Makino MAKINO L2 APC VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust table measuring 11.530 inches in length and 6.290 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 132 lbs. The standard support index table enhances versatility for complex machining tasks, while the absence of a rotary table focuses the machine on precise indexing operations. The vertical spindle is equipped with an HSK-A50 taper, delivering high rigidity and accuracy for demanding applications. It operates at a top speed of 16,000 RPM, with an optimal setting at 8,000 RPM, and is powered by a 20 HP (30-minute rating) motor, ensuring efficient material removal and excellent surface finishes. The tooling system accommodates up to 30 tools, with a rapid tool change time of just 3.5 seconds, maximizing productivity. A standard pallet changer with two pallets further increases throughput by allowing quick workpiece exchange. The machine offers four axes of motion—X, Y, Z, and A—with X, Y, and Z travels of 15.740", 11.810", and 11.810" respectively, and full 360° rotation on the A-axis. All axes support a maximum feed rate and rapid traverse of 1,890 inches per minute, enabling fast and precise movements for intricate part geometries. This configuration makes the machine ideal for high-precision, high-efficiency milling operations across various industries.
