Matsuura MX-520 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The Matsuura MX-520 is a high-performance 5-axis vertical machining center designed for complex, precision machining applications across aerospace, automotive, and medical industries. It features a BT40 spindle taper with a maximum speed of 12,000 RPM and a powerful spindle motor delivering up to 120 N·m torque at 880 min⁻¹. The machine operates on a Fanuc CNC control system renowned for high reliability and advanced multi-axis processing capabilities. It supports simultaneous 5-axis machining with a 5th axis trunnion table, enhancing versatility and enabling complex geometries. Equipped with a 60-tool automatic tool changer (ATC), the MX-520 maximizes machining efficiency by allowing extensive tool capacity for varied operations. Chip removal is managed via a chip conveyor system, ensuring clean machining conditions. The machine also includes high-pressure through-spindle coolant, improving tool life and machining accuracy by effective cooling and chip evacuation. The MX-520 offers X, Y, Z travels of approximately 630 x 560 x 510 mm, with A-axis rotation from -125° to +10° and a full 360° C-axis rotation, accommodating workpieces up to 520 mm in diameter and 350 mm in height with loading capacity around 175-200 kg. Approximate external dimensions are 148" x 89" x 113", reflecting its substantial build optimized for stability and precision. Built for productivity and automation, it supports pallet systems and robot interfaces for unmanned 5-axis production, notably reducing cycle times and enhancing workflow efficiency. The ergonomic design and Windows-based OS facilitate ease of use and quick setups, making the MX-520 a versatile solution for high-precision, multi-axis machining needs.
