Makino has released the next-generation MAG3.EX 5-axis horizontal machining centre for the processing of complex aluminum structural parts for the aerospace industry.
It can handle common structural parts up to 4 m in length, including wing ribs, bulkheads, and beam-type components. Its X-, Y-, and Z-axis travels of 4,000 mm, 1,500 mm, and 1,000 mm, respectively, accommodate part sizes up to 4,000 mm by 1,500 mm by 750 mm. The machine’s A and C axes are located within the spindle housing and provide ±110-degree tilting and 360-degree rotation.
The machine has more power and higher feed rates, and rapid traverse rates have been improved across all axes. These faster axial movements, combined with an improved ATC and automatic pallet changer, reduce non-cutting times. The large-capacity ATC is capable of holding up to 120 tools.
