At WMTS 2017, Mazak Canada will demonstrate how the QTN 450M turning center reduces cycle times for large-diameter, shaft-type part manufacturing in industries such as oil and gas.
The QTN 450M provides high-performance and value via its single setup turning and milling operations that allow for improved throughput. The machine sports 457-mm (18") chuck mounted on a 50-hp, 2,000-rpm integrated spindle motor main turning spindle for heavy-duty metal removal. The spindle is a full-function, CNC-controlled C axis for milling, and it indexes at 0.0001-degree increments to accurately position parts for square facing and slotting cuts as well as precisely drilled holes.
With a 12-position drum turret and 10-hp, 4,000-rpm rotary tool spindle, the machine performs milling, drilling and tapping operations for highly efficient single-setup part processing.
At WMTS, attendees will also experience Mazak’s MAZATROL SmoothX CNC. The control allows for faster and easier programming in either EIA or MAZATROL conversational and contributes significantly to overall shorter part cycle times. It features several advanced functions that include High Gain Feed Forward Control, Fast Rotary Axis Speeds, Variable Acceleration Control and Intelligent Pocket Milling.
