5-axis Machining Centers

VARIAXIS i

5-axis machining centers with a wide variety of spindles and extensive automation equipment
  • Multi-face machining and simultaneous 5-axis machining with one chucking
  • Wide variety of table sizes, spindles, and automation systems
  • Turning capability for further process integration (i-700T, i-800T, i-1050T)

Machining from raw material to final product in just one machine

Higher productivity with process integration by turning and milling

  • Reduction of setup process 
  • Significant reduction in production lead time 
  • Reduction of fixture and equipment costs 
  • Reduction of machine installation space 
  • Minimization of cumulative errors by process integration to ensure high accuracy

High rigidity for long-term high-accuracy machining

Full gantry construction without overhang

Machine construction was designed utilizing FEM analysis. Vibration is minimized during acceleration / deacceleration to ensure high accuracy machining stability. (Note: The construction of VARIAXIS i-500 is different.)

Built-in motor spindle

Built-in motor minimizes vibration during high speed operation. For high accuracy machining, temperature controlled cooling oil is circulated around the spindle bearings and headstock to minimize any thermal change to the spindle.

High-accuracy 5-axis calibration MAZA-CHECK

Position misalignment and incline of the rotary axes can automatically be measured and compensated to realize high accuracy 5-axis machining. The centers of rotation of both the C- and A-axis can be automatically measured and compensated.

Automated system best suited for multi-product processing

2-pallet changer

The next workpiece can be setup while machining is in progress, improving productivity.

MPP (MULTI PALLET POOL)

MPP (MULTI PALLET POOL) is a space-saving multi-stage pallet stocker system developed in response to the growing demand for automation. As the most suitable automation system for multi-product machining, the system dramatically improves productivity.

PMC NEO

PMC NEO is management software for automated operation of PALLETECH system. With a redesigned graphical user interface and the adoption of 3D images, it has become easier to grasp the operational status of the system. The convenience of data input and registration has also been improved.
By displaying work and tool lists in chronological order, the Setup Guide function assists the operator.
