Wins ""iF DESIGN AWARD 2023""

Information

Less space achieved although the machine is equipped with a high-speed and highly accurate tilting rotary table with ample jig area and a newly developed 28-tool magazine.
One-clamp machining encourages process integration.

Tilting rotary table

Provides ample jig area of ø500 x H270 to meet multi-face machining for mediumsized workpieces.

Max. loading capacity : 100kg

28-tool magazine

A newly developed compact drum type 28-tool magazine takes over fast tool change performance.

^* A 14-tool magazine or a 21-tool magazine can be also selected.

Max. tool weight :　4kg^*

^* Parameter setting needs to be changed.

Machining area in Z/Y-axes directions

Ample jig/workpiece/tool area secured in the Z-axis direction. (Distance between table top and spindle nose end: 445 mm)
The Y-axis travel range has been shifted from the center of the tilt axis to secure sufficient machining area when the tilt axis is at 90 degrees. (Y-axis travel when A-axis is at 90 degrees: 270 mm)

Pursuing fast acceleration and quick response through machine/controller integrated development and optimizing control with the new “CNC-D00” controller drive machine performance to the limit to provide high productivity.

Non-stop ATC

High-speed tool change has been achieved by faster and optimized spindle start/stop, Z-axis up/down, and magazine operation. Tools up to 3 kg can be changed in the shortest time. Tools up to 4 kg can also be changed with minimal increase in time.

28-tool magazine

Chip - Chip: 1.3 s
Tool - Tool: 0.7 s

Simultaneous operation

Wasted time has been reduced by simultaneously performing tool change and positioning X/Y and A/C axes.

Reliable and trustworthy machine structure has been achieved.
Equipped with a highly efficient spindle motor that demonstrates sufficient torque from the low- to high-speed range.
Achieves highly efficient machining in various industries, from automobile to general machinery, medical, and aircraft industries.
Tool center point control has been added to support simultaneous five-axis machining.^*
^{*Available only for the U500Xd1-5AX.}

XYZ axes based on S500Xd1

The main unit of the machine and XYZ-drive system are based on the bestselling S500Xd1 model. Highly rigid structure and high-speed operation have been achieved.

Highly efficient spindle motor

A spindle motor with high torque in the medium- and high-speed range is used to achieve high-speed and highly efficient machining of aluminum or iron.

10,000 min^-1 (standard)

Max. torque : 40Nm
Max. output : 18.9kW

High clamp torque

Both A and C axes are provided with high clamp torque, demonstrating high retention strength even in high-load machining. Machining with more stringent cutting conditions is possible, improving production efficiency.

A-axis clamp torque^* : 810Nm
C-axis clamp torque^* : 560Nm

Simultaneous 5-axis machining

Tool center point control comes with a variety of functions. This achieves high-speed and highly accurate simultaneous 5-axis machining in combination with a backlash-free tilting rotary table.

Tool center point control

Equipped with tool center point control where machining is performed by changing the tool direction relative to the workpiece.
Optimal acceleration by look-ahead up to 1,000 blocks achieves simultaneous 5-axis machining.

NC functions related to simultaneous 5-axis machining^*

Tool center point control (look-ahead 1,000 blocks),
submicron command, feature coordinates setting, memory capacity (3 Gbytes)

^*All functions are standard on the U500Xd1-5AX

Intuitive operation is possible with new apps and vertical touch panel screen. Relevant functions are grouped according to purpose, such as setup and machining, leading to efficient operation. Production and operation states are visualized, allowing faster understanding. Waste-free operation is possible in setup, machining adjustment, production, and recovery process, leading to improved work efficiency and operating rate.

Home screen

Information required for production, such as workpiece counter and tool life, is collected on the home screen. Shortcut keys are provided for screens frequently used so you can open them by one touch.

New user interface

Usability has been greatly improved by grouping relevant functions, creating new support apps that are intuitive with improved operability and visibility, providing useful accessories (calculator, notebook, file viewer etc.), and making operation on conventional screens possible on the touch panel.
