USED MAZAK FH-6000 2002
The 2002 MAZAK FH-6000 is a heavy-duty 4-Axis Horizontal Machining Center (HMC) designed for high-volume production and precision machining of large, complex components. Manufactured by Yamazaki Mazak, the FH Series has earned a reputation for outstanding rigidity, reliability, and productivity in demanding machining environments. The FH-6000 combines a rigid cast-iron structure, pallet-changing system, CAT 50 spindle, large tool magazine, and the advanced Mazatrol PC Fusion 640M CNC Control to deliver exceptional machining performance for aerospace, automotive, heavy equipment, energy, and industrial manufacturing applications. It is particularly well suited for lights-out production and multi-face machining in a single setup.
The machine provides approximately 31.5 inches (800 mm) of X-axis travel, 31.5 inches (800 mm) of Y-axis travel, and 31.5 inches (800 mm) of Z-axis travel, with a 500 × 500 mm (19.7 × 19.7 in) pallet. The standard 4th-axis rotary pallet enables machining on multiple sides of a workpiece without manual repositioning, improving accuracy while reducing setup time. Its rigid box construction and precision guideways allow aggressive metal removal while maintaining excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish. The 2002 MAZAK FH-6000 is ideal for machining transmission housings, valve bodies, pump housings, structural aerospace components, and heavy industrial parts.
The standard machine is equipped with a 40 HP CAT 50 spindle operating at 7,000 RPM, although some machines were supplied with an optional 10,000 RPM spindle for higher-speed machining. A large 80-tool automatic tool changer supports complex production runs with minimal operator intervention. The machine also features a dual-pallet changer, allowing one pallet to be loaded while the other is being machined, maximizing spindle utilization. Many used machines include valuable options such as through-spindle coolant, chip conveyor, additional pallet systems, tool breakage detection, automatic probing, and expanded tool magazines for unattended production.
The Mazatrol PC Fusion 640M CNC Control provides conversational programming, full ISO G-code compatibility, advanced machining cycles, networking capability, and excellent CAD/CAM integration. Combined with Mazak’s proven engineering, the 2002 MAZAK FH-6000 remains one of the most respected horizontal machining centers available on the used CNC market.
