DA300 VMC Reduces Machining Time for Complex Production Parts

Inspired by the best design characteristics from both vertical and horizontal machine platforms, the Makino DA300 5-Axis VMC delivers the highest production capabilities for multi-axis workpieces in the very smallest of machine footprints. This DA300 combines a rigid structure and high dynamic motion control to significantly reduce part cycle times while maintaining very accurate performance. This highly productive machine is enhanced by an Erowa ERE pallet changer.

The New Standard in 5-Axis Machining
