MAZAK VARIAXIS 500-5X VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machine offers a robust machining envelope with travel dimensions of 20.08 inches on both X and Y axes, and 18.11 inches on the Z-axis. It features a powerful 22.4 kW spindle capable of speeds up to 12,000 RPM, delivering high precision and efficient material removal. The machine includes a 60-tool automatic tool changer (ATC), ensuring versatile and uninterrupted machining operations. The rotary axes provide an A-axis tilt range from -110° to +30° and full 360° rotation on the C-axis, enabling complex multi-axis machining. The worktable measures 15.75 by 19.69 inches, supporting a maximum load of 661 lbs and accommodating workpieces up to 15.94 inches in height, length of 19.5 inches, and width of 15.94 inches. The spindle nose-to-table distance of 25.59 inches allows for machining of relatively tall components. Rapid traverse rates on X, Y, and Z axes are high at 1,969 inches per minute, facilitating fast positioning and cycle times. Overall machine dimensions are 110" x 115" x 109", and it weighs 15,432 lbs, indicating a stable and rigid structure suitable for heavy-duty precision machining tasks. This configuration supports advanced multi-axis milling, making it ideal for complex geometries and high-precision components in aerospace, automotive, and tooling applications.
