Products 58 MoldMaking Technology April 2015 VMC Well-Suited for Machining Large, Heavy Workpieces Well-suited for machining large, heavy workpieces, Okuma's Millac 852V II vertical machining center is designed for high rigidity, heavy cutting ability and high operability. The strong base column con- struction has optimally-placed ribs to counter chatter and twist- ing during heavy-duty cutting. Traditional box ways are used for all axes to provide high accuracy and rigidity over the long term. A variable-speed gearhead and large-diameter spindle bearings enable the VMC to per- form heavy-duty cutting and high-speed machining with high torque from low to high speeds. The large machining center offers a maximum load capacity of 3,800 kg (8,360 lbs), and XYZ-axis travels of 3,050 × 850 × 750 mm (120.79" × 33.46" × 29.53"). Rapid traverse is 12 m/min. (472 ipm) in the X and Y axes, and 16 m/ min. (630 ipm) in the Z axis.
