New Machine JX-50
Equipped with the world’s most compact ATC tool spindle in its class, “NT Smart Cube.” A next-generation compact ATC multitasking machine that delivers stable, high-precision components across a wide range of materials.
Compact Space.
Complete Capability.
In recent years, demand for small and complex precision components has been increasing in fields such as the medical industry and other precision manufacturing sectors. As a result, there is a strong need to achieve high productivity within limited floor space.
To meet these market demands, the JX-50 has been developed as a new product that combines compact size and high speed, while being a tool spindle machine capable of simultaneous 5-axis machining.
Are You Facing These Challenges?
Limited Floor Space for
Additional Equipment
Although adding more machines is being considered, available space is already close to its limit. Building a new facility is not an option, and increasing machining capacity within the existing footprint has become a critical challenge.
Space SavingFrequent Setup Changes Slow Production
As order sizes become smaller and product variety increases, setups are required multiple times a day. Time spent on tool changes and program switching reduces available machining time, making it difficult to maintain productivity.
High-Mix, Low-Volume ProductionLong Lead Times Due to Separate Turning and Milling Processes
With processes requiring transfer between a lathe and a machining center, time is lost in setup, transfer, and waiting. Integrating processes into a single machine reduces cycle time and work-in-progress simultaneously.
Reduction of cycle timeSpace-Saving Compact Design
The machine has a compact footprint of 3,000 × 2,000 mm (4,264.4 × 2,378 mm including the chip tank and conveyor), making it highly space-efficient for a multitasking machine with a lower turret. Its design enables installation in limited space while maintaining high productivity, allowing greater flexibility in factory layout and production planning.
- Machine footprint : 3,000 mm × 2,000 mm
- Required floor space (incl. chip conveyor): 4,264.4 × 2,378 mm
Up to 119 Tools Installable
Supports High-Mix, Low-Volume Production
The machine features an ATC (Automatic Tool Changer) system with tools stored in an integrated magazine. The standard configuration accommodates 60 tools and can be expanded to 119 tools (optional).
The vertically arranged additional magazine increases tool capacity without enlarging the machine footprint, maximizing productivity and floor space efficiency.
- Standard : 60 tools / Option : 119 tools
- Increased tool capacity without changing machine dimensions
Enhanced Machining Flexibility with X-Axis on R-Spindle
It features an opposed twin-spindle configuration with an upper tool spindle and a lower turret. The added X-axis travel on the right spindle enables simultaneous machining on both sides without interference. This allows for more efficient and flexible process planning while supporting advanced machining needs and expanding overall capabilities.
- Oppsed twin-spindle configuration with an upper tool spindle and a lower turret
- The movable R-spindle shifts along the negative X-axis, enabling simultaneous machining on both spindles.
3.3-sec Chip-to-Chip &
30,000 min⁻¹ Spindle Speed
The machine is equipped with our proprietary compact tool spindle unit, “NT Smart Cube” (299 mm in length). With a maximum speed of 30,000 min⁻¹, it delivers high-speed, high-precision machining.
It also achieves an impressive chip-to-chip time of just 3.3 seconds.
- Chip-to-Chip Time: 3.3 s
- Tool Spindle Length: 299mm
- Tool Spindle Speed: Max. 30,000min-1
Software for Dramatically Shorter Cycle Time
The machine also comes standard with “ChronoCut α,” software that reduces idle time and optimizes both machining and non-machining processes, significantly shortening overall cycle time.
- Equipped with ChronoCut α as standard
Easy Tool Setup
User-Friendly Control Panel
The control panel can be swiveled and repositioned, allowing operators to work from the most comfortable and efficient position. It can also be moved close to the ATC magazine, enabling quick and easy tool setup.
- Movable Control Panel (Swivel & Reposition Functions)
Only 450 mm to the spindle
Reducing physical strain on the operator
The distance from the front of the machine to the spindle center is kept to just 450 mm, ensuring easy access to the work area while reducing operator fatigue. A wide range of optional equipment is available, including automatic and manual tool setters as well as a remnant ejector, enabling flexible configurations to meet diverse production requirements.
- 450 mm from the front to the spindle center
- Supports a wide range of optional equipment
Solving Challenges Like These
High-mix, low-volume production
Limited Floor Space
Frequent Setup Changes
Frequent changeovers are challenging, especially with labor shortages. Limited floor space also creates constraints, making a compact ATC machine essential.
Complex NC Programming
High-Mix, Low-Volume Production
Production volumes are relatively low, making it essential to use an ATC machine capable of handling high-mix, low-volume production. Ease of use in software is also critical to improve efficiency and reduce reliance on individual operators.
Long Cycle Times
Interference During Simultaneous L/R Machining
Simultaneous machining using both left and right spindles is desired to improve productivity. However, interference between the spindles makes this difficult, resulting in longer cycle times.
