CNC system, the HS500i offers precise axis movements with a least indexing angle of 0.001", enabling fine machining accuracy. The pallet size matches the table size at 19.6" x 19.6", with a maximum pallet load capacity of approximately 1,102 lbs, supporting heavy workpieces up to 500 kg. Additional features include high-pressure coolant delivery, thru-spindle coolant, and a chip conveyor system for efficient chip evacuation. The machine supports four-axis machining operations, making it suitable for complex and precision milling applications. Its rigid construction and roller guide ways provide stability and durability for consistent machining quality. Overall, the HYUNDAI KIA HS500i is designed for medium to large batch production, offering fast tool changes, high spindle speeds, and precise control for demanding horizontal machining tasks.
