MAS HMC-500 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The MAS HMC-500 is a robust horizontal machining center designed for precision and productivity in metalworking applications. It features a worktable measuring 24.8" x 19.7" capable of supporting workpieces up to 1,210 lbs, accommodating a wide range of part sizes. The horizontal spindle has a #40 taper standard, with an optional #50 taper, delivering a high-speed rotation up to 15,000 RPM (with a 10,000 RPM option) powered by a 50 HP motor rated for 30 minutes, enabling efficient high-speed cutting and superior torque performance. The machine includes an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 60 tools and an optional expansion up to 120 tools, improving operational efficiency and reducing downtime. It operates with 4 axes, including a full 360° B-axis rotation for complex geometries and multi-side machining. The axes travels are substantial with 30" in X, 26" in both Y and Z directions, allowing for versatile work envelope coverage and rapid positioning. The MAS HMC-500 integrates precision linear guides and ball screw drives for high rigidity, accuracy, and smooth motion control, ensuring excellent surface finish and tight tolerances. Its horizontal spindle orientation supports efficient chip evacuation and workpiece clamping for stable machining. The combination of a powerful spindle, extensive tooling capacity, and versatile axis configuration makes the MAS HMC-500 suitable for machining complex components in automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing sectors.
