This Mori Seiki SH-500 is a used machining center — sometimes referred to as a machining centre or CNC machining center — offered from Belgium and dating from 1998. Machining centers are precision machine tools designed to perform multiple metal-cutting operations such as milling, drilling, boring, and tapping on a workpiece in a single setup, typically under CNC control. Mori Seiki is a well-established Japanese manufacturer of precision machine tools, long recognised for its lathes, turning centers, and machining centers serving industries including aerospace, automotive, and general engineering.
This machine is equipped with three pallets, each measuring 500 x 500 mm, allowing workpieces to be loaded and unloaded on one pallet while machining continues on another, supporting efficient, uninterrupted production cycles. The spindle accepts BT 40 tooling to the ISO standard, a widely used taper size suited to a broad range of cutting tools and toolholders.
Spindle power is rated at 15 kW continuous and 11 kW, with a maximum spindle speed of 12,000 rpm, making the machine capable of handling a variety of materials and cutting strategies. The principal motor draws 56.6 kVA. The machine is controlled by a Mori Seiki MSC-516 CNC unit.
A tool magazine is fitted and holds 60 tool positions, enabling complex multi-operation parts to be completed without manual tool changes between operations. The combination of a large tool capacity, three-pallet configuration, and mid-range spindle speed places this machine well within the requirements of medium-complexity prismatic part production.
