High-rigidity machine construction for stable machining performance

High-rigidity bed

The high-rigidity X-, Z-axis roller guide ensures stability during X- and Z-axis travel.

X-axis slanted design

The mounting surfaces of the X-axis linear guide rails are at different heights to ensure high rigidity and lower total weight. High-speed, high-precision positioning is achieved by driving close to the center of gravity.

Linear roller guides utilized on all axes

The HCN series uses linear roller guides on the X-, Y- and Z-axis for high accuracy and heavy-duty machining.

 

Rapid traverse rate, maximum feedrate 2362 IPM (X, Y, Z axis)

Cone coupling

The pallet and table are clamped by cone couplings to ensure high rigidity and high repeatable positioning accuracy when changing pallets.

High positioning accuracy

3 times better than ISO standard

Mazak precision results (ISO)*

*The inspection is conducted according to ISO 230 and ISO 10791 on a recommended foundation with room temperature controlled to 22°C±1°C after the machine has reached operating temperature. Sample results for reference only.

Hydraulic hoses supply hydraulic power from the top part of the pallet changer to fixtures mounted on each pallet.
Maximum of 12 ports can be arranged. High-power hydraulic supply with 3046 PSI is available.

Hydraulic power supply B(supply through pallet) (Option)

A leak-free coupling system supplies hydraulic power to the supply port on the bottom of the pallet. Unlike hydraulic power supply from machine top, this system requires no hydraulic hose or hydraulic rotary coupling. This minimizes interference for easy fixture design and workpiece machining. High-power hydraulic supply with 3046 PSI is available.

Improved environmental performance with energy-saving equipment

Energy Saver

Energy consumption and the regenerative power produced through the energy saving equipment can be viewed visually on the CNC system to stimulate awareness of energy conservation. In addition, the system can control coolant and other equipment based on the cutting amount to reduce power consumption.
* An optional Smooth coolant system is required for the control of coolant and other equipment.

temp

Environmentally friendly Smooth coolant system (Option)

Optimal control of coolant discharge amount

Energy saver automatically determines the optimal coolant discharge for energy-saving machining. Processing with reduced power consumption is possible at all times.

Coolant discharge amount 1: Face milling 2: End milling 3: Drilling

Energy-saving coolant system with sludge removal performance

No need to frequently clean the tank

The coolant tank has a coolant jet that makes a vortex in the center so that small machined chips will not settle in the tank. This feature makes it possible to keep the coolant tank clean and extend the service life of the coolant. Ease of maintenance is also ensured. The frequency of coolant changes is reduced as well as CO₂ emissions at coolant disposal.
