Capabilities

The Makino A55e is a horizontal CNC machining center designed for precision metalworking. It handles workpieces up to 500kg with impressive accuracy (0.001° indexing) and fast cutting speeds (84m/min rapid traverse, 50m/min feed rate). With 560×560×600mm travel dimensions, it's built for mid-sized components in aluminum, steel, and cast iron—ideal for producing brackets, housings, gearbox parts, and automotive components.

Industries & Uses

This machine suits job shops, contract manufacturers, and small to mid-sized metal fabricators who need reliable production without the cost of new equipment. It's also valuable for businesses scaling up from manual operations or entering CNC manufacturing. The horizontal spindle orientation is particularly efficient for high-volume runs and complex multi-sided parts.

What to Check When Buying

Before purchasing, verify the Fanuc control system's operational status and request full maintenance records—spindle bearings, hydraulic systems, and ballscrews wear over time. Inspect the table and pallet changer for play or damage. Confirm the machine runs through a complete test cycle on-site, check coolant condition, and ask about any recent repairs or rebuilds. With proper care, machines from this era remain highly productive.
