Makino’s 45,000-rpm, HSK-E32 spindle—based upon its core-cooling, under-race and jacket spindle temperature control system—virtually eliminates thermal growth, deflection or vibration, even during long hours of high-speed machining.

To ensure microscopic blending and matching of surfaces machined with different tools, the iQ500 integrates the Makino Hybrid Automatic Tool Length Measurement System (HyATLM). A 40-tool magazine ensures a wide variety of tooling to address an extensive variety of projects.

The user-friendly, Makino Professional 6 control with Makino’s next-generation Super Geometric Intelligence (SGI.5) software—developed specifically for high-feedrate, tight-tolerance machining of complex, 3-D contoured shapes involving continuous tiny blocks of NC data—ensures production rates faster than standard CNC systems while maintaining unsurpassed accuracy.
The iQ500 Precision Micromachining Center represents the future of micro machining.
