HURCO VMX30UHSI VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The HURCO VMX30UHSI is a high-performance vertical machining center engineered for precision manufacturing across aerospace, automotive, and general industrial applications. This mid-sized machine delivers robust capability with a travel envelope of 30 inches (X-axis), 20 inches (Y-axis), and 20.5 inches (Z-axis), accommodating substantial workpieces while maintaining a manageable footprint suitable for most production environments. The machine features an 18,000 RPM spindle powered by a 46.9 hp motor, enabling aggressive material removal rates and superior surface finishes across a wide range of materials. This spindle speed facilitates both roughing operations with heavy cutting tools and precision finishing with fine-edged cutters, providing versatility for complex multi-axis programming. With a machine weight of 11,640 lbs, the VMX30UHSI achieves structural rigidity essential for maintaining accuracy during high-speed operations and heavy cutting loads. This substantial mass contributes to vibration damping and thermal stability, critical factors for holding tight tolerances in precision work. The machine architecture typically incorporates servo-driven axes with linear motion systems, FANUC or equivalent CNC controls, and an automatic tool changer for reduced cycle times. Standard features commonly include high-pressure coolant delivery, rapid traverse capabilities, and rigid tapping functionality. The VMX30UHSI represents an ideal platform for job shops and manufacturing facilities requiring dependable performance across diverse applications, from prototype development to production runs, balancing cutting-edge spindle technology with practical industrial reliability.
