Efficient five axis machining begins at the core

A solid base, the highest removal rate in its class, and lowest required maintenance allows for a longer tool and machine life. Toyoda’s FA1050 5-Axis horizontal machining center is that along with all the capabilities wanted of boring, end milling, finish cutting, threading, U-axis machining while maintaining accuracy at the industry’s fastest removal rate. At Toyoda, we start at the core of the machine – giving you not only the longest machine life, but minimizing tool breakage and unneeded upkeep. Toyoda’s FA1050 5-Axis machine begins with a solid cast iron base combined with full-plate clamping mechanism withholding up to 26,000 lbs. of table clamp force. Shop owners can expect to achieve stable axial feed at high speeds during heavy workloads due to the machines rigid core. Spindle support from four heavy duty bearings – robust double-row cylindrical roller bearings and dual angular contact thrust bearings – eliminates vibration. The boxway machine performs rapid acceleration and consistency with its 60 HP spindle drive motor at 6,000 RPM of geared head tough cutting Unstable machining on difficult metals is a recipe for disaster. The FA1050 5-Axis’ solid structure secures versatile, accurate and highly competitive machining on difficult materials such as Hastelloy, Inconel, Nichrome amongst other exotic metals. The possibilities of manufacturing success are endless with Toyoda. Catch Toyoda’s FA1050 5-Axis in action at Booth S-8519 at the 2016 IMTS show!
