MATSUURA MC-550VX VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust configuration designed for high-precision machining operations. The machine offers an X-axis travel of 21.65 inches, Y-axis travel of 15.74 inches, and Z-axis travel of 18.11 inches, providing ample working envelope for a wide range of part sizes. The table measures 29.9 inches by 15.96 inches, supporting versatile workpiece fixturing and clamping. The spindle is equipped with a CT 40 taper, ensuring compatibility with a broad selection of tooling for demanding applications. Spindle speeds range from a minimum of 8,000 RPM, enabling efficient material removal and fine surface finishes across various materials. The main motor delivers 10 HP for continuous operation and 15 HP for short bursts up to 30 minutes, supporting both sustained and high-torque cutting tasks. The automatic tool changer (ATC) provides 30 tool positions, minimizing downtime and enhancing productivity during complex machining cycles. High-pressure through-spindle coolant at 300 PSI ensures effective chip evacuation and tool cooling, critical for maintaining accuracy and extending tool life. The machine has accumulated 3,900 cutting hours, reflecting proven reliability and operational readiness. Indexing capability allows for precise 1-degree increments and ultra-fine 0.0001-degree full fourth-axis indexing within subprograms, enabling advanced multi-axis machining and intricate feature creation. This combination of travel, power, tooling flexibility, and indexing precision makes the machine suitable for demanding production environments and complex part geometries.
