YCM H500B HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The YCM H500B Horizontal Machining Center is a high-precision, CNC-controlled machine designed for complex and high-volume machining tasks. It features a 3-axis travel of 27.559 inches (X), 25.591 inches (Y), and 25.591 inches (Z), enabling versatile part shaping within a sizable work envelope. Powered by a 29.5-horsepower spindle, it operates at up to 6,000 RPM, supported by a BBT50 taper for heavy cutting and rigid tool holding. The machine’s table measures 19.685 inches square, capable of supporting pallets of the same dimension, with a robust load capacity suitable for demanding machining operations. It incorporates a 40-tool automatic tool changer, enhancing productivity and reducing downtime during multi-tool processes. The rigid construction includes a T-shaped one-piece base, dual-wall ribbed columns, and pre-tensioned ballscrews for high rigidity, accuracy, and thermal stability. The machine achieves rapid feed rates up to 30 m/min while maintaining precision thanks to its moving column design and isolated direct-drive spindle with large diameter ceramic bearings. The FANUC MXP-200i CNC control unit enables sophisticated toolpath execution and process optimization. This model is optimized for superior chip evacuation, energy efficiency, and versatility across materials including metals, plastics, and composites, making it suitable for industries requiring high surface finish quality and reliable performance in heavy-duty horizontal machining applications.
