Mazak HCR in Action & Demo

Frequently Asked Questions: Mazak HCR

How much does the Mazak HCR cost?

Our best estimate for the Mazak HCR is $400,000 - $700,000. This is an estimate for a 5-axis machining centers in this class, not a quote from Yamazaki Mazak; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/mazak-hcr#price; the request is passed to Yamazaki Mazak or an authorised dealer.

What is the difference between the HCR-5000 and the HCR-5000S?

The HCR-5000 has a 2-pallet changer, so the next workpiece is set up while the current one is machined. The HCR-5000S is the single-pallet version, which Mazak pairs with its Multi Pallet Pool in 6, 12 or 18 pallet capacities. Travels, spindle and tool capacity are the same. The HCR-5000 weighs 31,327 lb (14,210 kg), and the lower figure in the weight row is 28,219 lb (12,800 kg).

What rotary axis range does the HCR table have?

The A-axis tilts from -90° to +135° and the C-axis rotates a full turn in either direction. Rotation speeds are 30 rpm on the A-axis and 50 rpm on the C-axis. Both use a roller gear cam system and position in 0.0001° increments. Table load is 1,102 lb (500 kg), and the HCR-5000 table measures 19.69 in (500 mm) × 19.69 in (500 mm).

Which spindles are available on the HCR series?

Mazak lists four. The basic model is 12,000 rpm, 18.5 kW (25 HP) at 40% ED, CAT No.40 and grease lubricated. Options are 18,000 rpm with 35 kW (47 HP) at 40% ED in CAT No.40, BIG-PLUS No.40 or HSK-A63; 25,000 rpm with 23 kW (30.6 HP) at 40% ED in HSK-A63; and 30,000 rpm with 80 kW (106.6 HP) continuous rating in HSK-A63.

How does the HCR handle chips and coolant?

The horizontal spindle and tilting table let chips drop off the part. A coolant stream washes chips from the workpiece and pallet onto a chip conveyor in a center trough, which carries them out of the machine. The coolant tank is a standard accessory with a capacity of 800 L (211 gal), sized to discharge large amounts of coolant.

What tools does the HCR magazine take?

The magazine holds 40 tools. Maximum tool diameter is Ø4 in (102 mm), or Ø7 in (178 mm) with adjacent pockets empty. Maximum tool length is 16 in (406 mm) and maximum tool weight is 26 lb (12 kg). The taper is CAT No.40 on the basic spindle; the optional 25,000 rpm and 30,000 rpm spindles use HSK-A63.
