  • X-axis travel: 720 mm (HMC-500) to 1700 mm (HMC-1000).
  • Y-axis travel: 650 mm to 1400 mm.
  • Z-axis travel: 650 mm to 1525 mm.
  • Table dimensions increase from 500x500 mm to 1000x1000 mm.
  • Each machine has 2 tables with uniform load capacities from 800 kg to 2500 kg.
  • Workpiece capacity ranges from 700 mm diameter/800 mm height up to 1800 mm diameter/1300 mm height.
  • Table indexing time for 0 to 90 degrees is typically 2.5 seconds, except 5 seconds for the largest model.

Spindle and Motor Performance

  • Spindle speeds: 15,000 rpm for HMC-500 (#40), 10,000 rpm for other models.
  • Spindle speed changes in 2 steps (MS).
  • Spindle nose taper: BT-40 for HMC-500 (#40), BT-50 for others.
  • Spindle motor power ranges from 11/15 kW (HMC-500 #40) up to 25/30 kW (other models) with 30-minute and continuous ratings.
  • Feed motors for axes range from 4 kW to 7 kW depending on axis and model.
  • Hydraulic pump motor is consistently 3.75 kW across models.
  • Spindle cooler motor and coolant pump motor specifications are consistent across models.

Feed and Speed

  • Rapid travel rates and cutting speeds are standardized at 10 m/min for all axes.

Tooling and Automatic Tool Changer (ATC)

  • Tool shank types: BT-40/CAT-40 for HMC-500 (#40), BT-50/CAT-50 for others.
  • Maximum tool length ranges from 350 mm to 450 mm.
  • Maximum tool weight up to 20 kg.
  • Tool selection uses the shortest distance absolute method.
  • Tool change times: 3 seconds (tool-to-tool), 8 seconds (chip-to-chip).

Pallet System

  • Pallet change methods: Rotate method for most models, parallel method for HMC-1000.
  • Pallet change time varies from 18 seconds (HMC-500) to 90 seconds (HMC-1000).
  • Multi-pallet system available with 6 pallets (example given for HMC-500).

Power Supply and Utilities

  • Power supply: AC 200V/220V with 55 kVA capacity.
  • Compressed air supply: 0.4 to 0.6 MPa at 500 l/min.
  • Hydraulic unit tank capacity: 120 liters.
  • Spindle cooler tank capacity: 36 liters.
  • Coolant tank capacity ranges from 370 liters to 800 liters depending on model.

Accuracy and Standards

  • Positioning accuracy (ISO 10791): 0.008 mm to 0.02 mm depending on model.
  • Repeatability (ISO 10791): 0.006 mm to 0.02 mm.
  • Positioning accuracy (JIS 6338 within 300 mm): ±0.005 mm to ±0.015 mm.
  • Repeatability (JIS 6338 within 300 mm): ±0.002 mm to ±0.015 mm.

Additional Features

  • Ceiling coolant shower design for effective cooling.
  • Use of Japanese and German brand linear guides for precision and durability.
  • Rapid travel rates for HMC-800 up to 48/40/48 m/min (optional).

Performance Curves and Torque/Power Data

The document includes detailed spindle torque and power curves for various spindle models (e.g., FANUC B160LL/13000i, B112LL/15000i) showing continuous and short-term power ratings, torque values at different spindle speeds, and winding types (low/high). Key highlights include:

  • Spindle power ratings up to 30 kW (30 min) and continuous ratings around 15-25 kW depending on spindle type.
  • Torque values ranging from approximately 15 Nm to over 400 Nm depending on spindle and speed.

Packaging and Transport

  • Packaging options include 20' flat rack plus 20' standard containers or 40' flat rack depending on model size.
