Study notes

  • Slideways are used on the X-, Z- and Y-axis to raise vibration damping and dynamic rigidity.
  • The turret uses a BMT (Built-in Motor Turret); the rotary tool spindle runs at up to 10,000 min-1.
  • Maximum rotary tool spindle torque is 29 N·m (21.4 ft·lbf) for less than 3 min.
  • Coolant circulation through the machine body is standard to control thermal displacement; the heat-controlling structure is stated to improve machining precision.
  • A high-precision, quick-change turret is available as an option.
  • Control and software alternative listed in the document is MAPPS Mitsubishi.
