2000 OKK VM7 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2000 OKK VM7 is a 3-axis vertical machining center manufactured by OKK (Osaka Kiko Co., Ltd.), a Japanese precision machine tool builder. The VM7 is a large-format production VMC in OKK's VM series, offering a substantial work envelope for large prismatic parts, mold bases, and multi-part production fixturing. The machine table measures approximately 61.02 by 29.13 inches with axis travels of 60.24 inches in X, 29.13 inches in Y, and 25.98 inches in Z, accommodating large workpieces across the full table length. A 20 HP geared spindle through No. 50 CAT taper tooling reaches 10,000 RPM across a two-speed range, providing the torque for heavy steel milling at lower speeds and sufficient speed for aluminum and non-ferrous finishing. The Mitsubishi M635 CNC control provides reliable G-code programming, canned cycles, and rigid tapping across the full range of milling operations. The cast iron base and column construction of OKK's VM series delivers the structural rigidity and vibration damping essential for maintaining dimensional accuracy on large workpieces during heavy cutting operations. With a machine weight of approximately 25,000 pounds, the VM7 is a substantial platform that delivers reliable three-axis large-format machining capability. The VM7 has established a strong record of service in job shops, mold shops, and manufacturing facilities requiring a dependable large-envelope VMC built to Japanese precision standards.
