Horizontal Machining Center

Structural Features

• Horizontal spindle: The spindle is arranged in a horizontal direction, which facilitates the discharge of chips and avoids the accumulation of chips in the machining area, which can affect machining accuracy.
• Rotary table: Most horizontal machining centers are equipped with at least one rotary table (B-axis), allowing automatic positioning and machining of workpieces on different faces, improving machining efficiency and accuracy.
• Automatic Tool Changer System: Equipped with an automatic tool changer (ATC), the machine is able to change tools quickly and reduce non-cutting time, which is suitable for the machining needs of complex parts.

Machining Capability

Horizontal machining centers are particularly suitable for machining parts that require multi-face machining, such as cases and housings. With the automated rotary table, multi-face machining tasks can be accomplished in a single setup, effectively improving productivity and machining accuracy. In addition, its structural design and high-performance CNC system enable horizontal machining centers to perform high-speed, high-precision cutting operations to meet the demands of complex parts machining.

Automated Production

Horizontal machining centers are designed to integrate automated production lines more easily, such as automatic loading and unloading using robots and FMS (Flexible Manufacturing System) systems that link multiple machines to achieve highly efficient unmanned production. This automation capability is particularly suited to mass production, which can significantly reduce production costs and increase market competitiveness.
