1988 MORI SEIKI MV JR VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 1988 Mori Seiki MV JR is a 3-axis vertical machining center from Mori Seiki's MV Junior series, providing a compact entry-level VMC platform from one of Japan's leading machine tool builders. The MV JR features a 35.43 x 17.71 inch cast-iron work table and delivers X-, Y-, and Z-axis travels of 22, 16, and 18 inches, suited to the production of small-to-medium prismatic components including brackets, housings, and tooling fixtures. The BT-40 taper spindle operates at speeds up to 6,000 RPM with a 7.5 HP motor, providing reliable performance for milling, drilling, and tapping in steel, aluminum, and cast iron. The Fanuc 10M CNC control provides G-code programming and standard canned cycle support. Overall machine dimensions are approximately 88 x 85 x 106 inches and machine weight is approximately 8,200 pounds. As a 1988 vintage machine with significant operating history, buyers should evaluate spindle bearing condition, axis drive performance, and control health before acquisition. Mori Seiki's construction quality gives the MV JR relatively long service life compared to many competitor machines of the same era.
