2011 TOYODA AA965 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2011 Toyoda AA965 is a 3-axis vertical machining center engineered for high-production machining in automotive, aerospace, and precision manufacturing environments. Manufactured by JTEKT Machinery as the base model of the AA-65 series, the AA965 utilizes heavy box guideway construction on all three axes for superior rigidity and vibration damping under high-force cutting conditions. The work table measures approximately 43.3" x 25.6" and the machine provides axis travels of 38.1" in X, 25.6" in Y, and 25.6" in Z. The spindle achieves a maximum speed of 12,000 RPM with 25 HP of continuous spindle power, accommodating CAT 40 tooling through a standard automatic tool changer. The Fanuc 31iB CNC control provides the operator interface with high-speed processing, full G-code and macro programming, and five-axis interpolation support. The AA965 shares the same column, spindle, and drive architecture as the larger AA1165 and AA1365 models, differing primarily in table length and X-axis stroke. Machine weight is not confirmed in publicly available OEM documentation for this specific model; buyers should verify from the machine nameplate or JTEKT Machinery documentation. The AA965 is suited to production environments that require Toyoda's characteristic combination of box-way rigidity, reliable uptime, and consistent machining accuracy on steel, cast iron, and aluminum.
