A fast, flexible 5-axis machining solution built to deliver the highest degree of precision needed for today’s workpieces.
LEARN MOREMEGA SSS-400/600 5AXP (5-AXIS)
The high-accuracy, high-precision fusion of 5 axis technology for your micro-fine milling and small-hole drilling needs
When the job calls for high-precision cutting, you use a 5-axis milling machine. But sometimes there are other factors to consider, and not all 5-axis milling machines are created equal. For some projects—the kind that require fast, accurate results down to the 1,000th of a millimeter—you need a machine that’s up to the task.
The MEGA SSS family of 5-axis machining centers combine high-speed machining (40,000 and 60,000 RPM via the 400 and 600 versions, respectively) with micro-fine detailing capabilities, allowing your shop to reliably tackle small-hole drilling, micro-accuracy machining, and more.
Come see what a difference a true hybrid milling machine can make—for your customers, your shop, and you.

CAPABILITIES:
- Ideal for both small-hole drilling and micro-fine 5-axis milling through its unique “super hybrid” design
- Allows simultaneous 5-axis control with a special design for optical encoder feedback on the rotary unit
- Wide speed range (3,000 through 40,000 RPM for the 400), (3,000 through 60,000 RPM for the 600) via an oil-mist lubricated spindle and a long-life AC motor
- Capable of 5-second tool changes, thanks to 20-position twin arm-style tool changer
- Provides both high-precision 3-axis positioning and additional 2-axis indexing accuracy
- Operates across a wide speed range via an oil-mist lubricated spindle and a long-life AC motor
- Provides excellent shock and vibration dampening for high-speed, high-precision machining and greater stability via high-rigidity structure and Meehanite GC castings for both the base and bridge
- Built to jig-grinder standards of quality and accuracy with bridge construction that eliminates the X axis table overhang commonly associated with C-frame construction designs
- New tool measurement device location “Blum Laser” is relocated to an out-of-stroke position
- A pneumatic counterbalance is located on the spindle headstock providing smooth, accurate movement of the Z axis during high-velocity contouring and drilling
- Features an increased portal height (7.9”/200mm) for addition of the A/C axis unit
COMPONENTS:
- High-rigidity Meehanite structure
- High-rigidity HSK-E40 tool holders, allowing 6x higher clamping force than a regular BT shank for highly reliable work
- Roller pack-type linear motion ways
- Z axis thermal growth compensation
- Non-contact tool measurement (Blum Laser) with air-blow cleaning
- Dual Z axis balance cylinders
- X, Y, Z axis linear scales
- Spindle chiller with 7-gallon oil tank
- 80-gallon coolant tank standard
USER INTERFACE:
- Fanuc 31i-B5 super high-speed processing, NANO smoothing, AI Contour Control II, and NANO interpolation
- 1000-block look-ahead block expansion
- Super PC III function with 3-mode operation to balance speed and accuracy

“The Eagle 800 has burn technology that gives us a competitive advantage because it takes about half the time to burn and uses fewer electrodes, which saves both time and money. Our goal is to run it all day and all weekend. I like that we also are cutting down on our carbon footprint by using fewer graphite electrodes and less copper wire than before.”
