Makino V33I‚Äë5XB GRAPHITE VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical machining center features a robust five-axis configuration designed for precision manufacturing operations. The machine accommodates a 60-tool magazine with rapid 4.8-second tool change capability, enabling efficient production workflows and minimal non-cutting time. The spindle is vertically oriented, allowing for traditional milling, drilling, boring, and tapping applications across diverse workpiece geometries. The XY work envelope measures 25.6" by 12.7" with a Z-axis vertical travel of 13.7", providing substantial working capacity for mid-sized components. All three linear axes deliver impressive rapid traverse rates of 787 inches per minute, facilitating quick positioning between cutting operations and reduced cycle times. The five-axis design enables complex multi-angle machining without requiring manual workpiece repositioning, enhancing both precision and productivity for intricate part geometries. This machine configuration represents a versatile platform suitable for aerospace, automotive, tooling, and general job-shop applications where accuracy, speed, and tool flexibility are paramount. The combination of vertical spindle orientation with five-axis capability allows simultaneous multi-surface machining, significantly improving quality and reducing secondary operations. The machine's rapid traverse capability and large tool magazine make it particularly effective for production runs requiring frequent tool changes and demanding high-accuracy positioning across multiple planes.
