The MAM72-52V high speed, large capacity 5-axis vertical machining center (VMC) handles larger workpieces than existing models and offers faster cycle times for higher productivity and performance.
Its maximum workpiece size is 520mm x 400mm with a load capacity of 300kg per pallet: a 23% increase in diameter, 50% increase in weight, and 75% increase in envelope volume compared to existing models.
The 4th-/5th-axis table, equipped with direct drive motors, achieves 50rpm/100rpm rapid traverse rates, enabling high speed and high accuracy.
The distance from machine front to the pallet center has been reduced to 564mm and distance from front to spindle center to 134mm, improving machine accessibility and setup.
The all-in-one MAM72-52V enables variable-part/variable- volume production and extended unattended operation, featuring a matrix tool magazine (130 tools/330 tool magazine base), tower pallet system (PC15), and chip removal system (spiral chip conveyor, lift-up chip conveyor) as standard.
The VMC is Internet of Things (IoT) ready, delivering measurable remote and real-time monitoring of machine status, condition, and performance. This optional feature for outputting machine running data to a host system is available using the MTConnect communication protocol designed for machine tools.
