OKUMA MB 5000 H HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2016 OKUMA MB 5000 H is a high-performance horizontal machining center engineered for precision and efficiency in demanding production environments. It features a robust 40 HP spindle motor capable of reaching speeds up to 15,000 RPM, paired with a CAT 40 spindle interface for reliable tool holding and high torque transmission. The machine is equipped with a 146-station automatic tool changer, enabling rapid tool selection and minimizing downtime, with a tool change time of just 1.1 seconds. Dual pallets measuring 19.7” x 19.7” support a maximum pallet capacity of 1,100 lbs, allowing for uninterrupted machining and efficient part handling. The MB 5000 H offers generous travel in all axes—29.9” in X, Y, and Z—providing ample workspace for complex parts. An integrated full fourth axis rotary table delivers 0.001-degree accuracy, enhancing versatility for multi-sided and contouring operations. Extended tool length capability of 17.7” and a cap drain tank capacity of 20L further support extended unattended operation. The spindle nose to table center ranges from 5.31” to 35.24”, and the spindle center to table top ranges from 1.97” to 31.89”, accommodating a wide variety of workpiece sizes and configurations. Rapid traverse rates of 2,362 IPM in X, Y, and Z axes ensure swift positioning and reduced cycle times. The machine is controlled by the advanced OKUMA OSP-P200M CNC system, known for its reliability, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive programming capabilities, making the MB 5000 H a powerful solution for high-volume and high-precision machining applications.
