MITSUBISHI HEAVY IND. DCH50 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Mitsubishi Heavy Industries DCH50 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance, 4-axis CNC machine engineered for precision and efficiency in demanding production environments. Featuring a robust horizontal spindle with a #40 taper and a maximum speed of 14,000 RPM, it delivers 30 HP (30-minute rating) for powerful metal removal. The machine is equipped with an automatic tool changer (ATC) supporting up to 40 standard tools, expandable to 120, and achieves rapid tool changes with a chip-to-chip time of just 3.2 seconds. A standard 2-pallet changer enhances productivity by minimizing downtime during part loading and unloading. The worktable measures 19.69" x 19.69", supporting workpieces up to 1,102 lbs, and provides extensive travel ranges: 27.6" on the X-axis, 24" on the Y-axis, and 25.6" on the Z-axis, with a full 360° B-axis for versatile 4-axis machining. Maximum feed rates reach 393 ipm, while rapid traverse speeds hit 1,968 ipm across all linear axes, ensuring fast and accurate positioning. The DCH50 is designed for high rigidity, thermal stability, and long-term reliability, making it ideal for complex, high-tolerance applications in aerospace, automotive, and mold industries.
