MORI SEIKI MH-50 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The MORI SEIKI MH-50 is a robust horizontal machining center equipped with a 25 HP spindle motor delivering up to 6,000 RPM through a CAT 50 taper, supporting heavy-duty machining. It features a generous travel envelope with 31.5 inches on the X-axis, 25.6 inches on the Y-axis, and 29.5 inches on the Z-axis, providing versatile multi-axis machining capabilities across four axes. The machine includes a 60-tool Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) to optimize production efficiency, with maximum tool dimensions of approximately 4.7 inches in diameter and 19.7 inches in length, and a maximum tool weight of 66 lbs. The workpiece is mounted on a 19.7" x 19.7" pallet capable of supporting up to 2,200 lbs, with a fast pallet change time around 9 seconds and precise pallet indexing at 0.001 degrees, enabling high accuracy and rapid setup changes. Controlled via a FANUC 15M CNC system, it offers advanced programmability and user interface with a 9-inch monochrome display. Additional features include a fourth-axis rotary table, through-spindle coolant, a Renishaw touch probe for precise setup and inspection, a turbo chip conveyor for efficient chip removal, and enduring box way construction for machine rigidity. The overall machine dimensions are approximately 184.1" L x 104.7" W x 106.3" H, with a weight of around 30,000 lbs, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments requiring precision horizontal milling and turning operations. Rapid traverse rates reach up to 787 IPM to maximize cycle times during non-cutting moves. This machine is ideal for machining medium to large workpieces with high precision and tool capacity.
