"As a high performance machining center, not only is the BM-850 capable of heavy-duty cutting with features that include box ways on all axes, 8,000 RPM, and 36 arm tool changer, it can be built with an auto tool pallet changer system. Yama Seiki offers the BM-850-APC machine which can be used for processing automotive intake manifolds, gearbox shells, and other key components. With two tables installed into this machine, the time and productivity of repetitive machining is greatly increased," said a company spokesperson.
"The benefit of the BM-850 APC series can reduce the time it takes to cycle out a part from a matter of minutes to matter of seconds. While the spindle is cutting on one pallet, other tasks may be performed on the other pallet, such as cleaning off metal chips or loading in a new part. The APC machine is optimized to perform high accuracy cuts while handling heavy duty materials. The standard version of this machine can reach up to maximum speeds of 8,000 RPM with an output of 20HP. The structure of the machine, a 4 box way, one-piece bed design, is engineered to withstand years of rigorous heavy material, with every contact surface on all casting components hand scraped to ensure the tightest fit and accuracy possible."
"Although this vertical machine is considered to be one of the smaller size machines in Yama Seiki, it far exceeds everyone's expectations with its quick fast acceleration and deceleration times as well as its spacious travel room," said a Yama Seiki representative.
"With the combined part of the auto pallet tool changer, you have a multi-tasking machine, doubling the amount of production needed for suppliers to dish out their products."
The BM-850 APC Series machine includes two 31.5" x 18.1" working tables with a maximum capacity load of up to 440 lbs. It has axis travels of 33.5" x 23.6" x 23.6" for X, Y, and Z axis, respectively. Users invest this machine due to its ability to change from one pallet to another within 7 seconds, capable of mass producing various machine components on a daily basis, said the spokesperson. For maximum output and performance, various options are included with this machine such as rear-exit chip conveyors, coolant through systems, and more.
