JTEKT– Revolutionary 5-Axis Technology

JTEKT are a long-established company and offer manufacturers superior performance throughout their range of horizonal machining centres.

With their state-of-the-art horizontal machining centres for efficient production and high precision machining, JTEKT provide manufacturers with speed and accuracy for maximum productivity. The machine pallet sizes vary from 400 mm up to 1,600 mm to accommodate every engineering solution.

JTEKT offer revolutionary 5-axis technology within the horizontal machining centre range, allowing to machine complex shapes efficiently in a single set-up. They’re constantly striving to improve their products, with its customers in mind to retain a competitive edge. JTEKT’s control technology and support systems automatically calculate efficient 5-axis machining processes allowing complex operations to be performed by simply entering initial parameters.

The FH1250SX-5Axis, one of many 5-axis machines available from JTEKT, designed for complex large part machining. It features a 15,000 RPM integral tilting spindle and rapid feed rates of 32 m/min on the X and Y axes and 42/min on the Z axis.

JTEKT Machinery begins with the core of the machine – giving you not only the longest machine life, but minimising tool breakage. The FA1050 5-Axis machine begins with a solid cast iron base combined with full-plate clamping mechanism withholding up to 11,000 kg of table clamp force. Manufacturers can expect to achieve stable axial feed at high speeds – 24 m/min on the X, Y and Z axes – during heavy workloads due to the machines rigid core.

Being at the forefront of the industry means having the right machine tools for each manufacturers requirement. JTEKT’s machine range are developed with the operator in mind, utilising Fanuc and JTEKT controls for ease of use and optimal efficiency. With first class design, unsurpassed technology and the support of thoughtful engineering. JTEKT builds more than a superb machine – it manufactures precision and performance at its finest.
