Matsuura LS-160 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The Matsuura LS-160 Vertical Machining Center is a high-speed, 3-axis CNC machine designed for precision machining of small to medium-sized workpieces. It features a compact table size of 3.930" x 3.930" (optional 4.400" x 4.400") and supports a maximum workpiece weight of 44 lbs. The machine is equipped with a vertical spindle utilizing an HSK-E40 taper, capable of reaching speeds up to 40,000 RPM, ensuring excellent surface finishes and efficient material removal. Standard tooling capacity is 10 tools, with an optional upgrade to 50 tools for increased flexibility. The LS-160 offers travel distances of 19.68" (X), 9.84" (Y), and 11.81" (Z), with a B-axis rotary table available as an option for expanded 4-axis capabilities. Maximum feed rates and rapid traverse speeds reach 3,543 ipm across all linear axes, enabling fast and accurate machining cycles. The machine does not include a pallet changer, focusing instead on high-precision, single-setup operations. Its rigid construction and advanced linear motor technology deliver minimal vibration and high repeatability, making it ideal for industries requiring tight tolerances such as medical, aerospace, and prototyping. The LS-160 is engineered for reliability, ease of operation, and integration into automated environments, supporting high-mix, low-volume production demands.
