HMC Series – Horizontal Machining Center
Optimized for high-volume production of complex geometries, our horizontal machining centers integrate 4-axis simultaneous machining and automated pallet-changing systems.
The rigid, enclosed structure ensures superior chip management and thermal stability during heavy-duty cutting of cast iron, titanium, and superalloys.
Ideal for unmanned manufacturing cells requiring 24/7 throughput with micron-level consistency.

Features
Unmatched Production Efficiency
Feature: Integrated Automatic Pallet Changer (APC)
Benefit: Enables continuous, lights-out operation. One pallet is being machined while the operator sets up the next workpiece, drastically reducing idle time and maximizing throughput.
Superior Stability for Heavy-Duty Cutting
Feature: Robust, monolithic casting and hardened box ways.
Benefit: Provides exceptional vibration damping and rigidity, allowing for aggressive machining of tough materials like cast iron and superalloys with superior surface finish and extended tool life.
True 4-Axis Machining Capability
Feature: High-precision NC rotary table.
Benefit: Complete access to four sides of a part in a single setup. This eliminates multiple fixturing steps, reduces cumulative errors, and guarantees perfect positional accuracy between features.
Advanced Chip & Coolant Management
Feature: Optimal internal chip evacuation and flood coolant systems.
Benefit: Efficiently removes chips from the deep work envelope, preventing recutting and protecting the workpiece and tooling during long, unattended machining cycles.
Foundational Automation Readiness
Feature: Standardized interfaces and large work envelope.
Benefit: Designed from the ground up for seamless integration with robotic arms and automated manufacturing cells, future-proofing your investment.
Optional
Who Benefits Most
High-Volume Production Cells
Ideal For: Automotive component manufacturers, energy sector part suppliers.
The combination of pallet changers and unmatched uptime makes HMCs indispensable for producing large batches of complex parts with minimal human intervention.
Complex, Box-Type Component Manufacturers
Ideal For: Manufacturers of pump housings, valve bodies, transmission cases, and engine blocks.
The 4-axis capability allows for complete machining of a part’s multiple faces and angled features in one clamping, ensuring critical tolerances are held.
Aerospace & Defense Contractors
Ideal For: Machining large aluminum structural components, landing gear parts, and turbine housings.
The stability and power enable precise machining of large, complex geometries from tough materials like titanium and Inconel, while the automation handles the long cycle times.
Precision Machine Shops Scaling Operations
Ideal For: Job shops transitioning from VMCs to capitalize on larger, more complex contracts.
An HMC is a productivity multiplier. It dramatically increases your capacity and capability, allowing you to bid on and profitably complete jobs that are inefficient or impossible on vertical machines.
Case Study
Configuration: ST-52YT installs the 3-Jaw Hydraulic Chuck, Power turret.
Workpiece: Connection shaft, 45 steel.
Machining Process: Turning, Facing, Drilling, Milling.
Turning Duration: within 380 seconds of one-time processing
