KAAST HBW 110 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Kaast HBW 110 Horizontal Machining Center is a robust 5-axis CNC machine designed for heavy-duty precision machining of large workpieces up to 13,200 lbs. It features a horizontal BT50 spindle capable of 2,500 RPM with a 30 HP motor (30-minute rating), delivering high torque via a ZF gearbox for optimum cutting performance. The machine's work table measures 55" x 49.2" with an optional upgrade to 63" x 55", supported by a standard rotary table that provides precise 360° indexing with a resolution of 0.001°, enabling complex machining tasks. The travels for the X, Y, and Z axes extend up to 59", with options up to 118", 78", and 59", respectively, each allowing rapid traverse rates of 393 inches per minute. Tool handling is flexible, with a 32-position automatic tool changer (ATC) available as an option, along with an optional pallet changer to enhance production efficiency. The machine employs hardened, precision-ground guideways and uses mechanical interlocking for safe operation, ensuring longevity and accuracy in demanding industrial environments. It is controlled by proven CNC systems, such as FANUC or Siemens, enabling highly accurate 3-axis control, with additional axes managed for five-axis machining. The design includes features like telescopic covers for guideway protection and optional workpiece and tool measurement systems. Overall, the HBW 110 is engineered for stability, precision, and flexibility in machining large-scale components requiring heavy cutting and multi-axis operations.
