Mazak HCN-6000 II HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2008 Mazak HCN-6000 II is a CNC horizontal machining center equipped with a Mazatrol Matrix Nexus control system, designed for high-precision heavy-duty machining operations. This machine features a high-torque spindle configuration optimized for demanding material removal applications on steel and cast iron workpieces. The HCN-6000 II utilizes a 4-axis configuration with a BT50 tool shank interface and accommodates up to 120-160 tool stations in its automatic tool changer, enabling extended production runs with minimal manual intervention. The spindle delivers 37 kilowatts of power at 10,000 RPM in standard configuration, with maximum torque output of 350 N·m at the 30-minute rating, making it suitable for aggressive cutting operations. The machine features a 500mm × 500mm pallet with a maximum workpiece capacity of 1,000 kilograms, providing substantial rigidity for large-scale component machining. Travel axes span 800mm across X, Y, and Z directions, with rapid traverse rates reaching 60 meters per minute for efficient cycle times. Premium features include Renishaw probing for automated workpiece inspection, coolant-through-spindle high-pressure systems for superior chip evacuation, hydraulic clamping for secure workholding, and an automatic tool setter for precise tool offset management. The integrated Mazatrol Matrix Nexus CNC control simplifies complex part programming while maintaining tight tolerances. With its substantial footprint of approximately 274" × 111" × 131" and weighing 36,900 pounds, the HCN-6000 II represents a serious production machine capable of delivering consistent, repeatable results in manufacturing environments.
