Technical Description
The Okuma Multus U3000 is a high-performance horizontal machining center designed for multitasking with dual main spindles and sub-spindle, each delivering up to 5,000 RPM and 30 HP for robust turning capabilities. It supports a maximum turning diameter of 25.69 inches and a turning length up to 39.37 inches, with a 12-inch main spindle chuck diameter and a 2.63-inch maximum bar capacity. The machine features two primary tool carriers: an automatic tool changer (ATC) capable of handling up to 40 turning and 40 rotary tools with rotary tooling running at 12,000 RPM and 30 HP, and a secondary turret supporting 12 turning and 12 rotary tools with up to 6,000 RPM and 7.5 HP. It allows simultaneous use of two cutting tools, enhancing productivity.
Equipped with 5-axis machining capability (X, Y, Z, B, and C), the U3000 provides precise and flexible machining, supported by X, Y, and Z-axis travels of 25.39", 9.84", and 43.31" respectively, and rapid traverse rates up to 1,968 inches per minute. The machine includes standard mill/drill functions on- and off-center, with integrated C- and Y-axis controls for complex machining tasks. This configuration enables efficient high-precision turning and milling operations, making the Multus U3000 suitable for complex, multi-step manufacturing processes in aerospace, automotive, and general machining industries.
