Our best estimate for a horizontal machining centers (hmc) in this class — not a quote from JTEKT. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The JTEKT FH630SX is a 50-taper horizontal machining center on a 630 mm x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) pallet, sized for heavy parts: 1,500 kg (3,306 lb) on the pallet, a workpiece swing of 1,170 mm (46.06 in) and a workpiece height up to 1,600 mm (62.99 in). The CAT50 spindle is rated at 887 ft-lb (1,202 Nm) of torque.

That torque figure defines the machine. On a CAT50 taper it carries large face mills and long boring bars in cast iron and steel, cuts that a lighter spindle has to take in more passes. Two maximum speeds are listed, 8,000 and 15,000 RPM. The table does not say which speed the torque rating belongs to, so settle the spindle against the material before ordering.

Z travel is 1,050 mm (41.33 in), long for the pallet size, which leaves room for deep boring and for long tools to clear a tall fixture. Rapid traverse is 60 m/min (2,362 ipm). Tool storage starts at 60 tools and is also listed at 120, 240 and 330, so a cell running many part numbers can keep its tooling loaded. Two pallets are standard and the count is expandable.

The control is the JTEKT TOYOPUC-Touch (FANUC 31i-B5 based). One caution on the table: its X and Y rows do not agree with each other, so confirm those two travels with JTEKT before fixturing a part near the limits.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

CAT50 spindle with 887 ft-lb (1,202 Nm) of torque
1,500 kg (3,306 lb) maximum load on a 630 mm x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) pallet
Workpiece envelope of 1,170 mm (46.06 in) swing and 1,600 mm (62.99 in) height
60 tools as standard, with tool storage of 120, 240 and 330 also listed
60 m/min (2,362 ipm) rapid traverse and 1,050 mm (41.33 in) of Z travel
2 pallets as standard, expandable

Limitations

Two maximum spindle speeds are listed; with the 8,000 RPM one, small-tool work in aluminium is limited
Spindle power is not listed, and the torque figure is not tied to either spindle speed
The X and Y travel rows of the table disagree, so those two figures need confirming with JTEKT

Best For

Heavy cast iron and steel parts up to 1,500 kg (3,306 lb) Large face milling and boring that uses 887 ft-lb (1,202 Nm) of spindle torque Tall or wide workpieces within 1,170 mm (46.06 in) swing and 1,600 mm (62.99 in) height Production cells that need up to 330 tools on hand

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What size of workpiece fits the FH630SX?

The pallet is 630 mm x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) and carries up to 1,500 kg (3,306 lb). Maximum workpiece swing is 1,170 mm (46.06 in) and maximum workpiece height is 1,600 mm (62.99 in). The load figure includes the fixture, so weigh the tombstone before the part.

02 What spindle does the FH630SX have?

A CAT50 spindle with 887 ft-lb (1,202 Nm) of torque. JTEKT lists two maximum speeds, 8,000 and 15,000 RPM. Spindle power is not in the table, and the torque figure is not assigned to one speed or the other.

03 How many tools and pallets does the FH630SX carry?

Tool storage is 60 as standard, with 120, 240 and 330 listed as the larger capacities. The machine has 2 pallets as standard and the pallet count is expandable.

04 What are the axis travels of the FH630SX?

Z travel is 1,050 mm (41.33 in) and rapid traverse is 60 m/min (2,362 ipm). The table carries two different rows each for X and for Y, so confirm those travels with JTEKT before planning a part that comes close to the limits.

05 Which control does the FH630SX use?

The JTEKT TOYOPUC-Touch, which the table describes as FANUC 31i-B5 based. No control options or software packages are listed, so ask what is included with the machine as quoted.
