KAAST AXIOM 500 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The KAAST Axiom 500 Horizontal Machining Center is a robust, high-precision CNC machine designed for machining large workpieces with a maximum spindle turning diameter of 39.000" and turning length up to 39.400". It features a single main spindle equipped with a powerful 40 HP motor and operates at speeds up to 1,200 RPM, with an optional speed of 660 RPM for optimized torque. The spindle chuck diameter measures 21.000", supporting heavy-duty machining tasks. The machine accommodates up to 12 tools on its primary tool carrier, allowing efficient tool changes for turning operations, but supports only single simultaneous cutting tool use. The machine operates on a two-axis system with X and Y axes having 20.000" travel each and the Z axis with a standard travel of 39.000", extendable optionally to 604.000". All axes offer rapid traverse rates and maximum feed rates of 197 inches per minute, ensuring fast and precise positioning. This machining center is built for stability and versatility, suitable for complex horizontal turning and milling tasks that require high horsepower and torque at lower speeds. Its spacious travels and tool capacity support a broad range of manufacturing applications, emphasizing heavy, large-part processing with rigid construction and precision control.
