2005 HURCO VMX 30UHSI VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2005 Hurco VMX 30UHSI is a 5-axis high-speed universal vertical machining center engineered for complex multi-surface part machining at elevated spindle speeds, combining simultaneous 5-axis capability with a high-speed spindle for optimal productivity on aerospace, medical, and precision mold components. Axis travels measure 30 inches in X, 22 inches in Y, and 20 inches in Z, with integrated A- and C-axis trunnion motion enabling full 5-sided access without repositioning. The 29 HP spindle reaches a maximum speed of 18,000 RPM, providing the surface speed required for high-efficiency aluminum finishing, hardened steel die work, and fine-feature titanium machining with small-diameter tooling. The Hurco WinMax control delivers full 5-axis simultaneous programming through conversational and ISO G-code modes, with RTCP (Rotational Tool Center Point) compensation ensuring accurate contouring during combined linear and rotary motion. Ultimotion toolpath technology manages velocity across all five axes simultaneously to minimize cycle time and improve surface finish. High-speed linear guideways and precision ballscrews on all axes are optimized for the rapid feed rates demanded by high-speed cutting strategies. The VMX 30UHSI weighs approximately 10,000 lbs and is suited for aerospace impellers, medical bone implants, complex injection mold cavities, and precision components requiring compound angle features or deep undercut access within a single setup.
