MORI SEIKI SV-500B/50 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The Mori Seiki SV-500B/50 is a robust three-axis vertical machining center engineered for versatile production and job shop applications. This machine features a spacious 43.3" x 23.6" work table with a 2,200-pound load capacity, accommodating mid-to-large components efficiently. The X, Y, and Z axes provide 40", 20.1", and 20.1" of travel respectively, delivering substantial working envelope for diverse machining tasks. Equipped with a 30-position automatic tool changer boasting a rapid 3.1-second chip-to-chip tool change time, the system maximizes productivity and minimizes non-cutting time. The spindle delivers 30 horsepower for 30-minute intervals and 25 continuous horsepower, reaching speeds up to 10,000 RPM with a CAT 50 taper, accommodating tools up to 4.9" in diameter and 11.8" in length. Rapid traverse rates of 1,259 IPM across all axes ensure swift positioning between operations. The spindle nose adjusts vertically from 5.9" to 26" above the table, providing flexibility for tall workpieces and complex fixturing. The MSC-501 control system, based on FANUC architecture, enables advanced CNC programming and multitasking capabilities. With an optional 4th-axis rotary table, users can expand functionality for rotational indexing and 4-axis machining. Weighing 17,120 pounds and measuring 102" x 93" x 113", this machine requires adequate floor space and proper foundation. The SV-500B/50 represents a reliable, production-proven platform suitable for metalworking shops demanding precision, speed, and operational flexibility.
