Click image to enlargeThe MCR-A5CII high-speed double column machining centre from Okuma has compact auto-loading/unloading attachments for true five-sided machining in a compact footprint.
The solid double column construction ensures greater rigidity and closer tolerances, making this machine well-suited for general parts and rapid die and mould jobs.
It’s available in 15 configurations with different columns and table travel from 20-in. x 30-in. to 35-in. by 120-in. with a vertical travel of 25.59-in.
The high power main spindle offers 10,000 rpm speed and up to 40 hp, with a traverse rate of X: 98.43 fpm, Y: 98.43 fpm and Z: 65.62 fpm.
