About this machine

a500iR – High-Speed Horizontal Machining Center for Precision and Productivity
The a500iR is a compact horizontal machining center built for high-speed, high-precision machining of complex components. Its rigid structure, fast tool changes, and excellent chip evacuation system make it ideal for automotive, aerospace, and general engineering applications. Designed to deliver consistent accuracy and reduced cycle times, it supports efficient mass production.

Specifications are as provided by the manufacturer or seller. Please confirm the exact configuration with your quote.

Is a horizontal machining centre right for your part?

HMCs with indexing tables and pallet changers, and horizontal boring machines for multi-face and heavy work.

HMCs machine several faces in one setup with an indexing table, clear chips well and – with a pallet changer – load the next part while the current one is cut. Horizontal boring machines handle large, heavy work.

Send your part drawing, material and monthly quantity, and we will confirm whether this machine fits – or suggest one that fits better.

Questions buyers ask

What is the lead time for this machine?

New machines are built to order. We confirm the lead time and the exact configuration – control, spindle, tool changer and options – with your quote.

Why choose an HMC over a VMC?

For multi-face parts and high volumes: an HMC reaches four sides in one setup, chips fall away from the work, and pallet changers keep the spindle busy.

What is an automatic pallet changer (APC)?

Two or more pallets that swap automatically, so the operator loads the next part while the machine cuts the current one.

Box guideways or linear guideways?

Box guideways damp vibration and suit heavy cutting; linear guideways give faster rapids and lower friction for high-speed production.

Is installation and training included?

Installation, commissioning and operator training are listed in the quote, so you know exactly what is included.
