LEADWELL MH-500 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The LEADWELL MH-500 Horizontal Machining Center is engineered for high-precision, heavy-duty machining operations, featuring a robust 50-taper spindle designed for maximum rigidity and cutting performance. With an X-axis travel of 29.5 inches, Y-axis travel of 25.6 inches, and Z-axis travel of 27.6 inches, the MH-500 provides a generous work envelope suitable for a wide range of part sizes. The machine is powered by a 25-horsepower spindle motor, delivering ample torque for demanding milling tasks, and operates at a maximum spindle speed of 6,000 RPM, ensuring efficient material removal rates across ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The MH-500 is equipped with a 40-tool automatic tool changer, enabling rapid tool exchange and minimizing non-cutting time for improved productivity. The pallet system measures 19.7 inches by 19.7 inches, supporting versatile workholding configurations and facilitating easy part loading and unloading. The horizontal spindle orientation allows for effective chip evacuation and consistent machining accuracy, particularly for complex, multi-sided parts. Built with a rigid frame and precision linear guides, the MH-500 ensures long-term reliability, dimensional stability, and superior surface finishes. This machining center is ideal for applications requiring high throughput, accuracy, and versatility in automotive, aerospace, mold, and general manufacturing environments.
