High Precision CNC Jig Borer



Methods Machine Tools has introduced the YASDA YBM 9150 CNC Jig Borer, a 3-axis machining center.

Despite its space-saving footprint, the YBM 9150 features a large work envelope with 61" x 37" x 18" (1,500 x 900 x 540 mm) XYZ-axis travels suitable for applications such as mold bases and more. With a symmetrical bridge structure, three-point machine base and rigid design, the YBM 9150 can machine a wide range of demanding materials. The machine also features through-hardened (HR60) box guideways, contributing to machine rigidity.

The YBM 9150 features a thermal distortion stabilization system that isolates the spindle head, saddle unit and top of the bridge from thermal expansion during machining.

A direct-drive self-adjusting spindle preload and optical scale feedback on the XYZ axes provide precision positioning, and curvic coupling for pallet clamping also enhances precision machining. For maximum accuracy, the minimum positioning input/output increment is 0.0001 mm.

The YASDA YBM 9150 comes standard with two pallets, a 100 - 24,000 RPM BIG PLUS 40 taper spindle, a 30 capacity tool magazine, twin spiral chip augers, a user-friendly FANUC 31-B5 10.4" color LCD control and 200 registerable programs.

Machine options include a choice of probing systems, high torque or high-speed spindles, automatic pallet changers and up to five preload stations.
