FMA5-II - 560 x 350 x 500 mm Horizontal Machining Center / FMS

The Tsugami FMA series of machines quickly established itself as the industry standard in integrated pallet pool HMCs when they were first introduced 25 years ago.  Five generations of successful upgrades later, it remains the benchmark for semi-attended or unattended operation.    Innovations include a vertical bed, “free-flow” chip disposal, heat dispersion, and Tsugami power and accuracy.  The machine is also available in a 350 x 330 x 400 mm version, the FMA3-II.

The Benchmark HMC /FMS

The FMA5-II Horizontal Machining Center is designed for unattended operation with a resident multi-pallet pool while delivering unparalleled speed and accuracy.  Featuring an ATC tool-to-tool time of 1 second, X/Y/Z traverse rate of 24 m/min, and B-axis indexing speed of 2.2 sec, this machining center delivers the power, precision, and repetitive performance for true lights out operations.

This flexible manufacturing system  (FMS) is standard with an 8 pallet magazine, but may also be configured with a 10 pallet option.

This Tsugami HMC is also designed to solve two persistent problems in semi-attended or unattended HMC operation:  chip disposal and heat dispersion.   The vertical-type pallet system and bed permits the free flow of chips – with or without an operator.  The chips and coolant are also isolated from the bed – preventing thermal distortion of the machine.

The FMA5-II comes with space saving vertical-loop pallet system – allowing a number of different workpieces in each pallet.  A 62 tool ATC is standard, with options for 126 and 190 tool magazines.
