2017 OKK VM 5 II VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2017 OKK VM 5 II is a 3-axis vertical machining center manufactured by OKK (Osaka Kiko Co., Ltd.), a Japanese precision machine tool builder. The VM 5 II is a mid-size production VMC representing an evolution of OKK's VM5 platform with improved rigidity, spindle performance, and control capabilities. The machine table measures approximately 41.3 by 22.1 inches with axis travels of 40.2 inches in X, 20.1 inches in Y, and 20.1 inches in Z, providing a practical work envelope for medium to large prismatic parts. A 40 HP spindle through No. 50 CAT taper tooling reaches 13,000 RPM, enabling productive machining across steel, cast iron, aluminum, and non-ferrous materials. The OKK Neomatic 635 CNC control features a 10.4-inch color LCD display and provides reliable ISO G-code programming, canned cycles, rigid tapping, and helical interpolation. Overall machine dimensions of approximately 111 by 115 by 109 inches and a weight of approximately 16,500 pounds reflect OKK's emphasis on structural mass for damping and precision retention. The VM 5 II is well suited to job shops, toolrooms, and production facilities requiring a reliable large-envelope mid-size VMC with the build quality and longevity characteristic of Japanese precision machine tool manufacturing. The machine's balance of table area, spindle power, and speed makes it a versatile platform for steel roughing, aluminum finishing, and general-purpose three-axis production work.
