MAKINO G10 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Makino G10 is a 5-axis horizontal machining center engineered for high-precision, complex component manufacturing. It features a robust #50 taper horizontal spindle with a top speed of 8,000 RPM and a 60 HP motor (30-minute rating), delivering high torque suitable for heavy cutting operations. The machine's table measures 31.5" by 31.5" and supports workpieces up to 1,760 lbs, enabling the machining of substantial parts. Axis travels include 66.93" on X, 41.33" on Y, and 55.11" on Z, all with rapid traverse and max feed rates of up to 1,965 inches per minute, providing expansive work envelope and high-speed positioning for efficient material removal. The B-axis offers continuous 270-degree rotation for complex angular machining. The 77-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) expands optionally to 180 tools, facilitating extended unattended operation and diverse tooling options. The Makino G10’s horizontal spindle orientation combined with its 5-axis capability enhances chip evacuation and rigidity, optimizing it for aerospace, automotive, and heavy industrial applications requiring multi-sided machining with tight tolerances. This machine balances high-speed machining productivity with heavy-duty cutting, leveraging Makino’s reputation for precision and reliability in demanding manufacturing environments.
