2007 HURCO VMX50-40T VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2007 Hurco VMX50-40T is a 5-axis vertical machining center configured with an integrated trunnion table on the large-envelope VMX50 platform, enabling simultaneous 5-axis machining of complex parts within a single setup. The machine provides 50-inch X-axis travel, 26-inch Y-axis travel, and 24-inch Z-axis travel, accommodating large workpieces that demand extensive reach and flexibility. The CAT 40 spindle delivers 24 horsepower at up to 12,000 RPM, providing efficient cutting performance across aluminum, steel, titanium, and other demanding materials. The integrated trunnion table provides A-axis tilt and C-axis rotation, allowing workpieces to be fixtured once and machined on multiple faces while eliminating re-fixturing errors and dramatically reducing setup time. Hurco WinMax CNC control provides conversational and G-code programming with integrated 5-axis toolpath simulation, DXF import, and direct CAM post support. The UltiMotion motion control engine optimizes velocity profiles during simultaneous 5-axis passes, balancing accuracy and cycle time. A high-capacity automatic tool changer enables complex multi-operation jobs without operator intervention. The rigid cast-iron structure provides the thermal stability and damping essential for precision 5-axis work. At approximately 20,000 pounds, the VMX50-40T is a substantial machine suited to aerospace, medical device, and precision mold manufacturers requiring 5-axis capability in a large-travel VMC format.
