Machining Systems MS 200 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2006 Machining Systems MS 200 is a robust horizontal machining center engineered for precision manufacturing and heavy-duty production environments. This four-axis CNC machine features a 39" x 39" indexing table with a maximum workpiece capacity of 10,000 lbs, enabling the processing of substantial components in a single setup. The machine is equipped with a 30 HP motorized spindle delivering speeds up to 10,000 RPM, providing sufficient power and torque for both roughing operations on difficult alloys and finishing cuts requiring precision. The machine's travel dimensions—X-axis 120", Y-axis 58", and Z-axis 58"—allow for extended workpiece lengths and complex geometries, while the extended Z-travel maximizes accessibility to part ends without repositioning. The spindle utilizes a CAT 50 taper with a 48-tool automatic tool changer, reducing cycle times through rapid 8-second tool changes and 13-second chip-to-chip times. The machine incorporates heavy ribbed cast iron construction for structural rigidity and thermal stability, critical for maintaining tolerances throughout extended production runs. Standard control options include rigid tapping, 400 tool offsets with wear adjustments, and programmable spindle orientation capabilities. The machine's footprint of approximately 25.5' x 27.8' accommodates typical shop floor spaces while delivering consistent performance for aerospace, automotive, and industrial component manufacturing. Optional configurations include extended axis travels up to 144", contouring tables with 360,000 positions, and expanded tool storage capacities for maximum operational flexibility.
