MAZAK VORTEX I-800/8S VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The MAZAK VORTEX I-800/8S is a high-performance 5-axis vertical machining center featuring a 39.4" x 39.4" rotary trunnion table that supports simultaneous 4th and 5th axis machining for complex contouring. It offers substantial travel ranges with 66.93" on the X-axis, 59.06" on the Y-axis, and 45.28" on the Z-axis, combined with rapid traverse rates up to 2047 IPM for efficient material removal and reduced cycle times. The machine is equipped with a BT50 spindle taper, delivering spindle speeds up to 10,000 RPM and enhanced rigidity for precision, supported by scale feedback systems on all linear axes to ensure accuracy. The tool magazine holds 43 tools with a chain-type automatic changer, supporting advanced machining operations including synchronized tapping, tool radius compensation, slope constant control, and hobbing without additional tooling. Further, it features advanced control options such as laser mill tool measuring and cylindrical and polar coordinate programming. The machine accommodates a hefty milling spindle workload (up to 66.14 lbs), and high-pressure coolant with chip conveyor system optimizes heat dissipation and chip removal during heavy machining tasks. Distance between head and table center varies from -0.39" to 66.5", allowing flexible workpiece positioning. Designed for aerospace, heavy equipment, and gear manufacturing, the VORTEX I-800/8S combines a rigid structure, powerful spindle performance, extensive travel, and intelligent control functions to achieve high-precision, complex multi-axis machining in a compact footprint.
