MS MACHINING HMC-15 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The MS Machining HMC-15 is a 4-axis horizontal machining center designed for heavy-duty and precise machining applications. It features a **22.5" x 22.5" work table** with a maximum workpiece capacity of **3,000 lbs**, supported by a standard indexed table with an optional rotary table. The horizontal spindle has a **50 taper** and operates at speeds up to **3,000 RPM**, powered by a 30 HP motor rated for 30 minutes, suitable for robust cutting tasks. Tool handling is managed via an automatic tool changer (ATC) with **48 standard tools**, expandable to 76, enabling extended unattended operations. Optional pallet changers support 2 pallets by default, upgradeable to 4 pallets, optimizing workflow efficiency. The machine’s axes provide travels of 30" on X, 28" on Y, and 20" on Z, alongside a **360° B-axis** rotary axis for versatile part positioning and multi-face machining. With its rigid horizontal spindle setup, ATC, and pallet changer options, the HMC-15 is tailored to achieve high productivity and precision on medium-to-large size workpieces in demanding industrial environments. The no-delay tool change chip time indicates prompt tool swaps, contributing to minimal cycle times. This machining center combines robust construction with automation-ready features, suitable for complex machining requirements in metalworking industries.
