Fuji Introduces HM-3000 Milling Cell

Featuring 4-axis (X/Y/Z&C) simultaneous control, the HM-3000 Milling Cell from Fuji is capable of 5-face machining in one chucking for processing flanges, hubs, differential cases and more, the company said.

"Equipped with Fuji's own high-speed gantry robot, the HM-3000 provides work piece loading and unloading efficiency," said a spokesperson. "For faster and smoother simultaneous multi-axis movement to access the front, back, left and right of the traverse axis, the HM-3000 comes with Fuji's SP1 Max Robot Controller. A Fanuc 210i-MB CNC Control is also included.

"The tools are mounted in a circular arrangement. Axial and radial holders can be freely attached anywhere on the turret of the HM-3000. Attaching an axial holder diagonally creates a B-axis on the machining center for machining angular holes. Turret tool capacity of the HM-3000 is offered with turrets of six, ten and 15 tool stations.

"The bed design allows swarf-chips to fall directly into the large discharge opening beneath the main spindle. Chips are transported away by Fuji designed and built chip conveyor.

"The HM-3000 is ideal for drilling and milling after turning operations at the end of a modular production line or as a stand-alone operation. The modular design of Fuji's Milling Cell allows for line integration with Fuji ANS, ANW and TNW models."
