Makino V56I VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a 3-axis configuration with travel dimensions of 35.4 inches (X), 21.6 inches (Y), and 17.7 inches (Z), allowing for versatile machining within a substantial working envelope. It incorporates a CAT40 spindle taper, a standardized interface known for its balance of rigidity and adaptability in high-speed precision operations, characterized by a taper angle of 7/24 and a nominal taper diameter of 40mm. The spindle operates at a high speed of 20,000 RPM, enabling efficient material removal and fine finishing capabilities. The worktable dimensions measure 41.3 inches in length and 21.6 inches in width, providing a stable platform for sizable workpieces and fixtures. With a 25-tool Automatic Tool Changer (ATC), the machine supports extended, uninterrupted production runs and quick tool switching, optimizing productivity for varied machining tasks. The CNC control system precisely governs all movements, supporting complex toolpaths and automation for consistent, repeatable results. This combination of extensive travel, high spindle speed, CAT40 taper tooling compatibility, and a sizable ATC makes the machine suitable for precision manufacturing across multiple industries, including aerospace, automotive, mold making, and general metalworking. Its 3-axis setup is ideal for vertical milling applications requiring robust spindle power, accurate positioning, and flexible tooling management in a compact machine footprint.
