MAKINO V22 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Makino V22 Vertical Machining Center is a high-precision 3-axis CNC machine engineered for intricate and complex machining tasks, ideal for small parts such as medical devices, mold components, and ceramics. It features a rigid and thermally stable construction designed to minimize vibration, rotational deflection, and thermal distortion, ensuring exceptional machining accuracy and surface finish quality. The V22 is equipped with a vertical spindle featuring an HSK-E32 taper capable of speeds up to 40,000 RPM, driven by a 12.0 HP motor (30-minute rating), supported by an advanced core-cooling and under-race lubrication system to maintain spindle stability and longevity. The worktable measures 17.7" x 13.8" and supports workpieces up to 220 lbs, with travel ranges of 12.6" (X), 11.0" (Y), and 11.8" (Z). The machine offers rapid traverse rates up to 787 inches per minute and cutting feedrates of 394 inches per minute, promoting high productivity by reducing cycle times. Tool management is handled by a 60-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) with an 8-second tool change time, facilitating versatility and efficiency in machining operations. The V22 incorporates Makino's proprietary Super Geometric Intelligence (SGI) control technology, enhancing machining precision by virtually eliminating quadrant protrusions and improving circularity at high feedrates. Its compact footprint and ergonomic design, including a swinging control panel and front-access coolant tank, optimize shop floor space and operator convenience. This combination of precision engineering, high-speed capability, and robust tooling capacity makes the Makino V22 a versatile solution for high-tolerance, small-part manufacturing environments.
