Okuma MB-5000H HMC

The Okuma MB-5000H offers state-of-the-art 4-axis horizontal machining of medium-large parts.

What is the Okuma MB-5000H HMC system?

To meet the evolving needs of today’s industries, we’ve invested in the Okuma MB-5000H, a state-of-the-art 4-axis horizontal machining center (HMC) designed for rapid, accurate, and lights-out production.

The MB-5000H allows us to take on complex parts, high volumes and tight tolerances with a larger pallet size and table load capacity than our MB-4000H.

Features of the Makino a51e HMC system

 

500mm pallet horizontal machining

  • Versatile for mid-sized parts across a wide range of materials.
  • Ideal for components that require multiple operations and critical tolerances.

Full 4-axis capability (B-axis rotation)

  • Enables multi-face machining in one setup.
  • Reduces fixture changes, handling time, and geometric inaccuracy.

High-speed spindle

  • Up to 15,000 RPM with strong torque for both roughing and finishing.
  • Excellent performance in aluminum, steel, and exotic alloys.

Automatic pallet changer (dual pallet system)

  • Load/unload parts while the machine runs.
  • Significantly reduces downtime and increases throughput.

OSP-P300M control system

  • Okuma’s intelligent CNC controller offers simplified programming, live monitoring, and superior integration.
  • Supports full G-code and conversational programming.

Thermo-friendly construction

  • Built-in thermal stability maintains tight tolerances over long production cycles.
  • Ideal for demanding aerospace, medical, and high-precision industrial applications.

Benefits of the Okuma MB-5000H HMC system

 

Fast, reliable turnaround

With dual-pallet automation and a high-speed spindle, we can produce parts faster and keep delivery times short—even on complex jobs.

Tight tolerances, every time

Rigid construction, thermal control, and smart technology mean we consistently hold tolerances to the micron level.

Efficient, multi-side machining

The 4-axis capability allows us to complete more work in one setup, reducing both time and error from re-clamping.

Lights-out manufacturing

Our MB-5000H is built for 24/7 productivity, allowing us to run parts unattended overnight. This maximizes output and lowers costs—benefits we pass on to our customers.

Lower costs through smarter machining

By reducing idle time, minimizing setups, and increasing throughput, we can offer premium machining services at competitive prices.

How does the Okuma MB-5000H compare to the MB-4000H?

The Okuma MB-4000H and Okuma MB-5000H are both high-performance 4-axis horizontal machining centers (HMCs) designed for productivity, precision, and automation. However, they are built for slightly different part sizes and production needs.

Here’s a breakdown of their key differences:
