View MoreThe Makino D200Z five-axis vertical machining center combines the quickness of machine movements and accuracies with the latest software developments for high-precision, high-speed motion control. From roughing to high-speed finishing of multifaceted, contoured 3D geometries, the D200Z boosts productivity with the most competitive processing capabilities for complex dies and molds typically found in the automotive, injection molding, packaging, medical and optical markets.
The design of the D200Z packs industry-leading speed and precision into a compact unit (1500 mm wide by 2220 mm deep) for efficient use of floor space. All machine elements and peripheral equipment are strategically located within the main body of the machine to limit the overall machine footprint. Both the standard 20-tool capacity automatic tool changer (ATC) and the optional 40-tool ATC fit within the same machine floor space, enabling companies to expand capability without loss of floor space. In addition, the machine tool magazine capacity can be optionally expanded to 100 and 300 tools.
Wide base castings and core-cooled ballscrews serve as a base platform for all other machine components, enhancing overall process stability. The machine’s 30,000-rpm, HSK-E50 spindle is designed with a high-tech spindle core and jacket cooling system to tightly control thermal growth, deflection and vibration during high-speed machining operations. As a result, the D200Z extends tool life and has exceptional surface finishes even in applications requiring fine tool blends and matches.
