High Productivity and Automation Flexibility



Okuma America Corporation, the U.S.-based sales and service affiliate of Okuma Corporation, has announced the MA-600HIII, a rigid and accurate horizontal machining center (HMC) equipped with a powerful spindle.

The MA-600HIII's new 10k RPM standard spindle effectively handles a wide range of applications, from heavy-duty to high-feed machining. The improved spindle tool change time is just 0.4 seconds coupled with the now-standard through-spindle coolant suction feature, which removes residual coolant inside the tool and spindle.

This HMC has a larger work envelope with added longer X-axis travel to provide higher floor space productivity. "Weighing in at a massive 55,000 lbs. and featuring a thermal stability of seven microns, this machine has the stability and rigidity needed for consistent precision machining," said a company spokesperson.

The MA-600HIII features an enhanced coolant management system, more efficient workspace design to prevent chip accumulation and improved chip evacuation functionality. This includes linear ball screw cooling for the X-, Y- and Z-axes. This level of reliability maximizes uptime and allows for long periods of unmanned machine operation.

The MA-600HIII's flexible design allows for a variety of automation applications. The workspace area can equip up to seven part loading/unloading ports or up to eight workholding clamp ports, which can help eliminate the need for complicated circuit arrangements for hydraulic applications. Up to 16 ports are available in the machine's setup station, expanding part capacity and the possibilities for robotic applications.

The standard sludgeless tank suppresses the accumulation of coolant sludge for stable operation of the machine. According to the company, it reduces the need for time-consuming tank cleanings, which further increases the amount of unmanned machining time.
