HURCO VMX60SWI VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Hurco VMX60SWi Vertical Machining Center is a high-performance 5-axis CNC machine designed for precision machining of complex workpieces. It features a robust swivel head configuration, delivering exceptional flexibility and accuracy for demanding applications. The machine offers generous travel distances of 60 inches (1,524 mm) on the X-axis, 26 inches (660 mm) on the Y-axis, and 24 inches (610 mm) on the Z-axis, enabling the processing of large and intricate parts. The spindle delivers a maximum speed of 12,000 RPM and a peak power output of 48 HP (36.5 kW), ensuring efficient material removal and superior surface finishes. Equipped with a 40-station automatic tool changer (ATC), the VMX60SWi streamlines production by minimizing tool change times and maximizing uptime. The machine’s table provides a clamping surface of 1,680 x 660 mm and supports a maximum load of 2,000 kg (4,410 lbs), making it suitable for heavy-duty machining tasks. Rapid traverse rates reach 32 m/min on the X and Y axes and 24 m/min on the Z axis, contributing to fast cycle times. The VMX60SWi is fitted with a SK 40 taper, direct linear scales on all axes for enhanced accuracy, and a scraper belt chip conveyor for efficient chip removal. Additional features include high-pressure coolant, a 5-axis simultaneous control system, and a sturdy construction weighing 19,074 pounds (8,670 kg). This machining center is ideal for industries requiring high precision, such as aerospace, automotive, and mold making.
