Makino D2 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The Makino D2 Vertical Machining Center is a high-performance, five-axis platform engineered for large die and mold applications requiring complex 3D contouring, tight tolerances, and superior surface finishes. Featuring a vertical spindle orientation, the D2 delivers exceptional rigidity and dynamic agility for demanding machining tasks. The machine is equipped with a robust 136-tool Automatic Tool Changer (ATC), enabling rapid tool-to-tool changeover in just 5.5 seconds, significantly reducing non-cutting time and maximizing productivity. The D2’s five-axis configuration includes a tilting/rotating spindle (A/B/C axes), allowing for optimal tool positioning and access to intricate geometries. Linear axis travels are substantial, with X-axis at 86.610 inches, Y-axis at 90.560 inches, and Z-axis at 43.300 inches, accommodating large workpieces. Maximum feed rates and rapid traverse speeds reach 2,283 inches per minute on all three linear axes, ensuring swift and efficient material removal. The D2’s advanced control system, Makino Professional 6, integrates a user-friendly graphical interface and proprietary Super Geometric Intelligence (SGI.5) servo control, which minimizes cycle times and enhances machining accuracy. This platform is designed for continuous processing of large, multifaceted parts, making it ideal for high-speed finish machining in die/mold production environments where precision, reliability, and throughput are critical.
