OKK HM500S/50 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The OKK HM500S/50 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance CNC machine designed for precision and efficiency in demanding manufacturing environments. Featuring a robust horizontal spindle with a CAT 50 taper, it delivers a maximum spindle speed of 12,000 rpm (with an optional 8,000 rpm configuration) and a 30-minute power rating of 40 HP, ensuring strong cutting performance for a wide range of materials. The machine’s table measures 19.68" x 19.68", providing a stable work support surface, and comes standard with an index table for enhanced versatility. Tooling is managed by an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 40 tools, expandable to 60 tools for increased flexibility. Optional pallet changer support allows for up to two pallets, improving productivity through reduced non-cutting time. The HM500S/50 offers three-axis control (X, Y, Z) with travel distances of 24.80", 24.41", and 27.95" respectively, enabling the machining of complex, large-scale parts. Maximum feed rates reach 1,575 ipm, while rapid traverse rates achieve 2,126 ipm across all axes, significantly reducing cycle times. The machine’s design emphasizes rigidity, speed, and reliability, making it ideal for high-precision production in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and tooling.
