Mitsui Seiki introduces a 750 mm 5-axis vertical machining centre

Mitsui Seiki's Vertex high precision line of vertical machining centres has been extended with the addition of the Vertex 750-5X.

The Vertex 750 offers a working envelope of 750 by 800 by 700 mm in the X, Y and Z-axes respectively; a weight capacity of 500 kg and a 2,200 by 3,740 mm footprint. The machining centre has a rapid traverse rate of 48 m/min, feed rate of 20 m/min; while an integrated trunnion offers fourth and fifth axes with maximum work size of 950 mm diameter and 650 mm height. The machining centre is controlled via Fanuc 31i CNC which features the latest multi-axis contouring algorithms. According to Mitsui Seiki, the accuracy of the Vertex line rivals its best jig boring equipment and offers the machining performance of its larger machining centres. Typical applications for this model include aerospace components, moulds and dies, and other precision components.
