Heavy-Duty HMC Designed for Aerospace and Power Generation
August 1, 2014
Mitsui Seiki will demonstrate a representative of its line of large capacity, heavy-duty machining centers. "The HU100-5X is aimed at a variety of manufacturing industries interested in versatile equipment for heavier applications, such as aerospace, power generation, refrigeration and compressor, mold and die, and off-road equipment," said a company spokesperson. "All of these industries have fundamental common requirements: machine rigidity, stiffness and high accuracy."
The HU100-5X machine that will be at IMTS 2014 is designed for larger aerospace and power generation parts featuring an X, Y, Z work zone capacity of 1,500 mm x 1,200 mm x 1,200 mm. The machine accommodates a weight up to 4,400 lbs. (2,000 kg). Other features include maximum spindle torque of 2,000 ft-lbs., HSK 125A tool taper, dual pallet changer, an automatic workpiece/fixture measuring and compensation system, non-contact laser tool setting device, 3D tool compensation, dynamic feature offset and FANUC 30iM control.
"High accuracy and ultra rigidity come from the builder's attention to the basic structure, 3D FEM Design, hand scraping of all castings for geometry and frequency tuning, plus hardened and ground steel box ways," said the spokesperson. All critical components for the machines are designed, manufactured and quality controlled in-house."
