GEN MILL 5X-12 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The GEN MILL 5X-12 Vertical Machining Center is a high-speed, 5-axis CNC machine designed for precision and productivity in demanding manufacturing environments. It features a robust 18.6 kW spindle capable of reaching 12,000 RPM, delivering exceptional cutting performance and surface finishes. The machine’s travel dimensions are 34.65 inches (X), 23.62 inches (Y), and 25.59 inches (Z), providing a generous work envelope for complex parts. Equipped with a 40-tool automatic tool changer (ATC), the GEN MILL 5X-12 ensures rapid tool changes and efficient multi-operation machining, minimizing downtime and maximizing throughput. The built-in 12-inch trunnion enables true 5-axis simultaneous machining, allowing for intricate geometries and reduced setups. The machine utilizes a Big-Plus dual-contact #40 spindle taper for enhanced rigidity and accuracy, supporting a wide range of cutting tools. Roller bearing ways and glass scale feedback on all axes provide twice the rigidity of ball ways, ensuring stability and precision during high-speed operations. The GEN MILL 5X-12 also features thru-spindle coolant, a spindle chiller, and 4th and 5th axis wiring for advanced machining capabilities. With a machine weight of 15,708 lbs, it offers a stable platform for heavy-duty applications. The GEN MILL 5X-12 is ideal for industries requiring high-volume, high-precision machining, such as aerospace, automotive, and mold making.
