TOYODA FH500J HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Toyoda FH500J is a high-speed, 4-axis horizontal machining center designed for precision and efficiency in metalworking. It features a 19.68" x 19.68" table capable of supporting workpieces weighing up to 1,540 lbs. The horizontal spindle operates at up to 15,000 RPM with a CAT40 taper, powered by a 30 HP motor rated for 30 minutes, ensuring robust cutting performance. The machine includes an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a 40-tool capacity, offering rapid tool-to-tool change times of 0.9 seconds and chip-to-chip times of 2.7 seconds, optimizing throughput. Standard equipment includes a pallet changer with two pallets, enabling continuous operation and enhanced productivity. The FH500J provides travels of 28.74" in the X and Y axes and 33.46" in the Z axis, all with rapid traverse and maximum feed rates of 2,362 inches per minute. The spindle incorporates a direct-drive table with full 360° rotation on the B axis, enabling complex 4-axis machining with precise positioning. The machine's compact footprint, combined with its advanced rigidity and rapid feed rates, make it suitable for high-mix, high-volume manufacturing environments requiring tight tolerances and fast cycle times. This machining center integrates advanced control systems and durable construction, delivering high accuracy and consistent performance for aerospace, automotive, and general machining applications.
