Hurco Companies VM10HSI VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a 30" x 16" worktable with a maximum load capacity of 750 lbs, supporting substantial workpieces. It offers a 3-axis configuration (X, Y, Z) with travel distances of 20" in X and Z, and 16" in Y, each axis capable of a maximum rapid traverse rate of 1,100 inches per minute and feed rate up to 945 inches per minute. The vertical spindle utilizes a BT30 taper, delivering up to 20,000 RPM with an 11.4 HP motor rated for 30 minutes, providing high-speed precision machining. The machine includes a 20-position swing arm tool changer enabling fast 2-second tool changes and 5-second chip-to-chip times, enhancing productivity by minimizing downtime. Optional support for indexing or rotary tables is available to expand machining versatility. The spindle direction is fixed vertically, and there is no U-axis available. This setup is ideal for milling applications requiring moderate-to-high spindle speeds, quick tool changes, and the ability to handle heavy workpieces within compact travel limits. The combination of high spindle power and advanced tool handling supports a wide range of machining tasks with enhanced throughput and precision.
