Makino J6

The Makino J6 is a family of horizontal machining centers for high-volume CNC machining. It is offered in three kinematic variations: two four-axis machines with either an A-axis or a B-axis, and one five-axis machine with a B-over-A axis configuration. The machine has X, Y, and Z travels of 750 mm, 560 mm, and 500 mm, and uses a 16,000 rpm HSK-A63 spindle.

Study notes

  • The J6 family is offered in three kinematic variations: two four-axis machines (A-axis or B-axis) and one five-axis machine with a B-over-A axis configuration.
  • Travels are X 750 mm, Y 560 mm, and Z 500 mm; stroke-up is standard for X, Y, and Z.
  • Spindle speed is 16,000 rpm standard with 12,000 rpm optional.
  • Rapid traverse is 75,000 mm/min and cutting feedrate is 50,000 mm/min.
  • A-axis range is unlimited on the A-axis type and +90°/-180° on the A/B-axes type. B-axis range is unlimited on the A-axis and A/B-axes types.
  • Pallet and maximum workpiece size differ by kinematic variant; the document directs the reader to consult Makino or the factory for details.
  • ATC capacity is 30 tools standard with 40 tools optional.
  • Chip-to-chip time is 2.0 s ±10%.
  • Maximum tool diameter is Ø100 mm, or Ø125 mm with limitations; maximum tool weight is 8 kg.
  • True three-point leveling is used for installation and long-term alignment stability.

Safety

  • Maximum payload is 500 kg for the B-axis type and 400 kg for the A-axis and A/B-axes types.
  • Maximum tool weight is 8 kg.
  • Maximum tool diameter is Ø100 mm; Ø125 mm is permitted only with limitations.
