Machining Center/Vertical

Makino has created a new 5-axis version of its V33i hard milling vertical machining center, the V33i-5XB. The V33i platform provides extreme dynamic accuracy for long hours of continuous hardmilling, and the new 5-axis capability provides for reduced part setups and extreme accuracy in contoured shapes.

Makino offers the L2 vertical machining center for high-volume, small-part manufacturing. Combining a rigid construction, compact footprint and flexible spindle design, the L2 offers a highly stable and reliable machine platform for fully unattended, around-the-clock part processing, according to the company.

Makino announces its latest full 5-axis machine solution, the DA300 vertical machining center, reportedly providing the ideal blend of speed, precision and flexibility for complex part applications. Inspired by the best design characteristics from both vertical and horizontal machine platforms, the DA300 delivers the highest productive capabilities for multi-axis workpieces in the smallest of machine footprints.

Kent USA's best-selling vertical machining center is the KVR-2418A. This competitively priced vertical machining center has proven to be a reliable turnkey solution to many job shops, die and mold makers, and production facilities for years, according to the company.

The new F-Series vertical machining center from Makino Inc. integrates 8mm fine-pitch ballscrews and 0.05μm as standard equipment to provide enhanced precision. The series consists of two models: F3 and F5.
