Machining automotive components on a Mazak UN-600/30V and a Mazak UN-600/30H

Compact, high-speed, vertical machining center Mazak UN-600/30V and horizontal machining center Mazak UN-600/30H - optimised for large volume production of automotive components.

The Mazak UN-600/30V and the Mazak UN-600/30H are ultra-compact, high-speed machining centers designed for high-volume production, especially in the automotive industry, with a particular focus on productivity and occupying minimal floor space.

Key features include a significantly reduced machine width achieved through an innovative X-axis design (Y+C axis interpolation for the 'V' model and a compound X-axis for the 'H' model), high-speed spindles, and chip management systems.

These machines also offer automation-friendliness, allowing for easy integration into work cells and efficient maintenance with centrally located components.

Ultra-Compact Footprint: The machine's narrow width is achieved by using the C-axis (table rotation) and Y-axis (column) to create the X-axis motion, allowing for a wider machining envelope in a smaller footprint. 

High-Speed Cutting: Equipped with high-speed spindles and axes, these machines are designed for rapid cycle times and efficient material removal.

Automation-Friendly: The compact design facilitates placement of multiple machines in a line or cell, making them ideal for automated mass production environments tended by robots.

Take a look at the Mazak UN-600/30V specifications.

Ultra-Compact Footprint: Similar to the vertical model, this horizontal machine is also significantly smaller than conventional HMCs of its class, with half of the X-axis stroke on the table and the other half on the column. 

High-Speed Spindles: Features high-speed, integral spindle/motors with fast acceleration and deceleration, contributing to high productivity. 

Reliable Performance: Includes features like a chiller unit for the spindle motor and a system to prevent chip accumulation from affecting linear guides and ball screws, ensuring consistent machining accuracy and machine reliability.
