1996 MORI SEIKI SV50 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 1996 Mori Seiki SV50 is a 3-axis vertical machining center offering a slightly extended X-axis travel compared to the compact SV400, making it versatile for a broader range of small-to-medium precision components. The SV50 features a CAT 40 spindle taper driven by a 15 HP motor to a maximum speed of 8,000 RPM, providing reliable performance across aluminum, steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous alloys. The work envelope spans 19.7 inches in X, 14.2 inches in Y, and 15.7 inches in Z. The Fanuc CNC control provides standard G-code programming, macro B capability, and dependable operation for job shop and production environments. Box-way construction on all three axes delivers the rigidity and vibration damping characteristic of Mori Seiki's SV series design, supporting consistent dimensional accuracy and surface finish across extended production runs. The automatic tool changer enables multi-operation machining cycles without manual tool changes. At approximately 9,900 pounds, the SV50 provides solid structural mass within its compact footprint. Note: Mori Seiki merged with DMG to form DMG Mori around 2013; machines labeled MORI SEIKI are pre-rebranding era. The SV50 is well-suited for toolrooms, precision parts manufacturing, and small-scale production environments where a reliable, compact 3-axis VMC is required.
