Makino T1

The Makino T1 is a five-axis horizontal machining center that uses a 155-degree tilting A-axis and a deep chest column to machine five sides of parts up to 1,500 mm in diameter. Its 12,000 rpm spindle delivers high torque at low speed for titanium and continuous power through top speed for aluminium. The machine carries a 3,000 kg pallet payload and a 60-position automatic tool changer.

Study notes

  • Machine structure: box-way castings, active damping to reduce cutting vibration, and high-pressure through-spindle coolant.
  • The 155-degree A-axis tilts from -110 degrees to +45 degrees; the B-axis rotates 360 degrees; the C-axis is listed as not applicable.
  • Spindle torque is 1,000 Nm duty-rated from spindle start to 1,000 rpm.
  • Continuous spindle power is 76 hp through 12,000 rpm.
  • Pallet size is 1,000 mm; maximum workpiece is a 1,500 mm diameter by 1,500 mm part.
  • Maximum payload is 3,000 kg, with a 5,000 kg option.
  • ATC capacity is 60 tools standard, with 96 and 137 tool options.
  • Tool-to-tool time is 4 s (6 s alternate) and chip-to-chip time is 14 s (16 s alternate).
  • Maximum tool diameter is 300 mm and maximum tool weight is 30 kg.
  • Through-spindle coolant is 7 MPa at 100 L/min; nozzle coolant is 1.5 MPa at 50 L/min.
  • Cutting feedrate equals the 25,000 mm/min rapid traverse rate.
  • Imperial tables in the document give 39.37 in pallet, X 59.1 in, Y 51.2 in, Z 78.7 in and 984.3 in/min rapid.
