Mazak VC500A5X VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Mazak VC-500A/5X is a high-performance 5-axis vertical machining center engineered for precision and versatility in complex part production. Featuring a robust trunnion-style rotary/tilt table with a 19.7" x 11.8" work surface and a maximum table load of 440 lbs, it enables full simultaneous 5-axis machining for intricate geometries. Axis travels are 19.88" (X), 15.74" (Y), and 18.11" (Z), with A-axis movement from -120 to +30 degrees and C-axis rotation up to 360 degrees. The machine is equipped with a CAT 40 taper spindle, capable of 12,000 RPM and powered by a 25 HP motor, delivering strong metal removal rates across a range of materials. A 30-tool automatic tool changer ensures efficient operation, while rapid traverse and cutting feed rates of 1,417 IPM maximize productivity. The VC-500A/5X integrates the advanced Mazatrol SmoothX CNC control, offering intuitive programming, real-time data analytics, and seamless integration with smart manufacturing systems. Standard features include a flood coolant system, chip conveyor, tool measuring system, and connectivity via Ethernet and USB ports. The machine measures 106.3" x 98.4" x 102.4" and weighs 13,228 lbs, with a power requirement of 33.5 KVA. Designed for reliable operation in industrial environments, it supports air pressure of 71 PSI and operates within a temperature range of 41-104°F and humidity of 20-80% (non-condensing).
