{"id":"makino-l2-apc","model_id":"L2 APC","name":"Makino L2 APC","summary":"The Makino L2 APC is a vertical 3-axis machining center built for high-volume machining of small parts. It uses a 16,000 rpm HSK-A50 spindle with a 15-tool magazine (30-tool magazine optional) and a 120 mm diameter rotary A-axis table, so milling, drilling and tapping operations can run with automatic tool changes and part indexing. The machine has 400 x 300 x 300 mm linear travels and a 48 m/min rapid traverse rate, and its compact footprint allows it to be placed in manual or robot-fed part flow arrangements.","study_notes":["Vertical 3-axis machining center with an additional rotary A-axis table stated as 120 mm diameter; A-axis resolution is given as 0.001° (no travel range is stated).","Linear travels are X 400 mm, Y 300 mm, Z 300 mm; the document gives an imperial duplicate listing of X 15.7 in, Y 11.8 in, Z 11.8 in.","Spindle is rated 16,000 rpm and 20 HP; an 8,000 rpm HSK-A50 spindle is offered as an option.","Standard ATC capacity is 15 tools in HSK-A50; a 30-tool magazine is optional.","Maximum tool diameter is 30 mm for adjacent pockets and 80 mm when adjacent pockets are empty (1.18 in / 3.14 in); maximum tool weight is 5 kg (11 lbs).","Chip-to-chip time is stated as 3.5 to 4.5 seconds.","Maximum workpiece envelope is 600 x 400 x 500 mm (39.4 in x 19.7 in x 17.7 in).","Cutting feedrate is listed at 48 m/min, the same value as rapid traverse.","Control is the Makino Professional L Control, which does not match any controller entry in the reference list.","Standard features include a 400 L coolant tank, right/rear discharge LUCC, 210 psi through-spindle coolant, overhead and nozzle coolant, coolant temperature controller, automatic grease supply, air dryer and a 3-layer signal light.","Program capacity is stated as 1,280 m of part program storage, 400 part programs, 400 tool offsets, 48 work coordinate pairs and custom macro with 700 variables.","Machine footprint is stated as 3 feet wide by 7 feet deep."],"safety_notes":[],"sources":[{"url":"https://www.makino.com/en-us/machine-technology/machines/vertical-machining-centers-3-axis/l2-apc-vertical-machining-center","title":"L2 APC","accessed":"2026-10-25"}],"verification":{"status":"source_checked","checked_at":"2026-10-25","values":11,"method":"llm_source_check"},"updated_at":"2026-10-25","type":"hardware","spec":{"category":"cnc_mill","manufacturer":"makino","controllers":[],"axes":3,"travel_x_mm":400,"travel_y_mm":300,"travel_z_mm":300,"spindle_max_rpm":16000,"spindle_power_kw":14.914,"spindle_taper":"HSK-A50","rapid_traverse_m_min":48,"tool_capacity":15,"table_load_kg":300,"joints":[],"protocols":[],"standards":[],"error_codes":[]},"url":"https://machineschema.com/hardware/makino-l2-apc","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"}
