Double Column Machining Centers

Solid performance achieved by advanced structural designs

  • Double column structure handles heavy-duty cutting
    Double-column construction with square columns maintains good rigidity with respect to vertical loads, horizontal loads, and torsion for heavy-duty cutting with high accuracy.

  • Elevating crossrail guideway
    The elevating crossrail has sufficient length and a structure for accuracy and long life with no "snaking" movement.
    Elevating crossrail guideway
  • Spindlehead provides both high speed and high accuracy (ram saddle guideway)
    The spindlehead guide has a wide, highly rigid rectangular cross section, and is supported by a deadweight balancer via rollers on the crossrail. This gives high speed, high accuracy movements and high quality machined surfaces.
    Spindlehead provides both high speed and high accuracy (ram saddle guideway)
  • Smooth, accurate positioning
    Table guideway has roller guide system
    The weight of the table and workpiece is supported with roller bearings on hardened and ground surfaces. Movement is not affected by weight changes from heavy workpiece loads, enabling light, smooth movements and accurate positioning.
    Layout includes the drive system (ball screw) in the table center with a narrow width between the center guides, to achieve outstanding linear motion straightness and long-term stability.

Automation for highly productive and flexible performance
Full array of heads
All types of cutting in all types of shapes can be machined by changing the wide array of heads.
Many different processes can be performed in auto operation with the auto tool changer (ATC) and auto head changer (AAC).
Automation for highly productive and flexible performance
Fast NC-ATC
One arm performs the changes for both the horizontal and vertical spindles. The next tool to be used, regardless of the spindle location, is brought to the standby position during cutting. This simultaneous operation greatly reduces tool-to-tool time.
ATC is available for 30°angular heads and universal index heads (B/C axis) in addition to extension heads and 90° angular heads.
