The Nidec OKK HMC500 High-Productivity Horizontal Machining Center is designed to combine high-speed operation, structural rigidity, and precision for demanding production environments. Its wide column, highly rigid roller guides, and optimized machine structure provide excellent stability while supporting fast axis movement and reliable machining of a wide range of materials, including aluminum and cast iron. Core-cooled ball screws and a double-anchor pre-tension system help minimize thermal displacement and maintain accuracy during extended machining operations. The servo-driven automatic tool changer and direct-drive pallet changer reduce non-cutting time, while the machine’s chip evacuation system helps maintain reliable operation. Combining high productivity with precision and versatility, the HMC500 is well suited for automotive components, aluminum parts, and general industrial machining.
