OKUMA MC-50VA VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a 4th-axis ready trunnion table measuring 51.18" x 20.08", providing extended workpiece capacity for complex multi-sided machining operations. The machine delivers substantial linear travel with 41.34" in X-axis, 20.08" in Y-axis, and 22.05" in Z-axis, accommodating large components and enabling comprehensive part geometries. Rapid traverse rates of 590, 590, and 512 IPM across the respective axes minimize non-cutting time and enhance overall productivity. The CAT#50 spindle taper represents a robust, rigid interface suitable for heavy-duty machining applications, offering increased stability compared to lighter taper systems. Operating at 5,000 RPM with a 20 HP motor, the spindle delivers substantial cutting power for demanding roughing and finishing operations across various materials. The adjustable spindle nose height, ranging from 7.87" to 29.92" above the table, accommodates diverse workholding configurations and tool lengths. The integrated 20-position carousel tool changer facilitates rapid, automatic tool changes, reducing setup time and improving operational efficiency in production environments. Flood coolant delivery ensures effective chip evacuation and tool cooling during extended machining cycles. The onboard chip conveyor system manages debris removal, maintaining a clean work environment and preventing coolant contamination. This configuration creates a versatile production platform capable of executing five-axis machining sequences when the trunnion table is activated, enabling complex part geometries and multi-axis simultaneous cutting without multiple setups, thereby maximizing throughput and minimizing component handling.
