5-Axis Machining Centres For Everyone


What Do You Want to Create Today?

5-axis machining is an effective means to reduce setups and increase accuracy for multi-sided and complex parts. The shorter travels and compact footprints of the Haas UMC-500SS 5-Axis Universal Machine make it perfect for 5-axis machining of smaller parts.

The UMC-500SS has a faster spindle, high-speed tool changer, together with high-speed trunnion table. This combination reduces cycle times as well as boosts productivity.

UMC-500 • 5-Axis Universal Machining Centre

The UMC-500 has the capability of the UMC-750 together with the design improvements of the UMC-1000. Furthermore, it sits on a footprint just slightly larger than a VF-2.

5-Axis Made Easy – Parts 1, 2 and 3


1: Senior applications engineer John Nelson explains why 5-axis machining is much simpler than it has ever been before, furthermore why any shop can be a 3+2 or 5-axis shop.

2: John explains how to make the correct choice when choosing your machine and rotary combination.

3: He talks about setting up your rotary table or trunnion, as well as explaining how the Dynamic Work Offsets and Tool Centre Point Control makes multi-axis work more straightforward than ever.

16-Station Pallet Pool for UMC-500 5-Axis Universal Machining Centre

High-volume production, unattended operation

The 16-station pallet pool for the UMC-500 and UMC-500SS are perfect for high-volume production runs. In addition, the pallets can be scheduled individually according to priority and sequencing requirements. In other words allowing high-priority parts to be machined first or staged more often. Another key point is that completed pallets automatically return to the holding location or can be sequenced to a protected operator station. In other words allowing immediate unloading and re-loading.

NOTE: The Pallet Pool must be anchored for proper operation.

 

UMC Auto Parts Loader for 5-Axis Universal Machining Centre

Automate Your Part Production on Small UMCs

The Haas Automatic Parts Loader is a simple and affordable way to automate part production. What’s more it’s designed and built exclusively for the Haas UMC-500 series. By the same token, for simplicity, it connects directly to the Haas control.

 

UMC-500SS and Pallet Pool In Action


The compact footprint of the UMC-500 makes it ideal for smaller 5-axis workshops. Furthermore the UMC-500SS has a faster spindle coupled with a high-speed tool changer. Additionally, a high-speed trunnion reduces cycle times and boosts efficiency. The addition of our 16-Station Pallet Pool takes your production to the next level. At last running “lights out” has become a reality.
