Versatile Swiveling DesignThe MH-700's universal head swivels 90 and the table 45, enabling intricate multi-angle machining tasks without repositioning the workpiece. Combined with horizontal and vertical operations, this flexibility suits everything from detailed component milling to broader material removals, making it a practical choice for tool rooms and job shops handling diverse projects.
Robust Construction for StabilityBuilt from heavy-duty cast iron, the machine offers exceptional structural rigidity. This minimizes vibrations, ensuring consistently accurate milling. The dovetail and box slideways provide smooth movement and long-term durability, supporting workpieces up to 350 kg. Designed for reliability, the MH-700 is well-suited for demanding, repetitive applications and sustained industrial use.
Enhanced Efficiency and AutomationWhile not CNC, the MH-700 provides semi-automatic operations with power feeds on all axes and rapid traverse capability for X, Y, and Z movements. The centralized automatic lubrication and built-in coolant system streamline maintenance and temperature regulation, reducing operator workload and increasing productivity during continuous operations.
FAQ's of Maho MH-700 Universal Tool Room Milling Machine:
Q: How does the MH-700 improve precision and repeatability in tool room milling?
A: The MH-700 ensures high precision and repeatable results through its rigid heavy cast iron structure, precise dovetail and box slideways, variable spindle speeds and feed rates, and universal head and table swivel capability. This robust design minimizes vibration, allowing for accurate operations even during complex milling, drilling, or slotting tasks.
Q: What applications and materials is this milling machine best suited for?
A: Ideal for medium-duty operations, the MH-700 is designed for precision milling, drilling, slotting, and reaming of various metals and hard materials. Its universal features make it suitable for manufacturing, prototyping, repair work, and tool-room environments requiring both versatility and accuracy.
Q: When should operators use the rapid traverse function, and how does it benefit workflow?
A: Rapid traverse on X, Y, and Z axes is best used when repositioning the table or tool between machining tasks or setups. This accelerates non-cutting movements, minimizing downtime and boosting overall shop floor efficiency, especially when handling multiple workpieces or complex setups.
Q: Where can the MH-700 be installed, considering its size and power requirements?
A: The machine demands approximately 2000 mm x 1800 mm of floor space and a three-phase power supply (415V/380V). It fits well in medium- to large-sized workshops, manufacturing facilities, and tool rooms equipped with suitable electrical infrastructure and lifting equipment for its 1800-2000 kg weight.
Q: What process controls does the MH-700 offer, and how are speeds/feeds managed?
A: Though manually controlled, the MH-700 provides 20-step variable spindle speeds (40-2000 rpm) and 20-step feed rates. Operators can adjust these controls via hand wheels and levers for optimal cutting speeds and feed per the task, material, or tool requirement, ensuring versatility for different operations.
Q: How does the lubrication and coolant system enhance the longevity and safety of the machine?
A: Its centralized automatic lubrication keeps all critical moving parts properly lubricated, minimizing wear and maintenance needs. The built-in coolant system maintains cutting temperature and flushes away debris, ensuring improved tool life, surface finish, and operator safety.
Q: What benefits does the universal head and swiveling table provide during milling operations?
A: The universal head (90 swivel) and table (45 swivel) allow the operator to tackle multi-angle operations and complex geometries without extensive re-clamping or repositioning. This flexibility saves valuable setup time and expands the scope of workable precision parts.
