HURCO VM10I VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a robust work envelope with X, Y, and Z axis travels of 26", 16", and 20" respectively, enabling versatile machining of medium-sized components. It delivers rapid traverse rates of 1,100 inches per minute (IPM) across all three axes, ensuring efficient material removal and reduced cycle times. The 30" x 16" precision ground table supports a maximum load of 3,300 lbs, providing a stable platform for heavy workpieces. Powered by a 15 HP spindle motor, the machine spindle operates at speeds up to 10,000 RPM with a 40 taper (40 CT) spindle taper for compatibility with standard tooling. A 24-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) accommodates a variety of cutters, with maximum tool dimensions of 3.5" diameter, 9.8" length, and a weight capacity of 15.4 lbs per tool, facilitating complex, multi-step machining operations without frequent manual tool swaps. The spindle nose-to-table distance ranges from 4" to 24", allowing for machining of parts with varied heights. Overall machine dimensions are 126" x 115" x 99", and it weighs 6,200 lbs, reflecting a solid structural foundation designed to minimize vibration and maintain accuracy during high-speed cutting. Feed rates up to 1,102 IPM support high-efficiency operations. This configuration is well-suited for precision milling tasks in aerospace, automotive, and tooling industries where accuracy, rigidity, and tool flexibility are critical. The combination of high spindle power, extensive travel, rapid feed rates, and a large tool capacity enables complex and heavy-duty milling within a controlled workspace.
