Hurco will showcase its advanced control expertise at imX (booth 2522) in Las Vegas and emphasize the benefits of 5-sided machining. The Hurco 5-axis VMX30U and VMX42SR machining centers are designed with specific control technology to increase profitability for shops of all sizes.
While the control features robust NC capabilities required for simultaneous 5-axis, such as full FANUC compatibility, a 40GB capacity hard drive, 2GB of RAM, USB port, up to 2,277 bps processing speed, and 600 ipm maximum programmable feed rate, Hurco conversational programming makes converting to 5-sided machining straightforward, intuitive, and user friendly, which means minimal training.
In fact, the majority of 5-axis machines in the USA are used for 5-sided machining to reduce setup time and eliminate the typical flipping of parts that is required on 3-axis machining centers. Not only do customers increase the profit margin per part, they increase accuracy when they switch from 3-axis to 5-sided machining on a 5-axis machining center.
At imX, attendees will get one-on-one attention from applications engineers and sales engineers so they can calculate how quickly their investment in Hurco technology will pay for itself. In addition to 5-axis machines, Hurco will showcase one of its high performance mill turn machining center, the TMX8MYS lathe with live tooling and a sub-spindle, and the VMX50 machining center.
