Brother Machine Tools U Series

Brother's SPEEDIO U Series is represented by the U500Xd2, a compact universal machining center with an integrated tilting rotary table. The machine provides 500 x 450 x 380 mm linear travels, -30 to 120 degree A-axis motion, continuous C-axis positioning, and 14-, 21-, 28-, or selected 100-tool configurations.

Company overview

Brother's SPEEDIO U Series is represented by the U500Xd2, a compact universal machining center with an integrated tilting rotary table. The machine provides 500 x 450 x 380 mm linear travels, -30 to 120 degree A-axis motion, continuous C-axis positioning, and 14-, 21-, 28-, or selected 100-tool configurations.

Industries and applications

  • Integrated tilting rotary table provides a jig area up to 500 mm in diameter and 320 mm in height.
  • Maximum standard table loading weight is 100 kg.
  • Five-axis collision-free capacity depends on the fixture, tool length, table angle, magazine, and spindle package.

Technical and quote details

  • X travel: 19.7 in / 500 mm.
  • Y travel: 17.7 in / 450 mm.
  • Z travel: 15.0 in / 380 mm.
  • A travel: -30 to 120 degrees.
  • C travel: 360 degrees.
  • Spindle interface: 7/24 taper No.30; BT dual-contact spindle is configuration dependent.
  • Spindle speed: 12,000 rpm standard; 10,000 rpm high-torque and 20,000 rpm options.
  • Spindle power: Spindle motor output varies with selected speed package.
  • Tool capacity: 14, 21, or 28 tools; 100-tool U500Xd2 configurations are available.
  • Control: Brother CNC-D00; CNC-D00v on 5AX configuration.
  • Control: Five controlled axes with simultaneous five-axis interpolation on 5AX models.
  • Control: 15-inch touch display with setup, monitoring, and recovery apps.

Selection notes

Variables to validate

  • U500Xd2, U500Xd2-5AX, and 100-tool configurations have different control, interpolation, magazine, and programming specifications.
  • Rotary motion and workholding reduce the usable five-axis envelope below the raw linear travels.
  • Record the full suffix, control, spindle, magazine, table, probing, and automation package.
