Cost-Effective Multi-Tasking Turning Center



Mazak Corporation offers its HQR-250MSY multi-tasking turning center. With its upper turret with rotary tool milling (M), second spindle (S) and Y-axis capabilities (Y), this productive machine is designed to deliver true Done-In-One part-processing opportunities and high-volume throughput.

The twin-spindle, twin-turret configuration can easily complete machining from slug and/or bar material in a single set-up. Furthermore, the balanced cutting of the upper and lower turrets promotes high part throughput. By operating together or separately, the twin opposed turning spindles allow a single part to be machined on all surfaces through a coordinated "hand-off" between spindles. Alternately, two different parts can be machined simultaneously on one machine.

The spindles are supported by large-diameter bearings for high spindle rigidity. The main spindle features a 10" chuck, 3.58" spindle bore and 35 HP integral spindle motor that provides a maximum 4,000 RPM speed. The second spindle has an 8" chuck, 2.55" spindle bore and a 30 HP integral spindle motor that offers a 5,000 RPM top speed. Both have full CNC C-axis control for part positioning and contouring with indexing increments of 0.0001°.

Because the twin turrets operate independently or together on the same workpiece, the machine can process two different features on a workpiece simultaneously or follow a balanced strategy where two tools work together on the same workpiece feature. In cases where the part configuration permits, balanced machining can potentially remove up to 25% of the cycle time.

Both the upper and lower turrets accommodate 12 tools (24 tools optional) each and have 4" Y-axis travel capability for off-centerline operations. Rotary tool spindles on each turret deliver 6,000 RPM and 7.5 HP for milling and drilling multitasking functionality.

Additionally, the machine can further optimize part throughput via Mazak factory unloading that brings finished workpieces up to 3" diameter x 10" to the outside of the machining area without interrupting the machining cycle.

The machine comes equipped with the MAZATROL SmoothG CNC, designed to make it easy to generate programs for processing high-production complex parts through off-centerline machining as well as angled drilling, milling and tapping. Through its SMOOTH TECHNOLOGY platform, the MAZATROL SmoothG offers several advanced programming functions, including SMOOTH CORNER CONTROL, which reduces vibrations and shortens machining cycle times through cutter path adjustments made when machining into corners, and INTELLIGENT POCKET MILLING, which engages a high-efficiency toolpath when milling out part cavities.

For continuous unmanned operations, the HQR-250MSY integrates with an optional bar feeder and unloader or robot loader/unloader.
