HMC with Available Pallet Pool Productivity



The EC-400 horizontal machining center (HMC) from Haas Automation, Inc., is faster, more rigid, has a larger work cube and offers more tool capacity than its predecessor. When equipped with the available integrated, 6-station pallet pool and 100+1 side-mount tool changer, the EC-400 brings true lights-out machining capability to small- and medium-sized manufacturers and production shops.

Designed for high-volume production and unattended operation, the EC-400 features 22" x 25" x 22" (559 mm x 635 mm x 559 mm) travels, and comes equipped with a twin pallet changer with 400 mm pallets, full 4-axis pallet indexing and an 8,100 RPM inline direct-drive spindle. Other standard features include a 30+1 tool side-mount tool changer, 1400 IPM (35.6 m/min) rapids, 1 GB of program memory, and built-in Ethernet and USB connectivity. To remove chips from the enclosure quickly and efficiently, the EC-400 has a high-volume coolant system and belt-type chip conveyor.

For added performance, optional high-speed spindles are available up to 15,000 RPM. The Haas-built spindles are powered by a 30 HP vector drive, and feature an inline, direct-drive system that couples the spindle directly to the motor to reduce heat, increase power transmission and provide enhanced surface finishes. For extended part runs and lights-out operation, tool capacity can be expanded with optional 50+1 or 100+1 tool side-mount tool changers.

The EC-400's available 6-station pallet pool is designed for high-volume production runs, or high-mix/low-volume machining. The pallets can be scheduled individually according to priority and sequencing requirements, allowing high-priority parts to be machined first or staged more often. Completed pallets are returned automatically to the holding location, or can be sequenced to a protected operator station for immediate unloading and re-loading. The pallet pool can be ordered with the machine, or is available for field installation at a later time on machines equipped with a 50+1 or 100+1 side-mount tool changer.

"Like all new Haas machines, the EC-400 features the powerful, easy-to-use Haas Next Generation Control, which is faster, smarter and better than ever," said a Haas spokesperson. It is Industry 4.0-ready, with built-in Ethernet connectivity, available WiFi and standard HaasConnect mobile machine monitoring.
