Large Capacity VMC for Mold/Die Work
New Face of Mold Machining: The F750M/960M CNC vertical machining centers from Hyundai WIA are ideal for small to medium sized job shops, yet capable enough to handle high production environments that run 24/7.
5-Axis Machining with Unlimited Angular Movement
The VMX42SRTi 5-Axis Machining Center from Hurco has a rotary table with unlimited angular movement that reduces cycle times because the table isn’t forced to unwind multiple times during the machining cycle as other tables limited to ±360 deg are forced to do.
VMC for Die/Mold, Aerospace, Medical, Automotive Jobs
For an attractive price, the Bridgeport GX-250 5AX 5-axis vertical machining center from Hardinge handles small, complex workpieces that require closely held tolerances and fine surface finishes.
Economical 5-Sided and 5-Axis Machining
The UMC-750 machining center from Haas is an economical 5-axis solution to reduce setups and increase accuracy on multi-sided and complex parts.
Large VMC for Batch Production, High Speed Machining
The Vcenter-165 vertical machining center from Fortune International provides graphic tool management, tool life management in an array form, extra 10 counters, abnormal load detection, spindle load monitory, adaptive controlled cutting at constant loading, a smart workpiece measurement and calculator.
VMC for Extremely Fast High-Speed Processing
The new FANUC D21 RoboDrill vertical machining center from Methods Machine Tools uses the latest in control efficiency and can be configured for 3- to 5-axis applications with fully integrated automation and pallet changes.
VMC FOR High Volume Machining, Mold/Die Work
The 3-axis Tongtai TMV-1050Q-II ultra-high performance vertical machining center from Absolute Machine Tools combines speed, rigidity and precision with a 15,000 rpm direct-drive spindle, 1,890 ipm rapids and oversized servo motors and ballscrews.
Cost Effective 5-Axis Milling
The Mikron HEM 500U delivers an attractive price/performance ratio for entry into 5-axis machining, especially for shops that do general machining and for those that process parts for the aerospace and defense industry.
Honing Is a Life-Saver for Aerospace Component Maker
Sonic Industries, part of the Sargent Aerospace & Defense Company, uses an SV-1000 honing system from Sunnen to achieve performance-critical ID tolerances and finishes on life-saving fuse pins, reducing cycle times by 75 percent.
