CNC Machine Ideal for 5-Sided Milling of Complex Shapes

Hurco's new VMX60Ui 5-Axis CNC Milling Machine allows for full 5-Axis milling of complex shapes and geometries in various hard-wearing, corrosion resistant alloys.

Typical end applications and industries, for such precisely machined components include, Homogenising Pumps & Valves, Oil & Gas, Motorsport, Aerospace, and others.

The VMX60Ui boasts maximum working area of Ø500mm and a maximum table load of 400kg. The CNC has a trunnion style machining centre which provides an ideal configuration for 5-sided machining, creating flexible and efficient manufacture of components with complex geometries.

Wall Colmonoy recently invested in this machine. The company believes it will propel the Precision Components business unit forward with new capabilities, improving on current 3-axis machining methods and building on current expertise of producing precisely engineered parts through turning, milling, grinding, honing and wire EDM. This additional capability can be utilized for rapid prototyping, tooling, low and high-volume manufacture of components with complex geometries.

Michael Shreeve, Business Development Manager for Precision Components states, "We're excited by the expanding capabilities to 5-axis, which complements our current machining set-up, allowing us to better serve our customers with a fully integrated approach for new product development, prototyping through to full production."
