Hurco Companies VMX84SWI VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Hurco VMX84SWi is a 5-axis vertical machining center featuring a swivel head design that delivers maximum flexibility for complex part production. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 5,000 lbs on its 86" × 34" work table, equipped with a standard rotary table for multi-axis positioning. Its vertical CAT #40 spindle reaches 12,000 RPM with 48 hp continuous power, enabling aggressive material removal across steel, aluminum, and titanium applications. The VMX84SWi provides exceptional axis travels: 84" in X, 34" in Y, and 30" in Z, all achieving 530 ipm rapid traverse rates, plus a full 180° B-axis tilt on the swivel head. This configuration allows operators to machine five sides of a component in a single setup, significantly reducing production time and fixture repositioning. The machine features a 40-position automatic tool changer with swing-arm design for rapid tool exchange cycles. Equipped with digital servo drives, larger ball screws, and linear rails, the VMX84SWi delivers superior surface finishes and accuracy with patented high-speed motion technology. The unit draws 54 KVA at full load and includes through-spindle coolant capability. Its intuitive control system enables rapid programming and setup, making it ideal for job shops handling one-off parts and complex tooling applications requiring five-axis capability in a single machine configuration.
