Horizontal Machining Center with New W-Axis for Cutting Exotic Materials



"The hallmark of the MA-12500HW is its ability to provide a good balance of speed and cutting power for machining difficult-to-machine materials, cast iron and aluminum alloys," said an Okuma spokesperson. "This makes it well suited for large part aerospace machining." The W-axis allows for a longer tool stroke to machine complex, difficult to reach part features. It has a maximum tool length of 1,100 mm.

Built on an integral bed and base, and designed with reinforcing ribs for increased stability and load carrying capacity, the MA-12500H incorporates Okuma's exclusive Thermo-Friendly Concept to achieve maximum thermal stability and accuracy. Standardly-equipped with a 50 taper 6,000 RPM, 60/50 HP spindle, it is also available with either a 12,000 RPM wide range spindle or 4,500 RPM heavy-duty spindle.

Key features of Okuma's MA-12500HW horizontal machining center:

  • Maximum load capacity of 11,000 pounds
  • Rapid traverse (X, Y, Z) of 1,653 IPM
  • Maximum part size: 78.72" diameter x 58.07" high
  • Axis travels: X-86.61", Y-58.07", Z-64.96"
  • .001 degree B-axis rotary table
  • 49.21" square pallet
  • Parallel-type 2 pallet APC
  • 81-tool matrix ATC standard, up to 171-tool matrix optional.
