Machining an aerospace frame component on a Mazak HCR-5000

The exceptionally productive 5-axis Mazak HCR-5000 horizontal machining center provides industries ranging from aerospace to medical with numerous technological innovations to improve small to mid-sized component machining.

Application: Aerospace frame component   |   Material: A5052   |   Size: Φ680 mm x 80 mm

Mazak HCR-5000: High speed simultaneous 5-axis horizontal machining center

In addition to its standard 12,000-rpm spindle, the Mazak HCR-5000 offers several high-speed spindle options up to 30,000 rpm, all of which feature integral spindle/motors.

The machine also has ballscrew core cooling to minimize thermal growth and achieve higher accuracy.

A 40-tool Auto Tool Changer, with optional magazines up to 160-tool capacity, further boosts productivity with a chip-to-chip tool change time of only 2.8 seconds.

Plus, automation options such as 2-pallet changers or the full Mazak Palletech systems can easily minimize non-cut time and improve overall process efficiency.
