HITACHI SEIKI has been manufacturing machining equipment and spare parts for more than two decades. The company’s huge knowledge base and commitment to quality has won it a loyal following over the years — making it one of the most respected brands in the world of metalworking. HITACHI SEIKI manufactures machines, parts, replacement components and tools for major manufacturers all over the globe. Among the parts currently in production at the company’s facility include bearings, driven tools, ATC arms, spindles etc.

HITACHI SEIKI specialises in vertical turning centres, high performance turning centres, horizontal machining centres and vertical machining centres. The company is trusted by so many manufacturers because it maintains a database of spare parts for all of its makes and models. Many of these parts are kept in inventory, which means large-scale manufacturers can access them quickly — minimising downtime and keeping costs low. HITACHI SEIKI also offers a repair and rebuild service that covers the vast majority of its industrial machinery. Based in Germany, the company has a very loyal customer base in Europe.

HITACHI SEIKI vertical turning centres offer a range of functions that cut both production times and costs. Machine loading and unloading is a breeze, thanks to movement across the Z and X axes. Machine setup is supported by graphic display, and a parts pusher on the tool turret minimises operator involvement. The HITACHI SEIKI CS 20, for instance, features CNC control, a maintenance-free main spindle with built-in motor, a hydraulic clamping device and automatic chuck operation. The other model in the series is the HITACHI SEIKI CS 25, which offers a very similar set of functions but has a larger chuck diameter.

HITACHI SEIKI horizontal machining centres are built to withstand robust and prolonged use while delivering exceptional levels of accuracy. Operated by CNC control, this series of machines includes malfunction diagnosis to cut downtime to a minimum. A hydraulic unit delivers efficiency, while an extensive tool magazine has space for up to 61 tools. Other features of HITACHI SEIKI’s horizontal machining centres include quick programming options, a coolant device, a pallet changer and integrated flushing chutes for the disposal of chips. The HITACHI SEIKI HS 400, for example, has a range of optional features and accessories, including a spiral chip conveyor belt, tool length measuring, a cutting monitor and advanced monitoring systems. The HITACHI SEIKI HS 800 is almost identical to the HS 400, but it has a pallet that is double in size.

The high performance turning and machining centres from HITACHI SEIKI are capable of huge output and efficiency levels, which is why they are used in some of the biggest manufacturing operations in the world. The HITACHI SEIKI Super HiCell 400, for instance, features CNC control with colour display, direct tapping, a 37 kW spindle motor, an automatically moving tailstock, a tool turret with drive system and high precision guideways for the Z, Y and X axes. There are also several optional accessories available for this powerful lathe, including a hydraulic chuck, a hinge-type chip conveyor and quick-setting tool probing.

HITACHI SEIKI vertical machining centres are built for efficiency, speed and mass production, which is why they’re so widely used in manufacturing operations around the world.
