PRODUCT SHOWCASE: Modular SPECHT 500/630 HMC from MAG

MAG’s new SPECHT® 500/630 horizontal machining center takes modularity to a new level offering linear-motor or ballscrew drives, CAT-40 through HSK-100 tool interfaces, six spindle options, four control options, and three five-axis configurations to suit needs ranging from one-off work in job shops to agile machining lines. The U.S.-built machine is engineered around a box-in-box, moving-table design for low-inertia responsiveness and delivers accuracies up to 4 microns (0.00015 in) with 260-Nm (192 ft lb) full-torque cuts. Designed to the highest green standards, the SPECHT has an industry-leading 1.8-meter-wide (6 ft) footprint and conserves energy with no warm-up, multi-step sleep mode, regenerative drives, half the normal coolant requirements and only one-third the air extraction needs. Its maintenance-friendly design shows SPECHT’s automotive industry lineage with front or rear spindle removal and one-cabinet fluid management center for grease, pneumatics, coolant, and hydraulics.
