2011 HURCO VMX60SR VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2011 Hurco VMX60SR is a 5-axis vertical machining center featuring a swivel spindle head (B-axis) and an integrated rotary table (C-axis), providing simultaneous 5-axis machining capability across an expansive 60-inch X-axis travel envelope. The machine provides 60-inch X-axis travel, 26-inch Y-axis travel, and 24-inch Z-axis travel with a 66-inch by 26-inch worktable. The B-axis swivel head articulates plus or minus 92 degrees and the C-axis rotary table provides continuous 360-degree rotation, allowing complex contoured surfaces, undercuts, and multi-face part features to be completed in a single setup. The high-torque spindle delivers 48 horsepower at peak capacity with a maximum speed of 12,000 RPM using a CAT 40 taper, providing the cutting force required for aerospace alloys, titanium, die steels, and other demanding materials. A 40-tool automatic tool changer supports complex multi-operation jobs without operator intervention. Hurco WinMax CNC control integrates conversational and G-code programming with 5-axis toolpath simulation, DXF import, and direct CAM post compatibility. The rigid cast-iron base and precision ballscrews maintain accuracy throughout the full range of 5-axis simultaneous motion. At approximately 23,980 pounds, the VMX60SR is a substantial machine well suited to aerospace, medical, and precision mold manufacturers requiring large-travel simultaneous 5-axis capability in a VMC format.
