What the maker publishes about the current Mazak HCN-6000

Mazak lists the HCN-6000 among its horizontal machining centers, fitted with a 2 pallet changer and 19.69" × 19.69" pallets, and it accepts workpieces up to Φ35.43" × 39.37". Its standard spindle takes CAT No.50 tooling and turns to 10000 rpm. The spindle motor gives 37 kW (50 HP) at 40%ED or 30 kW (40 HP) continuous, with torque of 350 N・m and 238 N・m respectively. A high torque spindle is an option, running to 7000 rpm with 442 N・m on a 30 minute rating. The magazine stores 43 tools, each up to Φ5" across (Φ10" when neighboring pockets are empty), 20" long from the gauge line and 66 lbs. X, Y and Z all travel 32", and the spindle center sits between 4" and 35" above the pallet top. Every axis rapids at 2362 IPM. In the configuration Mazak lists, the machine measures 122" × 268" in width and length, stands 133" high and weighs 34833 lbs.

What fits a Mazak HCN-6000

Each of these follows from a published specification above, which is named beside it.

50-taper toolholders

This is a 50-taper spindle — the 7:24 steep taper that CAT-50, BT-50 and DIN 69871 (SK-50) holders all share. They share the taper and nothing else that matters: the retention knob and the flange form differ between those standards, so holders do not swap between them without changing pull studs. Knowing which standard a machine was tooled for is worth doing before the holders are packed.

Derived from Spindle taper: CAT No.50

What to check on a Mazak HCN-6000

  • Spindle. The manufacturer gives a spindle speed of 10000 rpm (standard spindle). Run the spindle to top speed and listen for bearing noise.
  • Spindle load. The manufacturer gives 37 kW (50 HP) (40%ED) or 30 kW (40 HP) (continuous rating) of spindle power. Take a heavy cut and watch the load meter.
  • Spindle taper. The manufacturer gives a spindle taper of CAT No.50. Check it for fretting and that the drawbar holds a tool.
  • Axes and way covers. The manufacturer gives X 32", Y 32" and Z 32" of travel. Run each axis end to end and check the way covers.
  • Rapids and ballscrews. The manufacturer gives a rapid traverse of 2362 IPM (X, Y and Z each). Measure the backlash on each axis.
  • Tool changer. The manufacturer gives the tool capacity as 43. Cycle every pocket and watch for a hesitation.
  • Rigging and floor. The manufacturer gives a machine weight of 34833 lbs and a floor space of 122" × 268" (MAZATROL SmoothG version). Confirm the rigging route and the floor will take that.
