TOYODA FH-500J HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The 2018 Toyoda FH-500J is a high-performance horizontal machining center designed for precise, high-speed production. It features a 15,000 RPM CAT 40 spindle driven by a 30 HP motor, enabling robust machining capabilities. The machine is equipped with two pallets measuring 19.7" x 19.7" each, supporting a maximum load of 1,100 lbs with 1-degree pallet indexing and full 4th-axis rotation for complex part machining. The travel axes provide 28.7" on both X and Y, and 31.5" on Z, supported by rapid traverse rates up to 2,362 inches per minute for efficient material removal. Tool handling is managed via a 60-position ATC accommodating tools up to 5.9" diameter, 13.8" length, and 26.5 lbs weight, with fast tool change times of 1.3 seconds (tool-to-tool) and 3.5 seconds (chip-to-chip). The machine is CNC controlled by a Fanuc 31i-B5 system, providing advanced control and programming flexibility. Additional features include coolant-through-spindle at 1,000 PSI for enhanced chip evacuation and tool life, a chip conveyor for automated chip removal, and a substantial machine footprint (126.8" x 224.4" x 111.2") and weight (24,250 lbs) ensuring stability during heavy cutting. Power requirements stand at 45 KVA. The FH-500J offers a combination of speed, precision, and automation suitable for demanding manufacturing environments requiring high throughput and consistent accuracy.
