2009 MATSUURA MAM 72-63V VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2009 Matsuura MAM 72-63V is a 5-axis vertical machining center from Matsuura's flagship MAM72 series, built for simultaneous 5-axis machining of large aerospace, energy, and industrial components. With X/Y/Z travels of 24.8 inches, 24.8 inches, and 19.7 inches and a 24.8-inch diameter pallet supporting workpieces up to 1,760 lbs, the MAM 72-63V handles demanding large-scale 5-axis work with exceptional rigidity. A 12,000 RPM, 25 HP BT50 spindle delivers the torque necessary for heavy roughing in titanium and Inconel while maintaining the surface finish quality required for precision final operations. Full simultaneous 5-axis interpolation is managed by the Fanuc 18i-MB CNC control with AICC and nano-interpolation, enabling smooth and accurate machining of compound curved surfaces. This unit features a standard single-pallet configuration with optional pallet automation. The MAM72 series base casting provides exceptional thermal stability and vibration damping, while direct-drive rotary and tilt table axes deliver angular positioning accuracy within 5 arc-seconds. Tool magazine capacity of up to 240 positions supports complex multi-operation machining without manual tool changes. At approximately 44,000 lbs, the MAM 72-63V is a substantial investment in 5-axis capability, delivering the accuracy, rigidity, and automation integration demanded by aerospace prime contractors and precision job shops handling large complex components.
