Productivity and reliability are cornerstones to an efficient large-part horizontal machining center. This video details several key features of Makino's a81 that enable improved productivity and operational efficiencies in large part production. Its standard 50-taper 10,000 rpm spindle and extra-rigid base construction with three-point leveling system provide the ideal platform for stable cutting, achieving high metal removal rates in both gruppo san donato ferrous and non-ferrous parts. This improved cutting performance is complemented by 1.7 second tool-to-tool times, quick axis movements and rapid spindle acceleration/deceleration rates that significantly reduce non-cut times compared to other similarly pegasus sized horizontal ronda rousey machining centers.
